And ANOTHER Thing…

by Tony on November 28, 2008

Here’s a strange thing.  President elect Obama’s leading pick for the position of Secretary of Agriculture is former Iowa governor Tom Vilsack.  This guy is a long time and close friend of Monsanto.  He was voted Governor of the Year by the nation’s biggest biotechnology group, the Biotechnology Industry Organization.  He has also been referred to as “The Satan of Seedsavers.”

Anyway, I did a lot of reading on this guy and I was getting all fired up and wondering what the heck Obama was thinking and then I started writing this post…

And then I lost my motivation.  It’s raining lightly here now.  I love the rainy season.  Most of the folks here at Michel-Schlumberger are taking the day for the ong weekend Holiday festivities.  The garlic in the garden has sprouted.

It’s hard for me to rant on a day like this.

So instead, I would like to simply wish everyone a very Happy Thanksgiving.  Drive safe and try to be nice to everyone.  Take the food seriously but not the relatives.  And have a glass of two of really nice wine.

Peace,

Tony
