Synopsis

Some folks in the Texas panhandle don't like hog farms. But Bob Dollar, the newly-hired hog site scout for Global Pork Rind, intends to do his job. Determined not to turn out like his parents who left him on Uncle Tam's doorstep as a child, he's afflicted by the tendency to believe his own daydreams to the point of forgetting that he made them up in the first place.
