    Monty here - you know and love me because of my Wheel of Fortune. However, what many of you don't realize is that I am a dog pooper scooper also so please if you follow Sue-ana's advice and gift your love ones with poop - leave the little bundles of joy alone for me to clean up. There is no other way for me to gather the 400 dung I gift all of you with when you spin my wheel. Have a wonderful day and may Lady Fortune smile on you.

    MAN GOES MISSING FROM THE FLOWER SHOP

    Burt had been having a vacation from the gourmet farm whilst the renovation work is carried out. His friend Rob noticed whilst taking a nap in the gacuzzi, that upon awaking, Burt had gone missing, leaving just his pants on the lounger. Police say it is possible he simply faded away due to the replacement of pasta with wheat in the gift sets.

    FIRE UPDATE

    Farmer K here updating you all on the fire that swept the Gourmet Farm one week ago.

    As you remember, most buildings were a total loss and the fields destroyed. Luckily, the goats were not harmed. Insurance was quick to cover the loss so rebuilding could begin.

    The workers most effected by these losses were the café employees. When asked about his work and his staff, Chef O'mlet stated, "My kitchen was destroyed! The supplies for a new state of the art kitchen are unavailable. I must relearn my craft and create new items that require only an oven. I am a classically trained French-chef and now I must bake. It is a challenge, but I am up for it. Many of my kitchen staff are now working the fields to ensure that we grow the highest quality fruits and nuts for our bakery products. We are also exploring new ways to make our farm profitable again after this devastating fire."

    Many workers remain unemployed after this disaster. For now they are enjoying the open spaces and abundance of decorations. It was also noted that ducks and donkeys have taken up residence after the fire. Some workers have found employment tending to these, others are just enjoying their presence.

    As noted in an earlier article, the property values on the Gourmet Farm have increased significantly since the fire. It may be that the easier life-style and increased beauty has contributed to this increase in property values.

    The Truth is in there.

    I first became suspicious about the mill when I noticed the water wheel wasn't turning. After all, there would need to be a flowing current to power a mill and it is sitting in a still pond. When I went to take a closer look I was quickly turned away by a threatening security guard. Then reports of disgruntled cows and workers started coming in. With the suspicion of starvation and talk of torches and pitchforks, I knew it was time I got inside. So last night I hid myself in one of the inbound cartloads of lamb's lettuce to bring you the real story.

    As it turns out, it is not a mill at all. It is a state of the art gourmet kitchen powered by a cold fusion reactor recovered from the alien crash site. And the cows and workers are justified in their outrage. You can't believe the meals that are being prepared for the gourmet animals! Goats are dining on Dandelion Greens in a Balsamic Reduction. Donkeys are served Barley Pilaf with Mixed Wild Mushrooms. And ducks feast on Lamb's Lettuce under Mustard-Shallot Sauce. No wonder it takes so long to get them all fed!



    Thanks to Cow, Titch and ndf for inspiration :-)

    CROP CIRCLES HAVE APPEARED IN THE CORN

    Farmer K here bringing you the latest news from the corn field. Crop circles have appeared overnight. The chickens are restless and extra noisy this fine, beautiful morning. The workers appear to enjoy gazing upon the crop circles. However, there is extra work to be done here on the farm. The corn needs to be brought in early and new corn planted. This work will continue all day or until the crop circles have been eliminated.

    Stay tuned for updates from our reporting team.

    Criminal Activity on Flower Farm.

    Well some culprits just have too much time on their hands. Aparently someone replaced the Essence of jasmine with some dung in the scented perfume recipie. At the time of reporting this story we are not sure who did this but farm security is on the look out for anyone with a hint of jasmine about them.
    I guess in Essence this is a crappy crime

    Betty McGuillicuddy is worried. Mrs. McGuillicudy is the owner and manager of a flower shop in our community named "Betty's Beauties". She has devoted much time, effort and money to build her shop into the thriving business it is today. But it seems that her livelihood is now threatened by a group of unscrupulous developers. "I just don't know what I'll do if I go under like my nice neighbors, the Becker family", she says,"They had a beautiful and very profitable restaraunt that they built up from nothing". "Then along comes these city slicker developers with all their tom fool ideas about how to do things". "The first thing those doggone developers did was to level their beautiful restaraunt!" "Now what was once a thriving business has become a cash sinkhole!" "Those poor Becker's!". "Now there's talk that they might do the same to me!". "I'm tellin" you, if it comes to that, I'll pack up the whole kit and kaboodle and move to another site!". Sadly, Betty is not alone in her plight. Many in our Big Farm Community face the same hardships. But no matter what the future holds,we will always have each other to rely on. We're rooting for you, Betty! Good day and Good Farming!

    Aliens?

    Carissa here reporting from the farm. Farm hands are finding tiny parts that look like they could be from out of this world. They say they are finding them in the fields and orchards. Farmers have had a hard time believing it and were led to believe that the pranking twin was at it again causing havoc across many farms. People are getting very upset and he has gotten lots of threats. He has assured some people that it's true and has even come out with photos. It's hard to make any of them out cause they are all taken in the dark, but there are some weird stuff seen in those photos. We were asked not to mention what was seen. Some weird footprints have been found on a few farms since then. So we all ask. Is it big foot coming out of hiding again, or is it really some odd looking creatures from out of this world just investigating our world? It has everyone scared to death for sure. Even the animals are left uneasy and are jumpy, more so the cows.

    We have spotted bunny hiding some colorful mysterious things shaped almost like a sphere! This bunny has been seen several times and people have seen the bunny even wear a colorful bow. This bunny looks small and white.
    If seen go to the website whitebunnyspotted.com
    Has this bunny made friends? Or did it give birth? Seems like recently there has been a few more movement in the bushes.
    Appears this bunny is EXACTLY 1 ft tall. And if ANY more special detailing please, please, please send in evidence to whitebunnyspotted.com
    Not only is this little one friendly but has caused a little trouble, AND has stolen much cabbage from multiple fields! Might need take action? :0


    Hope you don't mind my NEWS but you didn't include it.

    Reporting from our neck of the Farm.

    Well, last night on the farm, we were doing some cheering and dancing to help the corn fields along, knowing they will help with finding the UFO parts that were scattered about. Also with The Chickens or The Eggs.
    Seems like the kindergartners have been busy trying to color eggs for the rabbit for Easter. But we at the farm can't help but think they are more interested in playing with the bunny than helping him, seeings how it's taking too long to find the colored eggs. People are getting a little anxious.

    Yes, dancing helps to get more UFO parts.
    Seems like karmit did uncover the truth-eggs!? Might this be the easter bunny?

    Updated news-
    Seems like JUST yesterday someone reported several colored eggs in chicken coops. So they have handed them over to be inspected. They found out that these eggs aren't colored by kindergartners but are naturally colored! Might these be the white bunny's eggs? Later, we found out that the kindergartners were actually finding the eggs, not coloring them!

    So what we think so far is that there is a white bunny dropping it's OWN eggs in several farmer's lands. Not kindergartners coloring them! So if any further information please send in news and evidence to whitebunnyspotted.com. Thanks and now we hear from

    Possibility Aliens are a Hoax!!!

    There could be some truth to the fact that this whole alien thing is just a big Hoax. I have been investigating and there are No spaceships!! If an alien did land on the farm there would be more than fake cartoon UFO parts. I mean not all Aliens can be bad drivers and crash into the fields at least one ship should remain
    Also I think Trumpety has been out in the fields making Crop Circles.
    As for the Galactic Garden some people are selling. Very colorful but it does not make me as happy as laying on the beach.
    Don't be fooled people your farm was probably invaded by Trumpety who shot circus parts all over the farm and than sat in your fields.

    This is Sue-ana reporting to you from somewhere on the farm

    There have been many reports lately of "aliens" who have been "visiting" our farms. "Not so!", says Professor Chester P. Crackpot, PHD. "If you just look at the facts, these are not actually visitations at all". "That's because Big Farm is not on the planet Earth!". "The conditions found here are found nowhere on our world, and I'm sure that you would agree", he says with a chuckle. " For example, the sun shines 24 hours a day,7 days a week ,365 days a year. Zero rainfall. There is always enough breeze to turn the Windmills. Nowhere on Earth do such conditions exist." "And when you add to that the highly accelerated plant growth and gigantic bees the size of a house, we are clearly not in Kansas anymore, Toto!". "So one can only come to one conclusion. WE are the aliens! The so called "visitors" are really NATIVES here!" You might not agree with the Professors theory, but he does make a pretty good case!

    Breaking News:

    Authorities are investigating the reports of embezzlement happening in the new bakery. They have a list of possible suspects and are trying to piece together who is actually responsible. They have warned management that this may take a couple of days. Big Farm Police Captain Bob's advice is to keep a close eye on the profit that is coming out of the bakery and if math is not your talent, just stop producing until they have the suspect in custody. If there is no income coming in, then they can't steal it. Keep tuned in for updates on this story as they become available.
