yay farming. we need it, some people have fun with it. without commercial farmers, all those less endowed with the ability to farm would most likely die, unless they like somehow developed a way to live without eating. that would be some messed up sh!t right there. if anyone knows something bout this, please share, i'm all ears. unless i'm not all ears, in which case you've still got 2 to talk to. there's a lot of "to"s in that sentence. wow i'm weird.
anyways. farming. so much fun. speaker this week, you guessed it, was a commercial farmer by the name of billy bob jones. haha i'm just kidding, that isn't his real name. it'd be spooky though if it was, right? so this farmer, William Lee (hey Billy is short for William, coincidence? most probably so. moving on.) on his area, he grows 4 different crops: cotton, wheat, soybeans, and corn.
cotton used to be high priced so they planted a lot. now it's not so high priced. what are they going to do? how should i know i'm not a farmer.
wheat and soybeans, didn't talk bout that much.
corn. aha here we go. corn is used for a lot, and now it's priced high because of it being put in gas and such, so they planted a lot of it and are now in for some major $$ <money>. but only about 10% of the corn actually goes to corn, the rest goes to like farms animals to eat. coolio for them. i like corn on the cob the best, it just doesn't taste as good when it's all "yay i'm free falling, gonna fall off your fork now" and you're all "hey get back on that fork so i can devour you!" and they're all "no way man!" so yea. ummmmm corn is evil. screws up your engine. great lesson kiddos, see ya next week.
