___________________________________________________
Today the market averaged slightly lower. Quality was an issue today again. Some hay was carrying extra moisture or was not attractive to the buyers. Buyers appear to be waiting for better quality which hopefully will come. Given the weather, I’m not sure if they’ll get what they want.

I was standing at a bar in an international airport when this small Chinese guy comes in, stands next to me, and starts drinking a beer. I asked him, “Do you know any of those martial art things, like kung-fu, karate, or ju-jitsu?” He says “No, why the heck would you ask me that? Is it because I’m Chinese?” “No”, I said “It’s because you’re drinking my beer!”
