    NEW SATELLITE INTERNET

    It looks fairly comparable in price, terms and equipment to the Starband system I use. In the almost six years I’ve been on Starband I’ve had some equipment problems such as modems going out. Very time consuming to get a human on their tech support line and it’s a challenge to get them to swap...

    favorite deer rifle

    Guess I’m plain and old fashioned. For deer the 30.06 never broke so I haven’t fixed it. All mine are scratched and ugly on the outside and clean and bright on the inside. That’s the way I am with shotguns and rifles. They work for me, not the other way around.

    Dick cheney

    Just got to this thread after seeing the other. Looks like several participants have never hunted quail. If you’re in good quail with good dogs you can easily walk/run 20 miles in a day. If you’re middle aged or older you’re going to get in a pickup between covey rises. You work the dogs...

    I’d rather go hunting with Cheney than driving with Kennedy.

    ants and electricity

    There’s definitely something about electrical fields that ants like. They have been the demise of contact points in many a relay. If it’s somewhere that you don’t care about the grass or landscaping it might not hurt to soak the ground with fuel or dirty oil. By accident of course (for the...

    Leasing farm for oil/gas exploration?

    There is no set bonus or royalty percentage that is considered "fair." It will vary widely depending on numerous factors. A few would be which particular play you have in question, seismic results near your specific location, log data from any old wells near you, oil and/or gas, the amount of...

    Gas heater parts

    Ollie I believe it's a Ray Glow. I'll have to pull the cover off to verify and find a m/n. Might have to fab some out of stainless. I've been told that putting a piece of screen wire in the orifice works great but it doesn't seem like that would last. Anybody know where to get stainless...

    Gas heater parts

    Does anybody know where I can get these? I'm not sure what they're acutally called. Burner tips? Ceramic ports? They are made of ceramic. One fits into each oraface in the manifold of an in-wall space heater out in our garage/utility room. Over the years they tend to become extremely...

    I’d like to add my congratulations.

    Great color aerial photo's of your place....

    It might have been mentioned before, but Google Earth is incredible. It takes a lot of bandwidth, but if you've got that it's really something. Very clear color pics of the metro areas. When you fly over the countryside it's not as clear but it's still better then most.

    Drought

    This drought is nowhere near broken. We had a wet winter last year but it was just a joke. Turned off on April fools day. It's going to take a lot more rain to even contemplate getting any runoff. But it's a start. Lots of pretty good sized calves had never seen rain till now. Let's hope...

    Sale Barns

    Beefy I'm just glad you didn't buy anything. Your place would already be overrun with disease and everything would have been sterile or gone lame before you got it home. Whew. That was a close one.

    Drought

    I'm proud to say we got 1.3" last night and today. And I'll take this opportunity to publicly thank the Good Lord for it.

    Great post Dun.

    Drought

    Thanks AZ. That must have been another fire. We had one on my granddad's home place a few years ago but it was from a line being down after a car hit a pole. A neighbor had somebody set fire to one of his hay lots. He lost a few dozen rolls. Next day he had the whole family moving hay to...

    In need of some advice

    As usual, pretty good advice from old stocky.

    Drought

    It's truly awful here in central Texas. The old benchmark that everybody used to talk about was 1957. Everybody that can remember it says it's worse now. We have trees dying. Even the cedars are showing stress to the point where I almost feel sorry for them. Oats and wheat never came up...

    International Gun Ban Treaty

    Last time I checked we are still a sovereign nation. Kofi Annan can KMA.
