crackin nuts

I started my new job today. So far, so good. Jay, my new bossman who owns the Insiders franchise that I am now working with, is the Board President of a charitable organization that has seen a lot of momentum over the last year. It's called the Full Belly Project. From their website...

"The Full Belly Project is a non-profit organization that designs and delivers simple agricultural machines to people in developing countries around the world.
This project teaches people how to build hand-operated machines with common materials. Our material of choice for (peanut) sheller parts is concrete because it is inexpensive, widely available, easy to work with and has a very long service life".

A local fella helped start the project. I plan on getting involved myself. Give the website a look to learn more about the Nut Sheller. It's a very interesting invention and developing story.
