I never knew a luffa was a gourd that is grown. I always thought it came from the sea, they call it a loofah sponge. ** throwing a frog in boiling oil and splashing everyone is not very safe. They seemed to think it was funny. Strange video
Yes ma'am, it most definitely is. We have a number of vines here at the farm. They can cover other plants and trees, like Kudzu covers Georgia! Anyway, you can break open the outer shell / skin, to find the Loofah / Luffa inside, as well as seeds inside it. @melvin west, I've posted this question before, with no reply from you. Can you please tell me in what country your videos are made?
A couple of things I dislike about the Internet and people that post one is the complete failure to take the time to fully explain a topic and other points that have impact on other general subjects nature and the natural are layered and everything exists because of water and it's interaction with soil air and chemicals we leave behind. The next is, one liners like dog droppings not enough information to make a informed decision or learn enough to use if and when your placed in a position to need it. Frog legs we caught frogs and cooked like chicken legs best to cut the ligaments at the back of the knee so they do not react so much when cooked boiled frog is tasteless taste ok skewered cooked over a wood fire, There only certain types of frogs that are edible, bull frogs, spring frogs I have heard them called leopard frogs. Toads are toxic and enedible / not edible. Though not in North America highly colored almost neon are poison even touching one or it hopping on you. can cause violent illness and probably death.
Oh, I see. So, @melvin west wishes to basically SPAM the forum with his videos, but does not wish to partake in any of his threads, otherwise. Thanks for that. I won't bother loading any further threads from this guy. I will add him to my ignore list, as well. For me, a big part of being a member of a forum, is to be interactive with the other members. Mr. Melvin, having posted 9 video topics, has a combined 9 total posts on the site. So, that makes him nothing more than a SPAMMER, in hopes of generating views for his videos.
Interesting thought. I wonder how he gains from that unless the host pays him per view. Other than that, there aren't many monkeys that live in jungle like conditions, tho' there are a few. Those few might gain some insights and useful knowledge from the vids. My objection is limited to his failure to answer questions.
More views, more interactions (thumbs up or down, as well as sharing), means higher ranking videos. In my opinion, he could at least have the decency to answer questions. I would be happy even with an "I would rather not say". But, to completely ignore a query is just down right rude.
No questions. But, thanks for the video! We are expecting a few calves to be born over the next month or so. I thought they would have been born already (June). But, I guess our estimates were off a bit.
