And he also said "obstain" instead of "abstain". And I thought Steve was all knowing.

Why would fruit be measured by time? And why would a "day" be relevant to fruit?

A fruit usually has seeds in it being as that it is the ovary of a flower/plant...

Vegetibles are more often than not simply roots of flowers/plans and are labeled that way for grocery reasons to distinguish these from the sweeter "fruits"....

....So it has been written.... so it is told

Um.......

Did you guys know Skuba is starting up a band. You would think it's a heavy metal band, but in the end, it's him making recordings into his phone, the playing them back and singing along. If you catch him at the track have him do Mortal Combat. It's quality.

Fruit or Vegetable?
An interesting aspect of tomato history is the classic debate: Is the Tomato a Fruit or Vegetable? I guess that depends on whom you are asking. By definition, a fruit is the edible plant structure of a mature ovary of a flowering plant, usually eaten raw; some are sweet like apples, but the ones that are not sweet such as tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, etc. are commonly called vegetables. Botanists claim that a fruit is any fleshy material that covers a seed or seeds where as a horticulturists point of view would pose that the tomato is a vegetable plant. Until the late 1800's the tomato was classified as a fruit to avoid taxation, but this was changed after a Supreme Court ruling that the tomato is a vegetable and should be taxed accordingly.

When it is all said and done, the history of the tomato has classified as a poisonous beautiful plant, a tax-avoiding fruit, and a taxable vegetable. Nonetheless, the tomato is the most popular vegetable in America and enjoyed by millions all over the world.
