In a previous post I mentioned that I like to check in on Live Cattle periodically as I use that as a gauge for the economy.  Recently LC found some support at the $84 level and has now set a move to $88.  At this point I will pay closer attention to the beef as well as commodities in general.

"Real people" don't eat chicken.  At least, that is the conclusion the Beef Industry Council reached in deciding to change marketing strategies and end its "Real food for real people" advertising campaign.   

 

2. Q. How many cowhides does it take to supply the National Football League with enough leather to produce footballs for one season?

A. About three thousand.

Thurgy: I can see it now.  Vegetarian football fans will be petitioning the NFL.  Maybe they'll storm the field at half-time and stage a protest.
