Corn for your corns

What's up with Gov. Vilsack lately and his obsession with corn socks? I think I've heard about this from him like eleventy bajillion times, including a conference I attended at which he spoke on Friday.

Not that corn socks don't rule, of course. Coming this spring, you can buy them from a company called Fox River Mills in Osage. According to the Register, "the socks...look like any typical pair. They're white, not yellow. They don't smell like popcorn — no matter how hot your feet get while wearing them."

Good to know.

Corn socks? COOL!! Where can I get these? I mean it. Or should I just call the governor's office?

I think they said they'll be available starting this spring!

I'll probably be getting my corn socks on, too. Heck yeah.
