    How do I make people feel welcome?

    We are buying an existing business and I really want people to feel like we appreciate their business. I have had a couple of people tell me that they went there in the past and the people were not very friendly. (I have also heard it the other way that the ladies were nice.) How is the best...

    Gas Line

    One sprung a leak around here last night. It sounded like a military jet airplane. Best I could tell it sounded like it was about a half to a mile away. We left. How far away should you be from a leak to be safe?

    Send it back e-mails

    I get these from some people I know. They send me a forwarded e-mail that usually says mushy type stuff then says to send it back to let them know that I am thinking about them or you will have good luck if you send it out to 8 people, that sort of thing. It seems they always want you to send...

    Palpating

    Had someone out to palpate a couple of months ago. She did real good on the short bred cows that were around 30-45 days. She had some of the longer bred cows calving a month or so ago and they are not even showing signs. Had one cow at 8 months when she was actually only 5 months along. There...

    Plugs

    My car started missing recently so we took it in and they said it needed plugs and one coil replaced. Can you imagine, after only 127,000+ miles and it needed new plugs? I think I will call Lincoln and complain. ;-)

    Sneezing

    My son was sneezing this evening and I said "Scat you ole cat." Got me to wondering if that is just a southern thing? My parents told us that growing up. Anybody else?

    What is a good canned hot sauce?

    I normally go to the local Mexican restaurant to get hot sauce but sometimes buy from the grocery store when I can't get by the restaurant. I have tried many brands and can't find any that I like. Some that say they are hot aren't hot at all. I want to eat the sauce with chips. What brand do...

    Thieves

    My parents ordered one of those carport things that you see for $695. The people were supposed to come on a certain day to put it up but came the evening before. My dad was down in the bottoms with a guy who was doing dozer work and my mom left the workers to go down there and get him. My dad...

    Handicapped ?

    I was impressed by what I saw yesterday. We were driving through a neighborhood and saw a man with no legs in a wheel chair. This man had an edger, the kind that you switch out from a weedeater and he was edging his lawn in that wheelchair.

    Our roosters start crowing around 4 am. Started this morning at 4:25. It is nowhere near daylight. Do we have retarded roosters?

    Hamburger patties

    I have been using the premade patties that you get at the store. They don't have much flavor. I bought one of those tubes of hamburger meat because it was on sale and I wanted to make my own patties. I cut that thing open last night to make hamburgers and it was sooooo fatty that I started...

    pump up sprayers

    Any tips to keep these things working? We seem to really go through them without a lot of use. I have one now that is leaking somewhere out of the top where the cylinder thing goes up and down. I tried oiling that and the seal inside the tank but it is still leaking. I might add that I...

    foot rot experience

    Noticed I had a cow with foot rot. Someone told me to use 50/50 clorox and water. I sprayed that foot 3 times in 2 days. I was only supposed to spray once a day for 2 days come to find out. Well, this morning she looked worse than ever and didn't want to put much weight on it. So I looked...

    Watch out for the Tiger mama's

    I was in the barn this morning and the dogs followed me in as usual. The English Mastiff wasn't paying good enough attention when Freckles, our tiger stripe mama cow came in and the dog looked up and tried to get out of the way. It was too late, that cow was bellering and she rolled that dog...

    Napoleon Dynamite

    Have any of you seen this movie? As you can tell by my avatar I like it, in fact, it is my favorite movie. I'm not sure what that says about me other than I am a goofball. :D No matter how many times I watch it I laugh.

    Best thing to do ?

    I have a cow that came in yesterday. I thought she was bred since I haven't seen any activity and her calf is 5 months old. Would it be best to see if she got bred on this go round and if she did keep her for a while and sell her. If so, how far along should she be to bring decent money? If...

    What tha

    My husband and I were coming home the other day and noticed something on the side of the road by a tree. This was down a country road but there were houses that sat quite a ways off the road. I thought at first they must be geese since they were right by the road but when we got upon them it was...
