12. I had grown up thinking those cacti always had two arms
I guess I had always seen them with two arms in the old westerns and cartoons.
It's funny how they seem to show up in so many old westerns and cartoons, even though they grow in a relatively small area in Arizona.

24. Cool!
I've never seen a stand. Have a few irons around here (since most folks had several to keep a hot one going all during the chore) but no stands.

I want to read the blizzard story (actually that whole thread looks interesting) but I am so darn tired tonight - will book mark for another time.

The wind, I hate the wind. It makes you grouchy and stupid. Sort of like driving. And what did I do all day? Drive in the wind!:silly:

19. The Austin Lounge Lizards did a song "Saguaro"
Edited on Mon Jan-26-09 07:31 PM by hobbit709
About one David Grundman who went out one day in 1982 to shoot one of them up with his shotgun. It fell on him and killed him.
