Corn

Editor, Times-Union:

A couple of years back, this gal from Milford wrote a letter to the editor. Jeefersocks, her shorts seemed to be in a bunch. She said the farmers plant that corn so close to the road, she couldn't see around it. I suppose she was scared then to pull out onto the highway.

Shucks, Sugarbabe, you moved right into the corn belt. They grown peanuts in Georgia. I can understand why they might not teach agriculture in Manhattan. Let's assume just for fun, that's where Sugarbabe's from.

She felt that since combines were so wide, they should made to require escort drivers, like those used to escort doublewide house trailers.

Combine escort driver. Tee hee. Sorry, but I can barely say that once without chuckling. You city gals come up with some real doozies, but that would hardly be a full-time position. Perhaps one might be unemployed 48 weeks a year.

Here's how it works for us country boys that's been here awhile. First, just stick that neck right on out there. Once you're straight, if you didn't feel anything, just crank up your radio and step on the gas - it's gonna be another great day.

Always remember to drive defensively. They'd almost certainly teach that in Manhattan.
