I was sad to hear about the school shooting in Tennesse earlier today. Too often do I hear news like this nowadays. Most of the time the shootings seem to be random shootings, but this time it seemed like a personal grudge between two specific students. Sadly the victim has died, but the perpetrator was arrested and has been charged with first degree murder. I just can’t understand school kids getting so wound up that they start shooting each other! What is wrong with this world? How can we ever expect to have world peace when we can’t even have peace in our own neighborhoods? Seems to me that the only “safe” school nowadays is to home-school your kids, which is really a shame.
Bigfoot discovery?
I was hearing on the news (and reading on the Internet) a story about how a couple of guys in Georgia have claimed to find a Bigfoot, and that they have the corpse in their freezer. Now I think that is just a hoax, Bigfoot has never been sighted that far south, and the so-called corpse looks like a cheap gorilla costume! I will be interested to see how this story pans out! I wonder if there will be any kind of prosecution if it IS determined to be a hoax? I hope so, these kinds of things need to be nipped in the bud!
Harvesting corn
Well, this weekend I will be busy harvesting corn most of the time. It’s a really good crop this year! I’ve been harvesting a little bit and taking it to the Farmer’s Market over the past couple of weeks, and the customers have bought every ear I’ve taken to the market! They love that super sweet corn that I grow! I can’t blame them, I love it too! This is a great corn that you don’t have to rush to the table as soon as you pick it – it gets sweeter after a day or two so you can buy it today and eat it tomorrow and it tastes even better. I think that is why it is so popular, it is hard for people to get regular corn to the table fast enough to really enjoy it.
