This looks promising

Nothing wrong with a little extra cash: "NC Ag Department seeks seasonal peanut inspectors ahead of fall harvest".

I wonder if they'd give me a badge. And an official cap.

  2. I can see you in your very best Joe Friday suit grilling a miscreant peanut farmer, "just the nuts ma'am, just the nuts".
    BTW
    As it's already the 4th here let me be the first to wish you all a happy 250th birthday from someone who has a genuine affection for your great country.
    I sometimes wonder what the world would be like if the land of the free and the home of the brave did not exist and it presents a bleak picture indeed.

    1. Haw! If I did become a peanut inspector, they'd probably have a real problem with inventory shrinkage.

      Thank you for your good wishes. All righteous Americans look upon Australia as their "second home".

  4. I dunno, maybe because I'm awake and posting at this ungodly hour, but "peanut inspector" made all kinds of dirty humor run through my head.

  5. Way off topic, but the Mexican Batman might have inspired an Indonesian Imitator.
