Funny Quote

20 years ago

Found this on MSNBC the other day...thought it was really funny...

When collector Sian Tiong Lim, 32, was recently jailed for four months in England for orchid-smuggling, orchid expert Eric Hansen told United Press International, "There is a lunatic fringe to the orchid world, and a fine line between the average grower and the horticulturally insane."

I wonder if "not guilty by reason of horticultural insanity" would be an acceptable defense strategy?

Somebody needs to make some Horticulturally Insane t-shirts.
