It is a bright sunny day in Missouri to be “black” Friday. I made the serious mistake of going out early to visit one of my favorite retailers. I had to park in the parking lot of the hotel next door. By 10 minutes after opening time there were people already on their way out the door and on to the next one I guess.
I looked around and decided that I’m going to stick to online purchasing. It’s how I do most of mine anymore. The prices are usually better and the lines are just not much of a problem.

Our cornucopia runneth over with gratitude for our friends this Thanksgiving. We have done business with about 40 different entities this year, including 10 companies, 10 ag-related organizations, 14 agencies and two farm media groups! Not too bad for a little ole new media company. I’m very thankful to everyone we’ve had the honor to work with this year so far.
I’ll bet that farmers will use SMS Mobile right after they get done checking their email, news feeds and the weather. How many of them have a mobile device already? Anyone know?
I got this story after the video feed had already been sent out this morning but I doubt I would have been able to receive it anyway. How about a link to it folks?
I was kind of out of it at the NAFB convention last week due to a very bad cold so thankfully I’ve been in receipt of some information I did not know.
Good old (not really) Stewart Doan got a big award at last week’s NAFB convention. He was named the Farm Broadcaster of the Year. Looking at his schedule of duties I hope he has an open account at Starbucks.
Here’s the latest announcements on the new Bunge leadership team.
