  Hello. I just returned from an extended weekend at my parents' place in my hometown. Friday was the 43rd "Corn Daze" celebration at which the local canning factory supplied the event with all the free buttered corn-on-the-cob you could eat.
I was a piggy; my total for the day was five ears: three for lunch and two for dinner. If you've never eaten corn-on-the-cob before, it can be very messy but definitely worth it... except when the local news station decides to include footage of your corn-eating piggy self on the 6:00 evening news, which is, unfortunately, exactly what happened to me.
And how is this news? My sister, her son, his friend, my mother and I were at a picnic table in the park chomping down on our ears when I saw the camera out of the corner of my eye. I thought to myself, " Only in a small town is something like this -- a corn feeding fest -- considered news . Thankfully, no one watches this station..." But, of course, we had to find out if we did, in fact, make it onto the news.
I'm sure those people with the big screen TVs had a good laugh at my expense. ;~{ My sister, Lisa, chomps down while I cover corn-filled teeth. The TV camera is out of view, but to the right of us. JW and Andrew show off their tattoos. Lisa adds her ankle.
