What we learned from this is that corn can emerge from the ground 40 days or even longer after it is planted. We found that in some cases late emerging plants performed better than replanted corn, and vice versa.

The next time I have meat and mashed potatoes, I think I'll put a very large blob of potatoes on my plate with just a little piece of meat. And if someone asks me why I didn't get more meat, I'll just say, "Oh, you mean this?" and pull out a big piece of meat from inside the blob of potatoes, where I've hidden it. Good magic trick, huh?
