Melissa, you have been asked who will be covering the east with no reply. Maybe you could let ALL of us know who is covering west, central, north, south and east. It would be nice to know who to contact for coverage where ever we live.

I'm the one to be saying thank you! To all of you who have found great humor in our industry and shared it here on Dairy Agenda Today. While I would love to spend my days traveling from show to sale from east to west, it's not possible to capture all the great moments myself. So thanks for being willing to share your pictures and great ideas! And for giving us all a smile.

Flash sounds like we all better go to Wal-Mart and purchase pocket cameras to have in the showring so WE can send photos to Melissa for posting. Thanks for the comedy it was getting boring! Congrats to Creedy and Bendig's.

I was disappointed to not see the pixs and info on Bendig and "Billy the Kid" on DAT..... word on the street is that they were headed for an appearence on "Sat. Nite Live". Maybe Flash can get a few quick shots before they head to Letterman!!!!!

If Flash is doing the reporting from the East does he get a video camera so we can see such events live ?? Cost of Camera $ 82.00 Flash Travel Expense .75 a mile. 1 dairy agenda windbreaker $ 12.00 Seeing Bendig showing "Billy The Kid" PRICELESS !!!

Thanks, Melissa. We all like to see new things happening. It's a natural progression..... first, Snickerdoodle, then Tootie and now "Dale the Goat Dude" !!! Flash is to be commended for getting the first coverage, but has dropped the ball in getting us the visuals. Hopefully they're on the way.

Were not talking any foolish gossip either . Dales goat is the odds on favorite for the Champion Banner at todays show,some have even gone as far as to say it could be supreme !!!I dont know .Perhaps him or Creedy could fill us in after the exhibition.
