I have been gone without internet and cell service. What did I miss?

The crescent city, New Orleans is going to get some rain today. I am sure they will come through okay.

Not sure about the rest of the country and the fiscal hurricane we have coming. Thanks Gary Varvel.

Poultry business braces for Isaac. ($TYS) ($SAFM)

Housing still in a funk. I saw a TON of stuff for sale along choice parcels in northern Minnesota. Realtors up there tell me they can’t sell stuff for more than assessed valuation.

It’s #EXLDemoday. Follow it on Twitter at that hashtag.

Charlie Trotter retired in Chicago. End of an era. Here is what it was like to be in his kitchen.

Pretty sad comment on what’s going on in Europe. Keynesian economics and centralized planning/power don’t work.

Ann Romney gave a good speech last night at the Republican Convention, but Juan Williams didn’t. Here was another good one that didn’t air.

Did Warren Buffett bet against Obama?

Is Hayek Ryan’s guru?

Some good pennant races in the AL. White Sox still in first.

New hoof and mouth disease found in US. Affects children under 5.

Next trip is to Oxford, MS. Love the BBQ in Memphis.
