A retired man went to the Social
Security office to apply for ben-
efits. He forgot his drivers
license to verify his age.  But
the woman said it was ok to not
have it.  She asked him to just
unbutton his shirt; took one look
at his silver hair on the chest and
said it was proof enough and went
on to process the benefits for him.
When John got home, he told his
wife about his experience.  She
retorted that if he would have
unbuttoned his pants, he likely
could have gotten disability, too.
And then the fight started....

The market was steady to strong today!

 

Children at Christmas programs:  Liitle Brock stepped
forward wearing a bathrobe and paper crown.  He knelt
at the manager scene and announced, *We are the three
wise men, and we are bringing gifts of gold, common sense
and fur.*

There were really too few loads to test the market, but
it was declared steady.  Remember, we will not have a
sale on Thursday, December 24.  All other December
sales will be held as usual.

 

Bobby, 5, had practiced his line for the program: *We
found the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes.*  But he
was nervous and said, *The baby was wrapped in wrinkled
clothes.*  His 4 year old sister, Mary, said, "That's not wrinkled
clothes, silly.  That's dirty, rotten clothes.*  The siblings
broke out in a wrestling match.  Mary lost the doll representing
Baby Jesus and it bounced down the aisle crying, *Mama.* The
fight was finally stopped by an angel, who bent her halo and lost
her left wing.  It was funny to all the audience, except the parents
of the fighters, Bobby and Mary.

Just before Christmas, an honest politician, a generous lawyer
& Santa Claus all got in the same elevator at the Ritz Hotel.  As
they travelled to the 5th floor, one by one, they noticed a $100
bill lying on the floor.  Which one picked up the bill and turned
it in to the lost and found? 
Santa, of course; the other 2 do not exist.

REMINDER:  No sale on December 24!! There is a sale
yet on Monday, the 21st.  MERRY CHRISTMAS.
Alfalfa sold steady with heavy volume.  Quality made the
difference in price.  Grass was slightly weaker with heavy
volume also.  Bedding was mostly steady.

 

Lewis was returning from a business trip near Christmas time.
The airport had turned a tacky red and green & loudspeakers
blared annoying Christmas pop songs.  Lewis loved Christmas
and tried to remain positive.  As he approached the check-in
desk, he saw cheap plastic mistletoe hanging near the counter.
He jokingly said to the attendant, *I would never kiss a beautiful
you under such a ghastly mockery of mistletoe.*  The check-in
gal replied, *Look more closely where the mistletoe is.  It is
above the luggage scale and is there so you can kiss your
luggage goodbye.  Merry Christmas.*

Alfalfa was called steady today while the prices on
grass reflect lower quality in general.

This quote is from one of Freida's favorite authors,
Max Lucado:  *When it comes to goodies and candy,
cherub cheeks and red noses, go to the North pole. 
But when it comes to eternity, forgiveness, purpose and
truth, go to the manger.  Kneel with the Shepherds.  And
worship the God who dared to do what man dared not dream.*
Luke 2:11 *Today in the town of David a Savior has been born
to you; He is Christ the Lord.*  HAVE A BLESSED CHRISTMAS

Very eratic market today.

   Happy New Year

 A few quotes from Bill Gates
Life is not fair - get used to it.
You will not make $60,000 a year right out
of high school.  You wont be a vice-president
with a car phone until you earn both.
If you mess up, its not you parents fault, so dont
whine about your mistakes, learn from them.
Be nice to nerds.  Chances are youll end up
working for one.

A NEW YEAR PRAYER:
For the New Year we would wish to have strength enough to battle with difficulties and overcome them; love enough to move us to be useful and helpful to others; faith enough to make real the things of God; and hope enough to remove all anxious fears concerning the future.
