@iamyourfarmer Understand completely.

@ScottVanAllen My first husband left me with 2 elem. children, and I had a fairly new car. I made $200 too much annually to qualify for reduced lunches. Wed. Church was a free meal.
Kids with single parents, people laid off, cancer strikes, abused wives, never know the stories.

We are catching some rain at wheat harvest which makes cutting wheat much slower and diminished quality. But I would take my situation over a dust storm!

[Tyson Narjes @narj_15]

This is beyond the point of absolute scary. It's a pure dust bowl. We cannot catch a rain if we depended on it because we're way past desperate.

@speerman42 If the need for engery increases as much as data shows, then what is the solution?(rhetorical question no response needed.)
I would like to see us solve the engery needs with something we can gain from and live with. acknowledging the increase needs is part of the solution.

[Leslie Bates @LeslieDBates]

Great job girls! The Cheney meet has seen many talented athletes, so this record is very impressive.

[Clearwater XC/T&F @chsindiantrack]

The girls team of Millie Allred, Sanaa Ake, Kynlee Martin, and Callie Noland break the 4x200 record in Cheney tonight with a time of 1:47.64. The previous record was held by Newlin, Harbison, Bradt, and York set in 1988

[Leslie Bates @LeslieDBates]

@chsindiantrack Holy moly! Congratulations on a tremendous jump!

@farmerbates @FrankWaughKAKE 🤣

Marriage has six stages,

But most couples give up at stage three.

The ones that pass stage three remain strong forever.

Stage 1: The Honeymoon Stage....

Students who took notes by hand scored ~28% higher on conceptual questions than laptop note-takers.

Writing forces your brain to process and compress ideas instead of copying them.

@BrianBledsoe @Tyne_Ag I have been listening to your podcast in the car, but have to switch to YouTube to know the regions. So I have kept up. Hopefully avoiding another drought. Wichita area.

@sherman_news @srothschild1 Wow! How dumb. Pity the small children in line.
