We had a larger run today and decent buyer attendance even though there are quite a few people still chopping. Alfalfa sold steady to stronger today with generally pretty good quality. Grass quality was lower and prices reflect accordingly. Bedding sold strong. We have a lot of inquiries for large square alfalfa.

** A man staggered into a hospital with a concussion, multiple bruises, two black eyes, and a five-iron wrapped tightly around his throat. Naturally, the doctor asked him, “What happened to you?” “Well, the man said, “I was having a quiet round of golf with my wife, when at a difficult hole; we both sliced our balls into a cow pasture. We went to look around; I noticed one of the cows had something white in its rear end. I walked over, lifted its tail, and sure enough, there was a golf ball with my wife’s monogram on it- stuck in the middle of the cow’s butt. Still holding the cow’s tail up, I yelled to my wife, ‘Hey, this looks like yours!’ I don’t remember much after that!”

** A lawyer boarded an airplane in Miami with a box of frozen crabs and asked the stewardess to take care of them for him. She took the box and promised to put it in the crew’s fridge. He advised her that he was holding her personally responsible for them staying frozen, mentioning in a very haughty manner that he was a lawyer, and proceeded to rant at her about what would happen if she let them thaw out. Needless to say, she was annoyed by his behavior. Shortly before landing in Austin, she used the intercom to announce to the entire cabin, “Would the lawyer who gave me the crabs in Miami please raise your hand?” Not one hand went up… so she took them home and ate them.
