I Found the Pork

While congress has been hashing out a new stimulus deal and trimming the pork out, I had an interesting occurrence a couple days ago. While driving toward home I saw something go flying off to the side of the road from an oncoming pickup truck. At first I thought it was a deer but soon realized it was a rather large pig. The truck was pulling a livestock trailer and the driver didn't realize he lost his cargo and kept on going. I quickly did a U-turn and caught up with the driver and told him what had happened. When we got back to the place where the pig made his escape, I was surprised to see him up and running around. After many unsuccessful attempts to get the uncooperative animal back into the trailer, the farmer finally just told some onlookers that if they wanted the pig they could have it. He wasn't messing with it anymore. So, someone got 700 lbs worth of free pig.
