‘MISSION:IMPOSSIBLE’ STATEMENT
Good morning, Mr. Phelps. A secret detailed map of NATO's bad joke defense system was recently stolen by Baker’s Acres for the purposes of rendering the system useless. Your mission, should you decide to accept it, is to prevent Baker’s Acres from exposing loyal catalog readers to really, really bad jokes. As always, should you or any of your IM Force be caught or killed, the secretary will disavow any knowledge of your actions. This recording will self-destruct in five seconds. Good luck, Jim.

MISSION CREEP STATEMENT

'Mission Creep' is a hip new term.   It is the process by which a mission's methods and goals gradually change over time.   Many of our customers experience this, having stopped in for just a few plants and eventually leaving with more than a trunkful.

MISSION CONTROL STATEMENT

Ground control to Major Tom. Ground control to Major Tom:

Take your protein pills and put your helmet on

Ground control to Major Tom: Commencing countdown engine's on

Check ignition and may God's love be with you. – David Bowie, ‘Space Oddity’

FISSION STATEMENT

There is much confusion between fission and fusion.  Nuclear fission is when a massive nucleus splits into smaller nuclei with a release of energy and fusion is smaller nuclei combining to form massive nuclei, again with the energy release.  Either way, somethin’ gets blowed up and blowed up good.

FISHIN' STATEMENT

After several disastrous fish kills due to excessive pond scum, the pond is now clean and fishable once again.  Unfortunately, all the lunker bass have gone to that big fish emulsion plant in the sky, but there are still some good (but smaller) fighters in there.  Fishermen are welcome.  Please watch your kids.

OMISSION STATEMENT
Due to space limitations, this year's Omission Statement has been omitted.
