     there are a few things i'm willing to just buy at the store.   
   raspberry seedless jam and blackberry seedless jam.  i like   
   both of them but i don't want them very often and i sure don't   
   want anything around here like a blackberry patch having seen   
   what they are like out west.   
      
     acres and acres of blackberry brambles is enough to give me   
   nightmares.
