@agronomistryan1 He has to be glad he’s not outside anymore

@ESPN_Schick @NickStich2nd I felt like the Ruhle era ended a couple of weeks ago at 1:30 am on a Sunday when our former QB beat us in a game we should have won. There is going to come a time where the people with $ are going to be gone or no longer care about NE Football

@sanegrain “Making the turn” always felt like a victory!

[Matt Krenk @KrenkMatt]

@sanegrain So true, no matter how fancy, precise, accurate, we tried to get with the plans, mother nature could sure be good at absolutely trashing them. Just months into my career, I had a YSB shuttle on track that I couldn’t load. Will always remember.

@sanegrain Harvest soybean logistics make for trying times…

[Matt Krenk @KrenkMatt]

@sanegrain Well we certainly have that going here right now with our weather. I haven’t felt this helpless since I took over an elevator that was short grain, full of damage, with 1.5 mil bu on ground going out of condition, couldn’t load w/o a truck line…

@BenRand10 Remember having to put up and properly aim the FM antennas to receive the signal pre satellite, if I recall correctly the signal for here came from WOW-FM 94.1 Omaha.

[Matt Krenk @KrenkMatt]

@BenRand10 Miss those days having one of those on my desk at work, always knew the market was moving when the thing sounded like a rock tumbler

[Matt Krenk @KrenkMatt]

@StutzShane @agronomistryan1 perhaps we need to discuss these details further, specifically what can we do given the date and our specific situation.

[Matt Krenk @KrenkMatt]

@sanegrain Did he ever talk about the grain business? It is in many respects a necessary evil, some have figured out how to make money for themselves, while others have helped their farmers make good money while also making good money, that was the way that stoked my fire.

[Matt Krenk @KrenkMatt]

If every Tractor supply around here closed and was replaced with a Bomgaars, my life would be so much simpler and my blood pressure would be so much lower.

@BrianBledsoe ** technically did not state how long after….

[Matt Krenk @KrenkMatt]

@agronomistryan1 @ckleene Agree, but we will have to keep the fake AI shit from finding a way to kill us all which at some point it will be capable of, IMO. It will be playing chess while we are playing checkers.

@agronomistryan1 @DTNeeley Yes it gets splashed with gas at the E plant to make sure it only gets used as a motor fuel. The ethanol prior to denaturing would have lots of other uses besides motor fuel.

@MattAnd69198679 @grippinthagrain @Verizon @Starlink Having the same issues in Seward Co, missing text messages, dropped or poor connection calls. I don’t know what is going on but it’s not good.

[Matt Krenk @KrenkMatt]

@sanegrain Or work in grain and quickly learn how to dismiss your critics, sometimes the most inspiring words are “you will never…”. At least they were to me, I heard that plenty.

[Casey Kimbrell @CBKimbrell]

I’ve had two different local young couples tell me they’re quitting farming this fall. I can’t talk them out of it. Too many overwhelming factors to overcome even if it may be better next year. Makes me sick, and I’m sure there are more because I don’t know many people up here.
