Let's Get Started

If you're reading this, you have no life; you're probably married, drive a Ford Tarus and claim 2.3 kids. You sound like my kind of people.

I bet when you watch the news, you think to yourself; 'What a bunch of idiots.', and you know that given half a chance, you could do better. You also go through periods where you don't care what is going on, because the microeconomics of your own life require all your focus and energy. This blog is for you.

The goals of this blog are simple: 1)offer reasoned opinion w/out filters, and political restriction, (I don't care if an idea belongs to one party or the other; if it is stupid, I will say so.); 2)act as a clearing house for information related to the ag community in Idaho.

My hope is that down the road some of my heavier-drinking friends will join me in this forum. Currently that is not the case, and I am left to travel this road alone, much like the great John Brown.

I welcome comments, but have the guts and soundness of character to sign with your name. I and all who post here will.

P.S. I also reserve the right to sound off on education issues, because only allowing educators to speak to ed policy is akin to letting drunks be the sole voice in debate over liquor laws. This relates to agriculture, because property taxes tend to disproportionately affect farm owners.
