Fisherman has discovered the difference in beans, half runners have lots of strings, we either had half runners or stringless, whatever the name of the bean. Plant the half runners with the corn and you don't need any poles, the beans "run" up the corn stalk. I think some people call them corn...

Yes I remember that one. I won't give it 5 stars but for a while it was ok. Sort of like Sliders, it started with a good thing but really became bogged down just before it got cancelled.

Very COOL! IMO. :lol: I used to have a blue Subaru Legacy that I nicknamed the "Enterprise' because of the little star logo on the front grill. Subaru is a Japanese word for a southern hemisphere star constellation, called "seven sisters". I think they should add a new smiley to indicate nerdy...
