Second, I was called on to be the official scorer today at an FFA sectional Soil Judging contest. You may recall that I helped out on our local contest a few weeks ago. That is not unusual. UDSA-NRCS soil scientists usually cover the sectional contests. It makes me feel like an enabler to help out and do work that government employees would normally do, but I could not see depriving our students from the learning experience just because the congress is behaving like children.

To bad that the USDA employee did not volunteer his time to help out. :(
I am glad you helped out, Dave. Soil judging was one of my favorite activities, we all learned so much about what is under our feet!
Me, I agree with the Tea Partiers. We can't afford this stuff.
It would be illegal for the government employees to volunteer their services. It is not worth getting fired over.
Being able to acquire a bill protection insurance is also important in preparation for a government shut down.
