Growers aren't stupid. They're doing what's best, considering the regulatory and market environment they're working with. If they could sell it, even at a steep discount, they would. If they could donate it to a local food bank, they would do that (I know many that do)
If they're not able to do those things, it's usually/always because the law won't let them. Sometimes it's outright illegal, and sometimes it's not worth the liability. And sometimes it's regulations causing the liability problems.
But blaming the growers for that sort of shit is like blaming 'corporate greed' for inflation. You poor hoodwinked liberal.
#2) Steam trainspotters being c-blocked by a boring, modern diesel. It's the little things in life that make us happy. I just hope it was the Hogwarts Express to make it a full potter-block.
Union Pacific ‘Big Boy’ No. 4014, just came through Houston. Saw on the news that people were lined up all along the tracks throughout the route to downtown Houston. I wanted to go see it but had a meeting I had to attend.
#1: Looks like they tried to change the possum before it was due. #6: I have a thermal scope that has a mode called 'Fusion' that produces heat signatures like that. I prefer 'white hot' for hunting/pest control. #10: Happy cows!! Ed
#7 The first few times i watched it I couldn't tell what he was doing. Then I was sure he was flipping it over to show the other side, and pretending he made a cool picture. Then I finally saw he wasn't flipping it over, he was flipping it upside down! Cool pic, dude!
Possums up close are some of the scariest critters on earth though if threatened will play dead quite convincingly. Ask my dog. #4 would be my dog cleaning the rabbit before eating it. She's hell on any kind of wildlife that comes around. It is HER farm and she protects it.
Possums get a pass from me, poor critters only live 2-3 years. Their worst crime is eating dog/cat food left outside after dark. They don't get rabies, either, their core body temp is too low to support the rabies virus.

DeleteNumber 5. Very interesting mechanized bull float. Never saw the like before. I imagine it makes a back-breaking job a hell of a lot easier.
ReplyDeletePower screed, ran one many times. Length can be changed out to 16 ft. Maybe longer.

Strawberry growers would rather feed livestock or dump excess berries than lower prices for people.

ReplyDeleteIt's always worth the money to hire pros when you need concrete poured. I've seen some tragedies.
