Op-Ed Handlers compromise growersby Linda Rinta 3/5/01 Wisconsin Rapids, WI - When I left for Wisconsin I joked that this was Ground Hog Day. Did you see the Bull Murray film where his character was forced to relive the same day over and over again in agonizing detail? That's me, and this is Ground Hog Day. Yesterday's version of Ground Hog Day was simply unbelievable. I'll give you some bullets to chew on. I have found that chewing on bullets is a pretty good appetite suppressor. One bullet:
The love fest between Decas and Ocean Spray went well into the night. If we weren't talking about restoring cost of production to growers, it might have been fun to join in. I want to come home. The "storm of the century" which is predicted to close airports in New England for the next two days, threatens to keep us here for another Ground Hog Day, unless I can change my reservations. I'm not sure how I can endure another minute of this. With a storm coming to Wisconsin later this week, I'm going to get as far east as I can, because I'd rather sleep in Detroit Airport on the floor than endure one more Ground Hog Day.
