Years ago at age 7 I worked really hard to carefully string a long garland of popcorn for our X-mas tree while sitting in a kitchen chair. At last I proudly held up my hard earned handiwork only to find I had a mere two feet of strung corn and my very happy sweet dog Tiki, laying silently at my feet who had been gently nibbling all the rest of the corn as I pushed them down!

@@paulpetty3307 nah, just an actual worm outbreak (caterpillar) that is demolishing the popping corn crops. Not the regular corn that we grow for food, but the different variety cultivated specifically for popping corn. The variety is Zea mays everta and it's a special kind of flint corn that the worm is most attracted. Once the worm is eradicated and the outbreak is under control they will simply grow more crops and there won't be a shortage of that variety. These things happen in farming of all kinds, all the time.

I look so forward to the day, no matter how long or short it may be, to meeting you in heaven, be it the second coming or our work being done on earth and the Lord calling us home individually. We can check out any planet we see in whatever galexy and just by wanting to take a look at it, be there to hang out on it checking out the sights. No need for a spaceship, for we will be free. We'll get outside and be happy forever. God bless you sweet sister in Christ Jesus our Lord. You and yours are loved.
