Cool

GOLD STAR to Underblog, for keeping us cool. For turning on the swamp cooler, changing out the crappy padding, and putting in a new motor. For doing all the dumb things that need to be done to keep Higglety Pigglety Farm up and running.

ProActive Activity

One GOLD STAR with reduced property tax edging for Underblog, who, in a fit of proactivity, paid a visit to the property taxers and demanded to know why our taxes have gone up unreasonably compared to other neighboring properties. As a result we will probably be paying lower taxes in the future. Thanks, Underblog!
