| Introduction | When my friend told me that his family had a lemon tree in their backyard, I started singing the song about how lemon trees are pretty and their flowers are nice, but you can't eat the fruit. He said they made lemonade out of their lemons. I said, "Well, that's very optimistic of you." |
