Alfalfa/Grass Sales Results

October Results


THURSDAY,  October 6,  2011
     40 loads.  Market steady to
weak.  High winds, but clouding
over & getting cooler this
afternoon.  Dare we hope for
rain?  Farmers are very busy
bringing in the beans & corn.
 
CHOKE TIME:
G*ma could not unplug the toilet
with a plunger so G'pa dismantled
the fixture; no small feat for  a non-
plumber.  Jammed inside the drain
was a purple rubber dinosaur be-
longing to the 5 year old grandson.
Painstakingly, G*pa got all the
toilet parts together, filled the tank
with water & flushed.  It didn*t work
much better than before.  While
thinking about what to do next,
grandson walks into the bathroom.
I pointed to purple dinasaur just
dislodged.  *Did you get the green
one, too?* he asked.

Alfalfaa market little stronger
today.  Generally everything was
stronger today, but quality on grass
a little lower.
Horse-sense:  How do you know
if your horse is polite? When you
come up to a fence, he stops, and
lets you go over first...

Today the prices reflect the fact that
hay quality was a lot better.  Grass was
average quality.  Demand was great
on all classes of hay.

 

The Dilemna of Works vs. Faith:
A pastor died and came to the gates
of heaven.  *Name, please, & what
did you do on earth?*  *Olaf Pederson,
& I served churches for 40 years!*  He
was given a robe & staff.  Next came
a New York taxi cab driver.  "Name &
occupation?"  "Hosea Baddrive,  &
drove for 7 years in NY," he grinned.
He got his reward.  Pastor said, *Whoa,
tell me why he got a silk robe & golden
staff & I have a cotton robe & wooden
staff?*  *When you preached, people
slept; when he drove, people prayed.
It*s results what count up here.*

Market was a little bit stronger today.

 

2 kids are in a hospital lying on stretchers
waiting to get in operating room.  Jake
leans over & asks, *What are you in
here for?*  Jimmy says, *I*m here to
get my tonsils out & I*m a little nervous.*
Jake: *Nothing to worry about; I had it
done when I was 4. They put you to sleep
& when you wake up they give you lots
of jello & ice cream.  It*s a breeze.*
Jimmy says, *Thanks; what you here for?*
Jake:  *A circumcision.*  Jimmy says,
*Whoa! Good luck, buddy.  I had that
done when I was a baby & could not
walk for a year!*

NEXT SALE-MONDAY, Nov.2.
Two sales per week now!!!

 

HALLOWEEN groaners:
Why didn*t the skeleton cross the
road?  He didn*t have the guts!
How do you make a witch scratch?
Take away her *w*.
What do little ghosts drink?
Evaporated milk.
What happens to a fast witch on a
slow broom?  She flies off the handle.
