Wilbur

Just got a call on a pig.



Half a pig, actually.

No, we're not keeping it here. But we are investing in 1/2 pig's worth of fresh meat.

At the local watering hole a few months ago, I ran into an old high school buddy of mine who has a farm and raises the occasional pig for slaughter. I expressed interest in 1/2 a pig.

I've kept his number around, waiting for May to make the call. He called me instead and we're now in the pig business.

I see you out there, just shaking your head, wondering what the hell goes on in my brain and whether I'll actually see this livestock experiment through.

Hey, as long as I don't have to take care of the pig every day and as long as I don't have to slaughter the thing, I think I'm good.

I'll keep you posted.

Addendum: Just remembered that David was going to start reading Charlotte's Web to Otto tonight. I think we're going to have to find a different book...
