  1. Wheat's a weed, you spit on it and it'll grow. There's a reason we only grow it in the driest parts of our ag belt.
  2. So with March Madness coming next week, if we get a 15 seed over a 2 seed upset right away with that be enough to push it over the edge?
  3. Written by Houston's Rodney Crowell too. (got beat to posting it)
  4. and if we do, I'd prefer at least one of them directly detonated on top of me to wrap it up quickly on my end.
  5. As far as I know it's still in the keepsake closet at my Grandma's house.
  6. It's just too bad that my Great Grandpa that was in the Army Balloon Corps during WWI isn't around to see balloons having their moment.
  7. If a ship were to sink in the Bosphorus it would be magnitudes more disruptive than any of the pipeline sabotage
  8. Fun fact they stuck the Germans from Russian(Volga Deutsch) in Kansas and Western Nebraska because the figured they were already immune to depressing landscapes.
  9. Since when has knowing at what you are shooting at been an American Value
  10. They going to stencil a ballon and/or ufo onto the F-22 that did the shooting?
  11. I think they realized that heavier cargo zapped the range pretty fast.
  12. I'd disappear so thoroughly that my existence would be at the level of myth beyond immediate family and friends.
  13. If you're going to pretend you are going to eat crickets, sure.
  14. Guess you should have been willing to pay up earlier to ensure supply. The tightness in cattle is coming because of drought, and poor calf prices the last couple of years have shrunk the herd. On the bright side there is a shit load of cheap chicken in the pipeline, and hog numbers could bounce quickly too.
  15. Seasonal moves get exaggerated when there are problems like bird flu. Also everyone is going to be real pissy in 6-12 months when beef goes through the roof
  16. It's like demand slows down after Christmas baking season.
  17. Most of my Twitter enjoyment comes from bots tweeting old pictures of stuff and old Garfield comics, and the guy that has a dedicated Nebraska High School Sports history account, if Elon fucks that up, I can’t see myself sticking around
  18. Eggs are incredibly more consolidated that cattle, there is effectively no open market in eggs, and zero small commercial producers. Broilers are just as bad. Cattle are the least consolidated of all the livestocks, even as fucked up as the industry is.
  19. Apparently a very close call in an Omaha Target today. https://www.1011now.com/2023/01/31/police-responding-west-omaha-target-store/ Suspect got shot before he could do much or any harm today. Police statement was that a man in his 30's with an AR-15 and plenty of ammo was the suspect.
  20. The Bird flu has hit harder in the north, Cal-Maine might be a little protected geographically too where they can profit from others misfortune. My cousin that runs a Cal-Maine unit near Waelder hasn’t been super concerned about potential issues
  21. Manure can combust under the right circumstances, but it's more likely to gas you to death. The grain dust accumulation from the feed would probably burn a bit faster though.
  22. Wear on building and systems exacerbated by the stress of winter weather. Could have been as simple as a vent fan spinning a bearing and starting a fire, and once it gets going you aren't going to be able to do much about it. If it was a 100K unit it was probably stretched past the designed life span already.
  23. That is a little ass laying operation. My aggie cousin runs a medium sized one that is 1.0 million hens. Also, confinement livestock stuff burns down constantly every winter, it's part of the deal.
  24. You also came through a seasonal demand bulge with Christmas baking season. We've pretty well caught of up with broilers from bid flu, but it takes a bit more with layers. Milk futures are off about 20% since November, and that should continue to ease a bit. Beef and pork whole sale has moderated significantly, but pork will start the seasonal run higher soon with meh numbers overall, and beef eventually takes off a bit as we are headed into the tightest part of the cattle cycle soon, and biology is not your friend there.
  25. I have the 4 cylinder turbo, which is quick enough for the suicide merge I have on my commute.
