Speaking of funny stuff on YouTube, this isn’t bad. 6 minutes is kinda long, but most of it is still decent and the first couple minutes are sweet. Impressive variety.

You gotta love ‘em!

I shouldn’t have to explain why this website is awesome.

Not only does it serve as a great source of information on old-school John Deere machines, but it also provides a handy-dandy definition of a “Johnny Popper” or “Poppin Johnny”, depending on which school of thought holds sway in your farming universe.

Well, it’s not B&J, but still free is free: you all got this, but I’m including the email from Jimmy Wright anyway.

Dear Friends,

Susan Wright and I would like to invite you — students, faculty, and employees — to an ice cream social on the Green tomorrow (Wednesday) afternoon at 3 p.m. to celebrate the arrival (we hope!) of spring.

We are delighted that Barbary Coast will provide a festive touch with their music.

I hope that you can join us.

Jim Wright
