It’s the end of a long two weeks of on the road agriblogging. Thanks for hanging around for all the fun from the Cattle Industry Convention and the National Biodiesel Conference. Whether you like my coverage of these events or not I think you have to admire the fact that the Cattlemen’s Beef Board and the National Biodiesel Board have moved way ahead of the pack when it comes to openly and personally communicating with the public and the people who are paying the bills. They just plain “get it.” I’m not even sure if they’re aware of the Cluetrain or not but they’re on it.
MooBella Fresh Ice Cream Vending Machines
My favorite dessert is ice cream. I want to see these next to every soda machine in the country! MooBella machines. Freshly made ice cream when and where I want it. Even mixed with the toppings I want like cookies’n’cream and walnuts.
Snowfall Futures
I thought the Chicago Mercantile Exchange had some strange tools before but this takes the cake. Snowfall futures and options, starting with 2 cities, New York and Boston. How many people will buy these I wonder?
On The Road Again
It’s time to get back on the road again. I was going to have a little clip of Willie’s song here but it didn’t work out. I bought it on iTunes, then found out that I can’t even open the stupid file except with iTunes. I don’t like that.
Willie & Annie Nelson Support Farmers
It took most of the day to get a personal interview with Willie but I got ‘er done. Ask NBB Board member Greg Anderson how difficult it was. Let’s just say they weren’t letting the media do one-on-one’s but where there’s a will there’s an agriblogger.
Emily Richards For Biodiesel
This post is just to follow up my last one since it’s now the day after the Emily Richards Concert here at the National Biodiesel Conference.
Blogging With Emily Richards
It’s “meet the stars” week here in San Diego. I wasn’t real familiar with Emily Richards until today. But I’m a fan. Tonight we get to see a live show. Emily is a singer/songwriter that vocally supports biodiesel. If you want to see what she looks like on a motorcycle you’ll have to visit the Biodiesel Conference Blog.
EPA Administrator Promotes Biodiesel
I don’t think I’ve ever posted as much multi-media content as I have from this National Biodiesel Conference. I know it’s making my posting light here on AgWired but that will change after I’m back Friday. I thought you might enjoy some of it here though.
The Luke Perry Press Conference
I know posting has been a little light here today but you can visit the Biodiesel Conference Blog if you want to see what I’ve been up to. For example, my buddy Luke Perry here did a press conference just a little while ago to publicly support this renewable fuel effort. Daryl Hannah jumped into the press conference a little late but you can hear her too.
Daryl Hannah On Biodiesel
Here’s a ZimmCast that’s a little different. The first star to support biodiesel is Daryl Hannah.
