I have a Ryobi that I bought last October after the ice storm - not positive that it would have been my first choice, but at the moment it was my only choice. Turns out I’ve been very pleased with it. It’ll run three hours plus, and I’ve cut lots of stuff I probably shouldn’t have. Mine’s a...

Mostly around here if you say “stockyards”, it’s understood that you‘re talking about the Oklahoma National Stockyard in Oklahoma City. OKC West in El Reno is OKC West, or some just call it west. Most of the others are referred to as the (town name) sale barns...

My wife went to a smaller, local university. I got an associates degree from a community college, and then a bachelors degree from a 4 year school. My oldest son did the same, and my daughter also has an associates from a community college and is currently a junior at Oklahoma State. Younger...

I said college isn’t for everyone. Just wanted to point out that there’s far more to take away than the degree.

Lots of good advice here, but I will differ those who believe there’s nothing gained by going to college if you’re not getting a degree necessary for the career you end up with. i have a double major in ag education/animal science. I did teach ag for a few years after college, so you can say...

There were quite a few around here that lost some. Mostly babies born in the single digit and below zero temps when there was a good bit of snow on the ground, and a lot of those were from first calf heifers. A lot of folks were watching constantly, picking up calves soon as they dropped to...

Yes. It was the quick test (nasal swab).

I think there must be some genetic predisposition to how it affects people. I know pretty healthy families that have been devastated with hospilizations and deaths, and others that I’d have guessed would have a really hard time with it that had very mild cases. I’m 55, overweight, both my...

The processor we use will only do quarters if both quarters from the same half use the same cutting order. We just tell folks that want quarters that they don’t get a choice, they’re cut with our “standard” personal order - no one has ever had a problem with that. As Nesi said, seems like that...

Rest In Peace Charlie Daniels. Great entertainer and true patriot - you will be missed. https://youtu.be/CQ74BwEwOJY

Most of the processors around here were booked months ahead before all of this started. I’ve visited with the folks that run the plant we’ve used as long as I can remember. They just don’t believe that demand will continue at these current levels for very long - in fact they don’t really expect...

Quarters, halves and whole beef’s are selling like crazy here now. There are tons of people selling cuts and/or ground beef by the package - some inspected and some not. There are no new freezers available for sale in this part of the world. Local appliance stores say mid June at best and they...

I don’t drink much alcohol anymore, but when I do drink beer I prefer Miller Lite or Shiner Bock. I try to keep a bottle of Pendleton and/or Crown Royal around, but it’s not hard to do cause they last a long time here...

Braums milk is usually as cheap as anyplace in town - or used to be at least. That was one of Bill Braums policies, but since his heirs have taken over, a lot of the old policies are changing.

Oh, we certainly have no shortage of sale barns near us either. I work at one and routinely haul in and out of several others. Just meant that there are several located right off that highway, and like I said I’ve always thought those sale barns with the covered pens are kinda cool. I’m always...

The route I’ve found to see sale barns is I-44 through Missouri. I love to see those barns with lots of covered pens - ours is either muddy or dusty, there is no in between. One of these days maybe I’ll have time to stop and look around when we’re passing through on a sale day...

When I was growing up, everything was cooked well done. My mother believed meat wasn’t done if there was any juice left. Until I was in my mid teens I could never understand why everybody got excited about steak. Then I discovered medium :banana: Now I order mine medium rare some places...

A family we know lost an 8 year old in a UTV accident about 15-16 months ago. It was such a horrible tragedy. A helmet might well have saved her. I wouldn’t consider letting a child on an ATV, UTV, go cart, mini bike, etc... without one. Yeah they’re hot and a pain in the butt, but it’s just...
