Funny story on me.

Was driving I-70 west thru Kansas and seeing what appeared to be
"stunted corn" growing in the corners of the fields that the
irrigation didn't reach.

Stopped for gas and asked about the "stunted corn".

Attendant responded, you talking about the milo?

They grow that for cattlefeed.

DUH!

I'm sure they had a good laugh at my expense after we left the gas
station.
