There is a modern advantage to reading that continues to pour forth as we consume more "information"-based media. Gone are the days when one would have to make a trip to the library to look up why the venerable George R.R.Martin spells his moniker of respect "Ser." Now, one can merely flip over to a search engine and with more magic than Merlin could summon, obtain a battery of answers and rabbit holes to dive into for more.

Well, I wimped out. I always joke about hunting until the whistle blows no matter what, but this time was different. I hunted Friday morning and everything felt so right. A little wind, but not enough to make much of a difference. The sun was shining and deer were moving. It was also one of the few times all year that I saw plenty of ducks flying. But after lunch the wind began to pick up. The temperature started to drop and by 4:00 I could see my breath. I knew Saturday, the last day of the season, was supposed to be cold, but that never stopped me before.

A plant is no better than what it grows in. Got good dirt…er, potting soil?
Had a dream the other night, vivid enough to wake me to text myself a morning reminder; however, the next morning I this message on my phone: pit t soi imdian mods. Took a while to figure out that it was a reminder that, decades ago while working in the MSU horticulture greenhouses, we used soil partly excavated from ancient Indian mounds.

Lt. Governor Hosemann outraised the potential gubernatorial field last year, pulling in nearly $1.7 million with AG Fitch not far behind. However, Auditor White leads the pack in cash on hand with over $3.8 million.
This time next year, all eyes will be on who is running for what state office in Mississippi.
Campaign finance reports filed last week, and the related messaging from current officeholders, give voters a glimpse into who will be jockeying for higher office.

A vote against a Democrat-backed amendment on a resolution that was ruled procedurally defective in the Senate Rules Committee has drawn scrutiny from the Mississippi Senator’s challengers.
Opponents of Mississippi U.S. Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith (R) are attempting to use a committee vote on a proposed amendment that was ruled to be not germane to the measure at hand as fodder on the campaign trail.

Some Holmes County residents have lived for days without power and water. Some have slept in cars for warmth. Some have missed hot meals.
It was the fourth day after the ice storm that Loleeta Cobbins had purchased a $2 package of hot dogs to feed to her kids. It was the fourth morning she woke up in her car beside her mother after tucking her five children into blankets in a closet — the warmest part of their cold apartment. It was when she started to dilute her newborn’s baby formula.
