You are sneaky, sliding a sunflower in there. I am sure you are growing other food plants, but might consider them weeds. Congratz Chris Pluto will always be a planet to me. Seti Ambassador Not to late to order an Anni Shirt |

If you can get to the seeds before the birds you bake em' in the oven. Long Sufferin' Marie knows how to do it. We have dill weed, but I didn't put it in, here it is a weed. We don't use it. This year we have a sunflower over seven feet tall, so we will re-plant those seeds next year. That is nowhere near the record, but still the best we have ever done. The potatoes come out next week. |

10K is 10,000 a year Mike. I think you are out by a factor of 10. Do you want me to accept 570K ? Yep, sorry. Missed a zero then. With each crime and every kindness we birth our future. |

Well My guess based on your facts would be 485,000 miles. I consider that very low. I had one car, a BMW, that I drove to 780,000 before I sold it. Your question got me thinking about how many miles I have driven in my life time. I have been driving since I was 11. By 14 I could drive a big rig and helped my dad in his trucking business. Most of my life I have gotten reimbursed or paid for miles traveled. So I keep records for ever mile driven since about 1980. Before that, except for big rig time, my records are not as good. But I did compile them. So in my 44 years of driving I have logged 1.9 million miles. Almost 4 times my guess for you. |

I re-did it, my new guess is 670,000 miles. Or do I only get one guess? |
