Notice I didn't say cure. You take green persimmon squeezings and rub the top of your head with it. It won't cure baldness but it will draw your sideburns up so you can use them.

Hello everybody. I've been gone for a while. Just wanted to say hello. I hope everyone is still doing well.

I read most of the post about O'Rilley. I gotta agree with you about the kidnapped kid. Something stinks. He probably started out abducted. But he didn't finish out that way. If I had been that kid I would have laid in the cut for him. The first time he went to sleep he would have woke up with a...

I heard on the radio this morning that the Omish people who lost children in the school shooting this week are collecting money for the widow and children of the man who killed their children. That my friends is forgiveness. It would be hard for me to be that gracious. :heart:

I wormed a 400 lb calf that seemed to be a little bit behind the others the same age. The next day he was slobbering and squirting like a goose. He eats like a pig but is a little slow moving around. Temp is normal. Has anyone else ever seen this? All the other calves are fine and show no...

Does anybody feed it? What are the advantages or disadvantages?

I have a 4 day old bull calf that I am feeding on the bottle. (bucket) I went to feed him Saturday evening an found him having seizures about every 45 seconds. He would stand up and in a few seconds he would fall backwards a seize up. I took his temp and it was high. I put a fan on him and...

I heard this morning that corrosion was found in the Alaskan pipeline and that production will be decreasing from that supply. I've also heard that we ( the USA) doesn't use the oil from the pipeline because the oil is so dirty that our refineries can't clean it up enough for us to use it. Japan...

Just wondered how hot it is at your place. I saw a tree chasing a dog this evening. It's 100 in the shade here.

My son Joe and I were at the barn Wednesday feeding. I decide to show the young one how rough and tough his old man was. For some strange reason unknown to me, I say, in true dumba** fashion, "watch me ride this steer boy." I jump on board to make the fastest dump form a steer in history. I may...

I was at the barn yesterday when a fellow stops and asked if I'd sell him some of the longhorn calves he'd been looking at in the pasture. I asked him if he was sure he'd seen them here. "He said yeah, these standing right here." I informed him he was standing in the the midst of a bunch of...

Just wondering, how many of you have kids in the FFA. My daughter just retired her officers jacket Saturday night.

Went to the barn to feed Sunday morning and found two dogs tearing away at a week old heifer calf. They had already killed it. Got a deputy over to the farm who seemed totally unconcerned. I told the neighbor that he could kill the dogs or turn them over to me. No dice. I told him then that if...

I was on the way home yesterday and passed by a place, I won't call it a farm because there is obviously no farmer there. There were about 20 cows in a lot that were so poor you could count every rib. These cattle were in the worse shape of any I've ever seen. Should I try to buy the pitiful...

I don't usually get scared in storms. Yesterday afternoom brought me to the realization of how bad hailstones can be. It broke the windshield of my old ranger pick-up, beat up a calf that straggled behind the rest of the cattle. It actually bloodied him up on the nose and down his back in a...

My little girl is 18 today. Sorta happy, but kinda sad. Happy birthday Ivy. Daddy loves you. :heart:

Do any of you have any American chestnut trees on your place that you know of? We have an appearent comeback of the American chestnut here in Tennessee. They appear to be blight resistant now. I understand they are available for planting from the university of Tennessee. There are a few farms...

I got to the barn yesterday afternoon and found everything loose re-arranged. Winds were gusting to 60mph. Steers holding on to fence posts. Chickens had safety ropes on to keep them from blowing away. It was rough here. Just wondering how everybody else made out. :shock:

I guess ya'll heard that Willie Nelson has released the first gay cowboy song by a major entertainer. Now Willie is one of the brokeback cowboys. Another one bites the dust.....or something. :roll:

Congratulations on your new status. :clap:
