Trees! Everywhere! Be proud!

How to plant a tree, grassroots version: - Take solo, group and family pictures holding the spade and watering can. - Chop the soil that had been piled up around the tree for a minute. Empty watering can into what is already mud. -Take more pictures of yourselves. Why not. You just planted a whole tree. You should be proud. If you follow these instructions, ten minutes later, a Bangala will sprout from the soil and actually plant the tree properly.

409 is where it's at.

Formula 409 is an amazing cleaner, even better than Kao MagiClean. No residue. It is also, strangely, only available in atas supermarkets. Can't make the trip? Here's your shitty Clorox Cleansnothing. Now, they seem to know they have good stuff on their hands. They've had the Glass cleaning version for a while now, and now there's the stone and wood version.

I wanted two of the usual, general purpose stuff. Wife wanted one and one Glass. I don't understand.

1. We don't have very much cleanable glass. It's practically down to the one pane in the bathroom. We have many General Surfaces in the house. Just look at all these damned fine Generals.

2. I'm the one who does the bulk of the cleaning. It's like her going to buy pads and me saying she should use something different.

3. General can clean glass for sure. In the Venn diagram of surfaces... Nevermind. Can glass cleaner clean general? Not sure. Maybe. Do you really want to feel retarded each time you spray the glass cleaner on wood. On stone. On marble, formica or dog?

I think that's probably how I'm going to have to use up the glass cleaner. A daily spray and wipe down of the dogs.
