I am off parole!

I can't believe all the doubters I have here on MyLot. Here are my balcony sunflowers as of yesterday just short of noon. I took both down to the parole board yesterday afternoon, and all charges were dropped. I even have a hypothesis as to why one drooped and its brother did not. I think the larger container of the brother simply retained more water. I'm pretty sure I planted the two on the same day. I was high as a kite until I got arrested AGAIN yesterday evening. But more on that another time.

Is that the same plant? Somehow I have my doubts, you replaced it with a new healthy one in the same pot, didn't you?

Yes, I managed to teach my class this morning. It was on Attachment Theory. I'm actually free tonight. Watching the Warriors game and hoping that if I stay home, I won't get arrested for anything.

You rock stars are all the same:
Track 08 from the 1978 album "But Seriously, Folks..." Because of some recent queries and concerns about the "type" or category of music that this song falls...

Life in the fast lane is difficult. I'd listen to the song, but I have a gig. Wish I had a body guard. All of those women tossing their Depends at me gets old.

You know that sunflowers are huge and need big pots. You are lucky they lifted their heads for the trip to the parole board. You are excused this time even though your explanation does not hold water.

It's unfortunate that one of the flowers had stunted growth. They both look pretty good. Just one of them decided to grow a bit slower. They're getting some sun and that's good.

They're both fine. I think the taller one could stretch its roots out a bit more because of the taller container. The shorter one had looked quite droopy the day before because I had been too busy to water them.
