Like everything was perfect when he arrived. Stay tuned. You ain&#039;t seen nothing yet. By 2012 you&#039;ll be curled up in a fetal position under your bed. To the victor goes the spoils. The loser is relegated to petty irrelavancy.</description>

I&#039;m sure! But on second thought, probably. You folks are rather petty and good at cutting off your noses to spite your faces. By shutting down your businesses you&#039;ve opened up opportunities for the libs and immigrants.</description>

		<description>&quot;They also said the oldest tree on record, was an Yew. The stuff of long bows!&quot;

Check out some of the pictures of these old trees on the &#039;net.  They are amazing.  Yew bows were made from the shoots that grow off older trees when you either cut them off low to the ground, or when you cut them higher up (to keep deer from eating them) and now those old trees that were cut down young have amazing shapes after growing for a few hundred years.</description>

		<description>UsinUK, The interview was really cool.  They took the reporter to an English Oak that was 400 years old and as described, it sounded like a tree out of Harry Potter.  They also said the oldest tree on record, was an Yew.  The stuff of long bows!  My Gawd, what history!  Now there are a couple of trees I&#039;d like to hug!</description>
