Nothing like lean meat protein after two hours of mowing the lawn, what kind of meat protein, that doesn’t matter as long as it is meat protein and not soy protein.  Just remember when something strange happens, stranger things have happened, this is some good advice, especially if that strange thing that happened did so while mowing the lawn, I mean really how strange can it really be if you are mowing the lawn.  This is where Johnny Appleseed comes into the picture, because I assume you know, the lawn mowing was happening in the apple orchard, where else would you find Johnny Appleseed?  And that is a funny name for him, since all he really does is pick apples as a summer job and when he does eat them he doesn’t eat the apple seeds, just the meaty part of the apple, speaking of which he really enjoys meat protein as well, his particular favorite, maybe his ultimate favorite is a t-bone steak that is seared on each side for about three minutes, no shorter no longer, exactly three minutes or he just won’t eat it, he is that picky.  How can he be that picky when his summer job is picking apples in the apple orchard, well it is because he is also a secret, now the secret will be out, multi-millionaire in his spare time, he does the apple picking in the summer to keep fit and enjoy the beautiful summer weather.  The summer weather this summer was beautiful too, mostly in the mid eighties with no humidity and only showers in the evening hours, so it sounds like Mr. Appleseed has a pretty good gig going picking apples during the summer.  How did me make his millions you may ask, and you can ask, but he won’t tell you, so I will tell you right now, he sold his antique John Deere tractor collection to one of the most famous jack rabbits of all time, Peter Cottontail, who now uses them to plow the fields of his cabbage and carrot farms.  Why would Peter Cottontail buy antique tractors to plow his field, well he is a bit of an eccentric jack rabbit and thinks that the antique John Deere tractors are better than the new John Deere tractors.  The mower used to mow the apple orchard is also an antique John Deere lawn mower, it would seem like they are everywhere these days, but they were very rare when Johnny Appleseed sold his collection to Peter Cottontail for millions of dollars.  Now that Johnny Appleseed is done picking apples for the day it is time for him to jet away on his Ducati, a nice motorcycle that he is always getting comments on when he takes it out for a ride on a beautiful sunny day, he doesn’t get any comments when he takes it out for a ride on a rainy day though.  Mr. Appleseed believes the best way to live life is to enjoy the passage of time, most often in the apple orchard or on the seat of his Ducati.
