Was it all a Hoax?


Did you read about the man in Russia coughing up blood and complaining of chest pain? Doctors thought it may be a tumour, but when they went inside to do a biopsy, they found a 5cm Fir sapling growing in his lungs instead! Here's where the plan may fall apart... If it is growing in the dark, how can it be so green? If a seed was ingested, how did it receive light to germinate? Is the body an ideal growing condition for a cold-adapted tree species? According to the internet this morning, it was verified that the story ran on what would be considered April Fool's Day according to the Russian Julian calendar, so who knows...I hate being a skeptic!
Spruce is looking for a full-time horticulturist this season. If you are interested, log onto our website at www.spruceitupgardencentre.com and download an application form. Take it in to Brenda for an interview. We are almost fully locked and loaded with the seasonal staff, so I'm looking forward to seeing some familiar faces and meeting the new ones.
Well, I better get on with my workout, its going to be a busy day, and I gotta be on the Red Mile by 3pm, or I'll never get a spot for the game! ...GO FLAMES GO!!!
