    Don't beat yourself up too bad for not buying apple in 1995 or whatever. It might as well have been a different company than it is today. I doubt anybody that bought then did so banking on the iPhone!

    I know several. They are humans like the rest of us, and have their flaws, but the ones I know are good people. Shriners do an awful lot of good for an awful lot of sick kids.

    Grass Fed to slaughter timing?

    Sorry, I misspoke. I meant steers. Most folks around here that sell freezer beef try to finish steers at 12-18mos by just pouring feed to them and they aren't as good (to me) as the ones I've seen that were finished slower and slaughtered at 24-30mos.

    Grass Fed to slaughter timing?

    I think that for the home-grower (as opposed to feedlots), it's at least 18-24mos even for grain finished cows, unless you like your beef sloppy fat. That's a different conversation, but everything I have read also points to 24-30 mos as the right age for grass finished. I can't wait to see...
