The Crown deal is okay, reminds me that about 25 yrs ago an exporter friend in NYC had a good customer in Grand Forks & wondered if I would go out to North Dakota speak to some groups, as my good friend had to go somewhere by the Adriatic Sea. I landed in Bismark & the schedule was a tv show in Bismark, a group of folks in Williston, down to Dickinson and a small radio station a ways south of Dickinson. When we arrived in Williston I noticed there weren't many vehicles & suggested to my host that probably no one would show up...he replied "folks fly planes up here." That was true...the place was packed. When I finished the radio program in the small town south of Dickinson the radio personality took us next door to treat us to an adult beverage. There were 3 of us & the waitress brought Crown & I told my host "I'm happy with bar whiskey," to which the waitress said "Crown is our bar whiskey." I think she left change out of a $20 for six drinks...North Dakota still holds a warm spot in my heart.

We look at this report in the morning, you might have to be happy with $5 per bushel...all depends on the projected demand, or we might see considerable potential yet...even though it sounds like a lot of acres are going to wheat. One situation does catch my eye..July 09 wheat is 50 cents discount to July 08..if we get a huge crop..that relationship will change (or should) to provide carrying charges.

No criticism intended but you might consider seeing a professional about your hair.
