  1. Very much like when the county I'm from notably railroaded some people for a murder they didn't commit, then lost the lawsuit, and in the meantime dropped their insurance so the tax payers had to eat the full deal.
  2. The futures market continues to be nuts, locking limit higher across the board, 2 days after putting in fresh lows for the move, and after a sharp down move in early action. We are almost back to cash so maybe it calms down there.
  3. As I tell my wife, pork producers pay me too, and there is a lot of bang for your buck in pork shoulder and such if you know what you are doing
  4. independent egg farmers don’t exist as any sort of factor in the mass egg market. It’s contract or corporate production all the way down. So there’s no one there to bitch.
  5. I 100% believe that the bachelor farmer that was my Maternal Grandfather’s best friend haunts his old farmstead. Probably still out wandering around looking for arrowheads by the creek or trying to chase snakes out of the dirt basement
  6. I watched Nebraska win a football last Saturday if that counts.
  7. As more of a northern plains guys, it reduces the chances on train wrecks in shitty weather. Probably matters less for the southern plains guys.
  8. I think as an industry everyone calves 4 to 8 weeks later than they did 10-15 years ago. Don't have guys bitch near as much about health problems as they used to either. Feel like it's connected
  9. We are into the seasonal peak of pork production right now. (It's why this is usually McRib time of year) and bird flu isn't rolling for the season yet. Also biology allows you to ramp production so much faster, and we have some slack packing capacity in both.
  10. Still historically high at least. Next falls calves I would worry about though. Will have to see what they say about reopening the border this week.
  11. With all the political stuff futures have been a mess with 4 limit lower moves in 7 sessions in feeders includes expanded limit lower today to put us about 10% lower in that time frame. Meanwhile boxed beef is up about 3%
  12. I wanted a spot to note my niece finished 3rd in Wyoming 2A state Cross Country as a freshman.
  13. Caught another wave of buying to take fats and feeders back to all time highs despite up front softness in live cattle.
  14. Isn't Arizona a big failson/daughter school?
