Do you know? \u00a0Now, whistle the theme song from Jeopardy while thinking of the answer. \u00a0The correct answer would be Boston. \u00a0What? \u00a0One of our oldest cities is gaining ground? \u00a0Yep, they build pilings and piers and fill it with landfill. \u00a0Pack it and keep moving out to sea. \u00a0Slowly. \u00a0But about 16% of Boston&#8217;s land is built on landfill out into the ocean. \u00a0They just keep adding land mass like their pro sports teams keep adding trophies. \u00a0Well, at least the Red Sox have recently added a trophy.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of jinxes, I hate to mention it, for fear of jinxing it. \u00a0But, I was not holding my breath on our last AI program (goats not cattle). \u00a0I had a # of does that I hoped to get settled and it looks like we are in excess. \u00a0I&#8217;m a believer in setting goals but not all goals need to be lofty. \u00a0Any goal achieved is a step in the right direction. \u00a0Even if it costs a part of an acre of Dutch land.<\/p>\n<p>And since we are talking about breeding, \u00a0I normally log off here with something about have a good day or horseshoes and shamrocks. \u00a0How about we all just hope for Al Czervik&#8217;s last line? \u00a0Of course, that will probably be a lot like goat breeding&#8211;low goals, high expectations.<\/p>\n<p>Have a good one!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How about this president of yours and mine? \u00a0This dude might actually know what he is doing. \u00a0China is back to doing business with the US of A. \u00a0Long way to go, but no matter which side you are on, this guy is backing up his talk and tweets with [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kellnlivestock.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2629"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/kellnlivestock.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/kellnlivestock.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kellnlivestock.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kellnlivestock.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2629"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"http:\/\/kellnlivestock.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2629\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2632,"href":"http:\/\/kellnlivestock.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2629\/revisions\/2632"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/kellnlivestock.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2629"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kellnlivestock.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2629"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kellnlivestock.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2629"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
