Dear friends,
I am headed out of town for a few days, kicking off the Ag Library 2005 (This Time It's For the Eggs) Tour. I will be back on Saturday night, although if I can find some cheap and easy internet access on the road, I'll probably be right here, sharing thrilling tales of fifty years' worth of farm commodity reports.
Before I go, though, I simply must thank the person or persons who found me by googling "your pants will be dancing with figs." You have done me a great service, and you have put a permanent smile -- a genuinely pleased and happy smile, not a contemptuous smile -- on my face. Thank you.
Until Sunday, dear friends.
