I do not mean to be insensitive, and I especially hear you all on the govt mis-management of water supplies....

But, bring on the drought! Yea! I have been drowned out so many times in the past 20 years, it is so disheartening for me to hear rain in the forcast. I'm sick of rain. With a drought, prices go up, I can actually make some money. 1988 was the driest my dad remembered, and he was alive in the 30's. And that was, still to date, my most profitable year. In '03 we had it very dry here, and I had record corn yields - by a big margin.

Again, I know a drought can be devistating to other regions, and even 40 miles from me they farm sand dunes & get burned out about as often as I get flooded out. I tease my wife that I'm the only farmer who frowns when it rains & dances when there is a drought.

Just have to stick up for my own interests once in a while. :) Tired of cleaning mud out of machinery, welding up all the broken stuff, driving cross-ways through my rows, getting the chain & tractor yet again.....
