  1. The lack of easy access to back episodes of NOVA is a definite hole in my life as well.
  2. UP in particular, and railroads in general are a big bucket of fuck right now.
  3. It's tight but we are good for this season. Should have the capacity to build inventories domestically ahead of fall. Bigger than fertilizer is that the weather needs to cooperate here and in South America to build a cushion.
  4. Given that beef production continues to run above year ago levels, and we are seeing the best daily runs since 2019, I wouldn't worry about beef. Bird flu on the chickens should wrap up by early June, and pork is starting to close the gap a bit on the disease losses from last year. Feed availability is ahead of a year ago as well.
  5. Emigration and/or sex selective abortion
  6. This time you’ll convince everyone, I’m sure of it.
  7. 80 years of better damage control in theory too.
  8. Just look at the sheer amount of ordinance that it took to put the Yamato, Musashi, and Bismarck down.
  9. With the exception of the Fendts and the leftover MTZ's the bulk of the tractors you are seeing came off lines in Waterloo and Racine.
  10. Sometimes you’ll see identical post here and on Tigerdroppings at the same time. It wouldn’t take long to cut and paste through a bunch of boards and catch a pretty big cross section of folks
  11. Someone should ask Belgium how agreeing to be neutral can work out for a flattish strategically located country
  12. Seeing the Fendt's is great because they're the best for hauling tanks of shit, and now they get the opportunity to haul a different type of tank full of shit.
  13. Just got word my cousin and her husband came through ok in Elgin. Sounds like at least one side of town was missed by the roughest stuff. Aunt and Uncle said it’s getting rough now near Giddings
  14. Just checked on my pregnant cousin that worked in the path of the storm, they got sent home early and she made it back on her long commute to Elgin on time.
  15. It’s also the main brand of Toboggan runs.
  16. Not one of the headline names, but shared with the guy who got the first interview with Hitler after the fall of France and the number 2 guy in the Stasi at the end.
  17. Historically speaking that hasn’t been a major issue for the Germans.(I say as someone with a very German last name that pops up in uncomfortable spots in history books) Can’t speak to the Hungarians
  18. If I was a suicidal pilot, it feels like easing it into a hillside would be a better play than a nose dive.
  19. Me too. Being on an ag trade type trip, we all noted we were being loaded on the prop plane like you would a flatbed, and the airport was basically a ok farm shop. That being said they had the best ham salad sandwiches I've ever had.
  20. I've flown on a 737-800 on China Eastern Airlines into the departing airport before in 2017. At the time it seemed like they were a reasonably competent group compared to some of the other flights in China, and well ahead of Lao Airlines.
  21. Need to get them some more Fendts as they are the best for hauling tanks of shit, whether livestock manure, or Russian military hardware.
  22. When I was in Laos they said something 35-40% of US bombs didn't go off during the Vietnam era which is why we are still generously funding prosthetic clinics to this day,
  23. Or they could join NAUTO, the North Atlantic-Ukraine Treaty Organization which is obviously completely different.
  24. Wheat and corn working on a big reversal lower right now after being up huge overnight.
