I want to say a heartfelt THANK YOU to everyone who has supported my podcast here on Locals and elsewhere. Thanks to you all, it appears we are indirectly headed to the Supreme Court. The federal government has just filed a motion to stay in Missouri v Biden, a landmark speech case - and a key plaintiff in the case is Dr. Aaron Kheriaty, who cites my 2021 censored interview with him as a Constitutional right's violation. It was the video that prompted my bosses at the Washington state Department of Natural Resources to demand I stop interviewing anyone who undermined their vaccine mandate - which led to my termination as I refused to comply. (Thanks to Matt Taibbi for linking to my videos in his article, cited below.) The next step, if I understand correctly, is SCOTUS. I had no idea at the time that a simple hour of my life could possibly turn into what it has. I interviewed Dr. Kheriaty just like anybody else who has been on, with my little 1-year old producer helping behind the scenes. Just goes to show, "Better is a little with righteousness than great revenues with injustice. The heart of man plans his way, but the Lord establishes his steps." (Proverbs 16:8-9)

The kids did their first rodeo today! Their event was “goat undressing on foot.” They have to catch a goat and grab a ribbon of its tail, throw the ribbon in a bucket and raise their hands to stop the clock. It seems grabbing the rope is the best strategy, then use that to shimmy toward the goat. The real winner was the crowd- who doesn’t love watching kids chase a goat in circles? Lily’s time was around 24 seconds, Jack’s was about 13 seconds.
I had to get a blood sample from our (hopefully pregnant) dairy cow, Maisy, to the post office, but wanted to hit the gym on the way. So, the blood came in a cooler (which I won in a feed store raffle) and hung out in my passenger seat. I think you hit the pro farmer world when you can say you’ve driven around with animal blood in your car while running errands. All in a day’s work!
WARNING: You will see a sheep rectum in this video.
I am dealing with my first rectal prolapse in our ewe, Maple. She is such a sweet girl but I’ll tell you, it’s been quite the learning experience and challenge for my gag reflex. The consensus among farmer friends has been to pack the prolapsed section with sugar and push it back in. This may seem easy enough but I’ve found it to be quite difficult for a newbie like myself. I’ve see this is more common in feedlot lambs but Maple is on grass with a tiny bit of hay and has no other issues, so the cause is a mystery. Vets can suture the rectal opening so that there is just room for Maple to poop, but this can be a costly procedure. There are also “rectal rings” available which essentially do the same thing as the sutures. Has anyone else dealt with this?
@AlisonMorrow Alison, are you doing interviews or news analysis anymore or have you shifted to farm life and similar types of videos mostly?
Hi! Curious to know if people in other areas than mine, Chicago suburbs, have a lot of people wearing masks. I know a lot of people that wear masks, not because they are afraid of getting Covid or other sickness, but because they are sick and think they need to wear them to keep other people from getting sick.
