I need to rant for a minute.
Some lowlife stole (yes, STOLE) our one & only lime on our cute, Dead-Man-Walking lime tree, Bertram. Poor little Bertram is planted so close to death row (don't get confused with Dead Man Walking. Death row is our back line of foliage/weeds that gets as much water as Mother Nature can provide in a drought) and doesn't get nearly enough water that he needs. Yet, he still managed to produce one beautifully perfect lime this year. And some scum-sucking troll took it. Bastages!
The reason he is dead man walking is because we (meaning south Floridians) currently have a Canker Crisis going on. Every other day, some bullshit politician, who is paid off by Big Citrus, is making some global decisions about which perfectly healthy, privately owned citrus trees need to be removed with serious prejudice. Then, on alternate days, there are some judges (who not only remember the constitution but actually enforce it) who make global rulings such as, "The government cannot just come into Wendy's yard without permission and start ganking her trees." There is some unsubstantiated research that someone pulled out of his arse that says all citrus trees, whether healthy or not, that are within 1900 feet of an infected tree need to be killed. 1900 feet is a long fucking distance! Poor Bertram! :-(
