Seems like yellow jackets will seek me out just to sting me. If there is a YJ nest within 200 feet of me I get stung. I was running a dozer clearing some trees and I turned up a big nest. I was getting nailed left, right and center. I turned that thing off and abandoned it for the day. After...

Thanks for the info guys. I'm going to check out that sight lavacarancher. I really like that pond greybeard. Looks like a place to sit and relax once in a while.

I built a roof over my handling facilities and I would like to install lights for night work. My problem is that it is not possible right now to run conventional power to that area. I am thinking either solar or battery power with a solar charger. Any experiences in this area? How long would a...

And I didn't make a single penny off of that song even though it was about me :lol:

Most everything on my farm is 10 years old or less. I started this one from scratch. I am also a bit anal about maintaining things. A sagging or broken fence worries me to death. A gate that doesn't swing or latch does the same thing to me. I can't help it. I also like curb appeal to my farm...

I'm sort of torn on the extra curricular activities. I can see both sides. The home school parents pay just as much in taxes for the public school to use as the public school parents. If the extra curricular activities are being funded by those tax dollars there should be equal access. I didn't...

Both my daughter and son were home schooled. Both have done extremely well for their age. My daughter went to college and maintained a 4.0 and received her degree in education. She is now married and works for the University proctoring exams for foreign exchange students. My older son maintained...

Every drop of water that has ever been on this earth is still on this earth. No more....no less. I get a kick out of the dirt people that are constantly screaming that we must conserve water. The earth is a sealed atmosphere. Water goes up in evaporation and it comes back down in rain. Maybe in...

I'm downloading this to use as a predator call......

My sister is an LMT. I get free massages once in a while. They are great for tense muscles and increasing blood flow around the nerves if the spine. I also see a chiropractor now and then. I have two ruptured discs in my lower back. Getting adjusted and stretched does wonders for reducing the...

I am an innocent until proven guilty kind of guy. What if you fire him and it is proven that he is innocent? If he us not a risk to the company....i.e thief or violent..then I would retain him until a verdict us handed down. Just my .02 worth.

I've been in management for about 20 years.......the farm still keeps me turning the nuts and bolts :mrgreen:

I wish I had taken better care of my hands over the years. I have broken all 8 of my fingers and several of those more than once. I taped it up and went on. I have broken 2 or 3 metacarpals in my right hand as well. Now I have arthritis in my fingers. They get stiff and hurt especially in the...

I had an umbilical hernia repaired last year. I am very glad I got it fixed. It was starting to cause me pain and brushing up against anything when I was carrying a load hurt like heck. It was about a 4wk recovery for me but I waited 6 weeks to start doing normal stuff. You body will tell...

Hillary / Holder ticket 2015?

If fast food goes to 15 an hour all of a sudden there will be some stiff competition for those jobs and the folks currently in those positions will lose them to better qualified, harder working, smarter people. They will go from 8 bucks per hour to 15 then to zero.

Nazi Germany surrendered in April 1945. Chuck Norris turned 5 in March 1945.....coincidence? I think not.

I found new ones online for 675.00 so I would probably do ok asking 400 for it. I could apply that cash towards a new toy that goes bang :)

I didn't buy it new. It was very slightly used. I cant remember what I payed. It was a package deal for it with some other stuff.

Looking around in the barn I found a filson heavy duty automatic head gate that I bought about 10 years ago and never installed. I has some light surface rust but in great shape. It has been under cover since new. Any idea what it is worth? It don't look like I am going to ever use it so I might...
