Roses

By request, here is a plant fact on roses, albeit a bit late.

According to fossil records, roses go back about 60 million years ago, and are said to have originated in Asia; then migrating across North America and Europe. Because of their vast array of collors, fragrances, and forms, they have been seen in cultures all throughout history. In ancient Rome, they were especially prized, importing them from Egypt's cut flower industry. As the Christians eventually took over, they saw them as a symbol of Rome's debauchery, and rejected them, until later, incorperating them into their society as well. Roses remain one of the most genetically engineered plant species around, with more than 25,000 types, by hybridizing species from all over the world; and have now been voted the national flower of the United States.

No, we're currently at war. War affords no time for leisure.

Posted by: Jay at November 18, 2003 06:31 PM

Alright, seriously, the gayness on both sides needs to stop now.

ok...so your at war with steph...what is your reasons for posting comments here? poor jay with his plant facts has nothing to do with you and steph and john and your war...its getting a little old now. somebody insulted a band you liked...you insulted them, and its been going back and forth now for what? havent you run out of insults yet? is it really worth getting yourself all worked up over a person you have never even met?

its not worth the headache angela, logic and reason are the first casualties of war

as easy as it is for you to cut and paste lyrics from your ICP fanclub website; it is just as easy for me to expunge them from this site. i really dont know what it is your trying to prove in wanting us to give up, when i have never crossed you, and it is my site that you are posting to. seriously, stop.

Posted by: Jay at November 21, 2003 08:50 AM

has it really stopped? or are you just getting rid of anything they post???

Posted by: Angela at November 22, 2003 04:22 PM

i've been deleting their posts, but i hope it has finally stopped

Posted by: Jay at November 23, 2003 01:55 AM

Well, as you heard kate broke down one of them. so maybe its finally over. i would love to know if they are still like actually arguing about this idiotic crap though. we should contact sharon osbourn and have her look at this. i hope i'm right in saying this, but she HATES ICP. and they hate her and Ozzy. who could possibly hate sharon and ozzy? i think they like got into a fight on howard stern once.

Posted by: Angela at November 23, 2003 09:10 AM

haha thats great, although, their pretty messed up too

Posted by: Jay at November 23, 2003 12:19 PM

I'd love to know who she broke down, because if it's one of the people that was being all nice to her, she was just used as a joke afterward, and they hate Sharon Osbourne, but they like ozzy. And it was Sharon that popped her mouth off first on all that.

Posted by: craigdeangello at November 23, 2003 11:34 PM

So you're using her as a joke because she doesn't stoop to your pathetic level?

And you call US ignorant?

Hah, you've just made yourselves look like even bigger morons. And I didn't think that was possible. You've just taken everything you said on this site about pre-judging people, etc. and just destroyed it. I can't even laugh at you anymore because you're that pathetic.

Thanks again for proving my point, and its almost unbelievable that you still care enough to be visiting this site and posting. Really, I don't think someone could get so worked up if you called their religion stupid (and they didn't to this extent actually). You people are officially the dumbest, most easily riled people who have ever visited this site. That's something to be proud of.

If you would be unloved and forgotten, be reasonable.
