Latest puppet


I will be sending this puppet to the Oprah Winfrey show on Monday. I had heard her commenting on her cocker spaniel having a hard time with bouts of kidney troubles.

Its a dual edged Idea, this one. While Im an animal lover and really enjoy my sculpting, I cannot think of another venue that would "possibly" offer me the chance to have my work seen.


I cannot imagine Ms. Winfrey having any difficulty with an entrepreneur taking a risk.

so here is one of mine. Now I can only hope it makes it past the mail room.

more on nais and traditional farming

recently discovered a blog that goes into how the AG bureaucrats plan to force nais upon us like it or not, http://www.thecompletepatient.com/journal/2007/1/23/the-secret-plan-to-make-nais-mandatory.html
there were also several other outstanding articles on raw milk and more.
and someone has asked, do farmers blog?
I think the answer is yes, if they have the time. Nowadays they may be getting more time since urban expansion and sprawl are cutting deeply into the ag community. old farms that used to be corn are now new developments. Im thinking the only solution to this issue will end up being families who get 50-100 acres, and homestead, or create an environment where they can eat what they grow etc. but with the NAIS they wont be shipping animals or dairy off their land...
