So they lay out a grid in a field and you buy some squares in the grid.

Whomever bought the square where the cow shits is the winner.

This was in Indiana, you will be unsurprised to hear.

Whatever happened to Gandhi, by the way? She’s been passed over for so many opportunities.

My favorite anecdote is that she gave a talk up at ASU and presented data from one of my papers but didn’t cite it lol.
