The crash that made\u00a0
the news this morning,
has been mostly cleared\u00a0
from the highway.
All that remains\u00a0
is some guy sweeping up glass.
And there\u2019s a service today
for the school kid
who died running track.
At 11.00 a.m.,
his classmates will honor him
with a moment of silence.
But the football team won.
For the seniors, it\u2019s their last game.
For the cheerleaders, their appreciation
for young sweaty men in tight uniforms,
thumping each other on a grassy field,
will never be more palpable.
It\u2019s been a good year for the wheat.
Even the prices are fair.
And hog futures still means\u00a0
one thing to the farmer\u00a0
and something else entirely to the hog.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
