Good Mornin` it`s 1o° in God`s country, the ol` groundhog was right, but they say 50s are on the way for next week.  

Gun Show in Wells, Minnesota this weekend, hope to see some of you there.

Well, they are talking about doin` away with the state and federal gas taxes, I suppose that amounts to 50¢ on +$4 gas.  I would oppose that, number one 50¢ isn`t that big of a deal, if $4 is a problem, $3.50 would still be a problem and the roads repair still needs funding  JMO   And who`s to say this won`t get worse?   I see West Texas is up $4 to 112.60 after a hit yesterday. 

Corn is up 12 and beans up 16.  USDA cut `21 `22 ending stocks on corn 100 million, shouldn`t be a market mover but excuse to take some profit. 

Dow overnight down 300 after yesterday`s short squeeze.  The Dow is like a sawtooth these days.

Topped off semi yesterday @  Stuart Iowa $4.59. (All three station's the same)

Running both sides at same time and the dollar numbers were a blur on their way by.

Darn good thing the corn and beans hauled on the fuel it replaced wasn't sold by some "expert"

Lots of $4something corn being delivered on those pricing schemes. (And paid them to do it just as bonus pts)

Procrastination marketing is gonna cause a tax issue this year.

Something must be done to stop food inflation!

[BA Deere]

Well, food inflation isn`t the farmer`s fault, wheat @ $18/bushel is the main ingredient in a $5 box of cereal and the farmer`s gross share is 30¢.  Packers make more profit that the guy feeding out cattle.

$upply  chain  i$$ue$  are  cheap bar  talk,   excuse  for  retail  gouging ,  as  the  supply  of  $kinny ,  $limmed down ,  breakfast   cereal  boxes  seems  endless  and  ready  available  for  shelve  space  - with  the  box  &  inside  wrapper  costing  more  than  the  edible contents -  -  -
