because red is the must have colour for transportation this season. And as we also need a more eco friendly means of transport, this will kill two birds with one stone.

Tomatoes don't look right. On the outside they're fine. Tomatoes look lovely on the outside. But you look inside a tomato and something is wrong. Something has gone afoul inside a tomato. It doesn't look right, you know. It doesn't look like its finished yet for one thing. It looks like its in the larval stage or something. Its filled with seeds and a whole bunch of jelly looking stuff. Ugh. Get it off my plate! - George Carlin, Fussy Eater
 
Posted by Eryk Davis Ester on :
 
I agree with Quislet.

All other tomato threads bow down to the original!
 
Posted by Tamper Lad on :
 
24. Because adding wheels to tomatoes changes it from being an agricultural product to an industrial product. If I then put a microchip containing a poem on it it becomes a cultural product.

Thus I will be able to subsidize the production of my cultural/industrial product and put foreign tomato producers out of business because cultural products are exempt under the NAFTA agreement.
 
Posted by MLLASH on :
 
Yeah, STICK it to those crummy foreign tomato producers AKA "the MAN"!

Jeepers! You're just trying to goad me into a lengthy discourse on the similarity between tomatoes and the postboot Legion, aren't you Lash?
