Winter stinks

Are you tired of winter? Mother nature has found a way to fight against the lingering cold and snow we all treasure. The skunk cabbage is equipped with a chemical process that heats this early bloomer up to over 55 degrees Fahrenheit. Doing this, it will use as much oxygen as a comparably sized mammal. The plant is a bulb underground and as the sunlight period gets longer the skunk cabbage will even melt the snow above and around it to grow. When the leaves are crushed or bruised, it gives off a smell of skunk or rotting meat. In small doses, or two small bites, the skunk cabbage plant can cause burning and swelling of the mouth and a choking sensation. Eating larger portions experts warn can be fatal.

 

One day two cabbage heads, who were best friends, were walking together down the street. They stepped off the curb and a speeding car came around the corner and ran one of them over. The uninjured cabbage head called 911 and helped his injured friend as best he was able. The injured cabbage head was taken to emergency at the hospital and rushed into surgery. After a long and agonizing wait, the doctor finally appeared. He told the uninjured cabbage head, “I have good news, and I have bad news. The good news is that your friend is going to pull through.” “The bad news is that he’s going to be a vegetable for the rest of his life”.
