No water.... no soil required!!!!! The wax process requires that bulbs are jump-started with heat treatments to trigger the bulb to sprout. That readies them to produce blooms in three to six weeks after they reach the consumer. The roots are first removed from the bulb. It is then covered in wax which prevents the bulb from growing new roots.

You are never too old to start buying things.

What modern civilization seems all about

Work has been work. How to deal with a sentence of slavery in society. At times I sit at my desk wondering what the hell am I doing. Sadly I think consumerism is given as a faux antidote to keep the wheel spinning. A fleeting moment, until the next product or model is released, planned obsolence. A mere cycle, work, buy, work, buy. But who am I to talk. I am saving up for a damn Leica. 2015.

An AVR local spots Consumers Produce at 21st Street in Pittsburgh's Strip District.

 

On April 20th, AVR operated one of the rarest moves currently on its system. An AVR-5 crew ran a single refrigerated boxcar to the last remaining produce customer in the Strip District at 21st Street. This was only the second car this warehouse has received in 2.5 years. What once was an extremely busy switch district for PRR is almost entirely taken over by pricey office, retail, and residential space as gentrification moves immediately east of downtown Pittsburgh.

Vertical shot of a photo I previously posted. This angle adds a touch of scale and I especially like the autumn leaves beneath the ATM (That's "cashpoint" for you Brits). Taken in London on the corner of Rosebery Avenue and Farringdon Road.
