Pure Wow
It\’s been 914 days since the last post on simpleprop.com. It was my annual (at that point) Vikings preview for the 2014 season… let\’s not even talk about that. In these days of the rise of nationalism, Trump, Travel Bans, ISIS, Russia, and so on; what has finally gotten me off my ass to write…

Food Inc.: Revisited
Recently I watched Food Inc. for the second time. There was a quote that caught my ear from Joel Salatin of Polyface Farms. I\’m paraphrasing but essentially it was that when he is at the farmers market people come up to him and are outraged that a dozen eggs from his farm costs three dollars,…
