“SWINE CAN STAY AT THE MINNESOTA STATE FAIR, health officials say” – StarTribune update Aug. 20, 2012
The Fair opens Thursday. Those who don’t know about the swine flu controversy might think that the Minnesota Department of Health’s decision means that fat political parties and candidates that thrive on slop will once again be welcome at the Fair. Every Fair-goer will be at risk, but, then again, that’s how democracy works. Who’s to say who the swine are?

The photo in the article shows 1227 Stevens Street as the address of the Swine Barn with a sign next to the address:
Stay Healthy!
Please wash hands
after visiting the animals.
My home in Chaska is another address threatened by the Swine Flu. I get emails every day in this campaign season. I wash my hands a lot these days but the swine are hard to budge.

I prefer the good old fashioned ‘dirt’ pigs on my son’s place. They want nothing more than food, water, shelter from the sun, maybe some mud and a scratch behind the ears…..

Karin, Couldn’t agree more. Love the image. They don’t hog all the food, water or shelter.

Swine are a lot brighter than a lot of politicians who are running for office. And cleaner too.
