"For the earth which drinketh in the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth
forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed, receiveth blessing from God..."

"It's just a clinging vine, ma'am
Now don't you make a racket
They just wrap around your ankles
Here, take a stick and whack it!"( -- Jim Stafford)
