    Long treated posts in IN, KY or IL?

    We use oilfield pipe all the time. Either drive a spike nail into both posts for the pipe to rest on or weld a piece of flat steel to both ends of the pipe, drill or smoke a hole top and bottom of the pipe, and nail or screw the pipe to the post. Drill stem should be common in your area...

    Dying Young in Kentucky

    It seems our tristate area (Southern IL, Southern IN, Western KY) has an above average smoking level. I would say the use of chewing tobacco is even higher than smoking, but I don't hear much about that.

    Dying Young in Kentucky

    Not to hijack, but the EPA ain't all bad! I would be interested to see the longest lived counties. Hamilton County, which is a little west and south of me, seems to have an abnormally high amount of 90 and 100 year olds in the local obituaries. It's unreal, sometimes there'll be a couple of...

    Dying Young in Kentucky

    The EPA has required testing for Disinfection By-Products (DBP's) for this reason. My local water is always well below threshold in these categories. If anyone is worried about it, contact your local public water supply. They are required every year by law to provide consumers with a report...

    genetic tests

    I have three, two on the ground and one to come this summer. I'm not a Constitutional scholar, so I'll let the literal interpretations of the Constitution stand for themselves, how I feel about them does not change the basic rights and principles of the documents. I believe the founders would...

    genetic tests

    And that is why we have a Constitution and the Bill of Rights... if we were all required to wear tracking equipment we could solve a lot more crimes as well, but I won't sacrifice my rights for "security".

    Craigslist prize bulls

    Dang it, sorry for your bad luck. I would love to hear how his calves turn out. My experience with Salers wasn't real good, but the bull wasn't anything like that one either.

    https://carbondale.craigslist.org/grd/6018894088.html I think this one really is a prize. Not every day you see a national champ on CL.

    EPA Expands Power

    The EPA in and of itself is not evil. I deal with them on a regular basis, as a public water supply operator. The ones I deal with are concerned, common sense guys who I respect. I also don't believe that anyone who is sensible denies that there needs to be some standards for industry...

    EPA Expands Power

    The Constitution is all we have. As a nation, we had better get back to it or we will surely fall. It is our system of absolutes or principles, without those we've nothing but an organized anarchy.

    EPA Expands Power

    Whether you agree with the subject at hand or not, the root of the problem is that these gov't agencies and judges have far to much power. Laws in this nation are supposed to be made in Congress, then approved or vetoed by the President then the veto overridden, etc. These agencies and judges...

    EPA Expands Power

    Farm Bureau has been fighting WOTUS from the beginning, which is what they should be doing, not lobbying for more farm welfare programs. WOTUS is another example of extreme government overreach of power.

    Clarksville, TN

    There was a post about being friends with people we've never met a while back. I think this thread pretty much sums up that subject. Lots of good folks on here.

    Does Rock music no longer exist?

    The good music is out there, you just won't hear it on the radio. You got to hunt it down for yourself.

    Something for the folks from Missouri

    To you and all our other veterans, thank you for your service! :tiphat: The only military vessel I've been on is the LST docked at Evansville, IN. My maternal grandpa (Navy) and dad (Marines) both were on a Large Slow Target during their time. After seeing the little chain bunks hanging...
