January 30, 2007: Taking the setting of an animal farm from Orwell, Alamo Farm updates the classic, by paralleling the illegal immigration issue in the United States. Animals from the poor farm of T. Wanda sneak through a hole in the fence to Alamo Farm. The Alamo Farm animals at first feel sympathy for the visitors, but as more and more foreign animals arrive, the Alamo Farm way of life is severely threatened. The goal was write an entertaining story about a serious issue. That success is for you to decide. --Andrew Lynch
