I’m not fond of blueberries, but tropical sun and splinters would likely be worse.

I don’t think it’s all that shocking that there’s a lack of work in the US. Afterall, they have crippled their economy in many foolish ways. I don’t know what global trends might be. I do feel that the problem is likely our too-comfortable western way of living. We take too much and are now paying for our greed. Perhaps it’s economic karma.

Oh, I’ve learned all I can from blueberries, I think. I’ve been raking them since I was 5.
