A "year in review" of humor in the blog was started last year, so we thought we'd treat you to the same for this season. There are two categories. Line of the Year may appear in any type of post. Needless to say, it may actually encompass more than one sentence/line. Hey, it's out blog, we can use whatever rules we want! Post of the year was selected for the perceived entertainment value. Of course, entertainment value is subjective. And, since the farmer and his lovely bride were the only two judges, you can feel free to comment and correct our flawed insight!
If you wish to read any of the posts that have been highlighted here, feel free to take the links provided.
