During our editorial board meeting on Sunday, I talked about NPR’s piece on “zombie papers”. Turns out, NY libertarian candidate for Governor, Larry Sharpe, was targeted by one in the 2018 election. He was pushed out of the race this year and lost his lawsuit to continue. The dirty politics come from both the left and the right. He is coming on today to discuss - Along with election results. (Five Times August had to reschedule.) What would you like to ask him?

This was so fun to watch. We had lots of rain overnight and the rodeo arena was soaked today. Most of the kids loved it, though a few weren’t a huge fan of being covered in mud. Thankfully there are many hoses at the rodeo grounds!
I used to be one of those people who thought goats will eat anything. But actually, it’s chickens who are the true garbage disposals. Now, when we cook something, I am regularly researching if chickens can eat the waste that we would normally throw away. In this case, we were peeling shrimp, and the light bulb went off. Maybe they would eat the shells? Turns out, not only will they eat the shells, but the shrimp shells are quite good for chickens! In fact, they are full of calcium to help the chickens lay eggs with hard shells.
