Oh, if I could only send this to my favorite English teach in high school! She'd laugh and say, I wish my little preppie girls could write like this, or even knew a thing about pigs!

Bobby, I love reading your writing, and your dry humor makes it fly.

love, Liz

Thanks Liz! I love that our families are still connected, even if it's only around philosophical musing about pigs and other farm animals. Great to hear from you!

You are such a direct, crisp writer packed full of knowledge, my favorite type of nonfiction!

Thanks Mary. My knowledge base is kind of obscure and not very transferable - but I'm glad you enjoy it!

Beautifully written Bobbie! Here’s to the democratic ascendancy of pig peace in the barnyard over autocratic bickering in the hen house! Thank you!

Thanks Marta- and I agree, the world needs more peace and less bickering. More pig piles and fewer bullies...
