While I'm at it, I'll just put this kudzu plant right over here so you'll have some greenery to brighten up the place. ;D
I think Pescado's place is the one place on earth where kudzu wouldn't dare grow. And Greg, your southerness is showing. ;)

So I'm guessing kudzu is a parasite (I'm having one of my brighter evenings, I guess).
By the way Reg, talking about southern things, I just inspected one of your brilliant southern houses more closely. I'm getting ready to move a sim into it; how on earth did you get the porch to hang out over the water like that. I am simply amazed. I'm really beginning to wish there was more greenery available so you (cough) can build even more houses.

Well, being from the south myself, I know what kudzu is, and most people don't want it. I looked it up in our favorite site, Dictionary.com, and it says it well:
An eastern Asian vine (Pueraria lobata) having compound leaves and clusters of reddish-purple flowers. It is grown for fodder, forage, and root starch, and is a widespread weed in the southeast United States.
I have never seen any flowers though. It was originally planted to help cover the bare patches of red clay dirt that is commonly seen around Alabama where I grew up. In Japan, I was told there was a beetle that keeps it under control there, but here it just grows wildly out of control. I have seen pictures of houses covered in it. A fine example of what happens when you remove something from its natural habitat.
J. M. Pescado:
I tell you people, kudzu wouldn't a problem if you simply got more goats. As a side benefit, you could then sacrifice the excess goats to me. Goats love kudzu.

And the dictionary.com failed to mention it chokes the ever-living daylights out of anything it creeps onto so you end up with tree shaped kudzu topiary and the underlying trees are dead. Heeeeeyyyy, maybe Greg was thinking of making a JM topiary??? :o
