Hey BA, thanks for finding these gems and posting them. Been spending a lot of time in the combine trying to get my last half of corn harvested...now we have snow and drizzle...fun fun fun. You asked about moisture...my corn is down to 12 to 16% depending on varieties and all seems to be very good test weight. I may end up with a 150 bpa farm average as my better fields are left to harvest. I do know that I am going to take Krafts advice and spend some of my loot on new farm equipment and quit subsidizing the government with my income tax payments. I can't have a repeat of this years disaster. I need shoulder surgery on a tear and am trying to gut it out past harvest but it really sucks.
Soybeans were the worst since 1988, I think a combination of late planting and drought hurt mine. Luckily I am two thirds corn so it is not as bad as it could be.
I sense that democrats feel defeated already, and hope that conservatives don't back off and forget to vote. Very important election, not just for the current years but for the supreme court appointments that will be with us for possibly the rest of our lives. If Bama gets four more years, it will be his court for our lifetimes and we will not recognize America. It is bad enough already.
The quote about Bama needing someone to run against to criticize is apt. This is a guy that has done virtually everything wrong, for the little bit that he has done, and has no record to run on. I think Romney saying four years...you have had four years, and Clint's empty chair metaphor are the signature statements of this campaign. If Obama had done things right, he would have four more years.
