Dave, this one is for you...

I've been reading the blog of my Washingtonian friends, Dave and JJV, and have been struck by just how many references the lowly rutabaga has garnered in this blog of sophisticated political commentary. So, Dave, I thought you might be interested in this event, as reported by the Ithaca Journal. Apparently, playing with rutabagas has a long and glorious history in these here parts of upstate New York. As you so aptly noted in one of your comments, there is not a whole lot to do up here. You should know, oh man from Lyons. Perhaps Bryan has a future here.
