There once was a time in my life when I would try to sow my wild oats. But... as I recall I never did have much luck. Although... as I grew older, I became much bolder. Whence... I began to feel my oats. Life was lively and energetic. It was such a joy just to be alive. Now... as I continue to grow older, I seem to be losing my oats. Life is more lethargic and apathetic. However... it is still such a joy to still be alive.

An oatmeal a day, keeps constipation away. I'm not sure what it does for oat sowing. First, I think I'll have to find a nice little furrow to plant it in. And then see what comes up.

Thank you guys for your feedback. Right now I am trying to recharge myself by feeding on a bowl of oatmeal. If it works I'll have my people get back to your people... we'll do lunch.
