With the economy tanking, does anyone have any idea what this means for the sheep industry? I don't have enough right now to really worry, but down the road I...
I stayed home from work today due to the passing of my grandmother. I was really torn up and decided to do some work to take my mind off of it. I attacked the...

Morgan, I am guessing from your previous posts that you are in the far west, very much removed from grain sources, etc. When I did our books for tax purposes,...
G'day Morgan, This is a long shot; seeing that I'm in Australia. We have a tri-party marketing arrangement with the USA, NZ and us that is supposed to promote...
... Good Morning Collin, It's not a long shot. It's a global community now. ... Don't you think it's a bit scary that nobody consumer-wise in the USA has ever...
And BTW Collin, has there actually ever been an agreement between the US govt and Australian agriculture where the Aussies didn't end up getting screwed? (I...

After a huge family broohaha we named our ram Horatio. This was harder than naming my 5 kids, who are adults now. My eldest wanted a Russian author or Greek...

While some of my kids where here at Christmas I tried a boneless leg of lamb and just winged it. I stuffed it with spinach, kalamata olives and feta. I...
That is great. I almost just called him Hero, but thought that would be a bit hoaky. If Horatio doesn't stick that is my fall back. That is a good idea. Thanks...
One name my husband came up with, I can't put down, let's just say the first part of the name was bung. Which I didn't know means cork. We went through a ton...
