Casaba, musk, honeydew…

but most of all seedless watermelon. Wife picked one up tother day and I’m enjoying it, and boy, do ti make the movements nice and smooth. Like a grease gun for a turdcutter, these days.

And it puts me to mind of my uncle Calvin, once again.

Had ten green thumbs, that man did. I often offered to give him a $20 and let him plant it for me, grow a money tree.

Anyway, calvin had hybridized his own melon seeds. grew watermelon that would blow your mind. Chaesed, but didn’t quite get, the Guinness record for melons. He grew at least one over 240 lbs, and falling short of the worlds record, we’d eat it. And these were not crappy melons, but sweet to the core, and red to the rind. We would use a big stainless machete he had to cut them, and a single watermelon fed the whole family reunion each year. And everyone had loose, smooth stools for several days afterwards.
