With the holiday weekend fast approaching, try to remember this piece of sage advice as you ignite illegal explosives whilst under the influence of mind-altering substances: keep those little fingers at a safe distance from the inevitable conflagration. Because, while independence is a wonderful thing, dissociated digitry is a real party killer.

After a few weeks under the darkness of a cloud, sunlight has once again shone its beautiful face here on the farm. It's a good thing too, because we have a nice little tomato patch that was in desperate need of some beamage in order to shed its inedible green exterior for that of a pluckable vermilion hue. Needless to say, the bulk of this week's episode was created while following a billowy bouncing ball of mozzarella cheese as it danced and danced its way across the basil-rich landscape constructed by the selections herein.

Hope isn't an emotion easily clung to here on the farm. With everything we face on a daily basis, it's pointless to believe anything good would ever happen. But, as we crawl ever more closely to the fringes of time, it might not be a terrible thing to consider while on the brink of our very existence.

In a world overstimulated by the 24-hour news cycle, perpetual fear mongering from the government and media, and the overt sexuality that is forced down our throats by ubiquitous advertising campaigns, it's not hard to imagine a culture wrought with negative anxiety and an inaccurately perceived reality. The second in a three-part series, this week's episode is an attempt to embrace the irrational thought patterns that sustain our day-to-day choices and actions... both of which, may not even be our own.

The perpetual sunshine in Los Angeles is enough to drive even the sanest human being into the cavernous, dark alleys of the mind. For the next three episodes, we'd like to cordially invite you on a journey into the deepest recesses of your vitamin D enriched brainpan. And, with any luck, the end result will leave you with a pleasantly altered headspace.

*Note: Use of headphones and/or psychotropic substances required (at the very least, recommended).

We're not big on nostalgia here at the farm, but after nearly three years of alphabetizing episodes, we thought we'd take a look at the best and worst of our monumental series. So, enjoy the extended mix this week. And, rest assured... everything is in its proper place. Hopefully.
