What Is Happiness?

Happiness is the look on the local farmers faces after 2 1/2 inches of rain fell in the last few days. Everything was getting so dry around here that they were all worried about the corn ears filling out. The stalks are tall and syrong but without full kernals on those ears the crop won't ammount to much. If we could get another 2 to 3 inches in the next few days or week it would help even more. I guess it all depends on who wants to pay the most for it. The alcohol plants or the feed mills will be happy but the little guy that pays double for eggs andmilk and meat will sing a different tune. Sombody has to pay the difference and it will be us in the end.
