hmmmmm... well, i've invested in some companies (in shares of their stock) over the past 8 months (you may see the stock ticker stuff over on the left side of the main page of my blog)
anyway - they're doing okay, but, over the past couple of weeks, my one shining star stock, Darling International, has had a couple of, eh, interesting articles that mention them...
Now, Darling is not what one would say a "pretty" company... it's a little messy but they've been performing nicely since i bought them at 7.70
in any event, it's a little disconcerting when one sees a headline on their birthday reading
"Broken valve leads to 4,000 pound pig blood spill in K-Falls."
all i could picture was the image of Sissy Spacek standing there holding my money and screaming.
and THEN tonight i saw a video and then read an article with the lead paragraph as follows:
I am still sticking with my Darling, but, cripes, get some drivers who aren't afraid of bees, please!!!!
*sigh*
the future is still in Animal Fat though.
Whatchoosayin'?? (1 yapped)
Jeebus. That's a lot of pig blood.
Here and I thought the future was in plastics.
