FFA Rituals Resume

Indy's annual agricultural human sacrifice is underway; already, one FFA member has been hit by a car and another's gone missing.

They're pretty good young folks but I'm startin' to wonder if anyone's keepin' an eye on them.

Here's hoping they can avoid a repeat of last year.

  1. I'm not surprised about the girl being hit by a car, the way people are driving these days. Seems like I take my life in my hands every time I go downtown. Although in all fairness, most pedestrians don't pay any attention to what they're doing, either; it's amazing more of them don't get run down.

    I hope they find the young man safe.

  2. Nathan,

    Thanks to the invention of the cell phone and the Walkman/iPod, Darwin has been returned to our lives.

  3. "Darwin has been returned to our lives."

    So, women will want to have sex with men who can multi-task and not be run over?

    I better get to practicing!

  4. Hmm. Cage drivers texting while iPoding vs. Walkers texting while iPoding. Two separate Species vying for Extinction or the same Species fighting to earn their Darwins? Think there's a Multimillion-Dollar Stimulus Grant to study this "Pressing" issue. But they'll just find a way to make an Airbag Vest, then it'll be required, then it'll be licensed and regulated under a New Agency......

  5. Did anyone else say "Hmmm" when they saw that the missing kid is from Afghanistan?

  6. Joanna, I said, "Wonder if he's skipped out? Bet he doesn't want to go back." But I'm like that; I have trouble trying to imagine preferring goats and poppies to hot dogs and fifty-'leven channels of sound and fury.
