From Home Depot, I purchased six of these small tomato factories.  I was led to believe that with proper care they will produce some tomatoes each.  I am very excited.  This should be an eventful summer.  I am still up in the air about whether I like tomatoes or not.  I do not know if it will be a great summer where I am saying how awesome it is to have all these great tomatoes around or if I decide I do not like tomatoes and walk around cursing the day I got these tomato machines and why is there no off switch and why will they not just die.

Or birds will eat them or the plants will die and I will not have to worry about any of this.

TOMATOES:

Pros:

common

round

sounds like potato 

potatoes remind me of an amusing story about ex-vice-president Dan Quale

Cons:

dumb texture

dumb taste

I am not sure if it is a fruit or a vegetable

I think they die every year, so the seeds make plants so they never meet their kids.  Tomatoes seem to be the deadbeat dad of the fruit or vegetable world.

This is all too much.  I am going to go give the finger to a jar of spaghetti sauce.
