That's funny, we used to do the same thing. We had railroad ties in our landscaping and those things would crawl and leave their slime trails all over the place so mom would do the same thing...hand over the carton of salt and tell us to go have fun.

How cool is THAT!!! I love old things...

You know, HD, we've refinished hardwood floors before and its not that bad a deal...you rent the sander. The worst part is buying the discs...if there's a lot of varnish on the old floor then it tends to "gunk" up the discs pretty bad...but we did it so you might consider giving it a try...

I was wondering that too....when we built our house we spent our $$ on a few luxuries inside and skimped on the siding...so...its not really "us"...we'd love to change it to cedar lap siding...with our style of house it'll really give it a country/lodgy look but I'm hesitant because I thought we...

Cypress, Good to hear from you!!!! Even if just say hello...just remember we ALL continue to think of you and keep you in our prayers....hope to see the day soon when you'll be back on the boards and feeling better. Hugs to you and yours..

I just want to make a formal apology to DonnaIL....I received a PM from her saying that she obviously hit a nerve with me by saying "who cares" because I used so many capitals... I'm probaby wrong here...but I tend to capitalize ONE word when I want to emphasize it....those who know me, know...

Twisted...I do have Igenity/geneStar on most of the cows (still have to test a few) but its the ultrasound thats missing... Thanks...I'll look into that... Actually I'm going to have to RETEST everyone due to the new GeneStar system just so I can make an apples/to/apples comparison of my cows....

Not funny, Larry, my husband has pulled that crap with me and after he starts laughing I tell him, "Buddy, you're going to be up sh@t creek without a paddle if it ever happens for real"....next time I'm going to put the twist on his jewels to "verify" he's still amoung the living!!! That should...

Yes, that's why I asked Qberry (see "Grey Bull" post) if the bull he's looking at was approved for export...

Yes, I've spoken with Keren a lot before... she has a great bull, "Cappa"..

Forgot to mention...my Monarch Oak genetics come from Monarch Oak Extra who is a Wee Gun Tjandamarra son... Also have some Temar Lotus...

I currently have 3 Katuna-bred females and am waiting on Lerwick Park Buckley (all Orcadia Park) to come in (just ordered)...my current bull is out of Lindsay Elect (Willalooka Java son) and his dam was a Willalooka Power daughter... He had the best overall ultrasound from the Midland Bull...

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Well, I might think so but he's a lover (in more ways than one! haha) so I've petted him and know he's REAL. :lol2:

Here in the U.S. we always hear they do so well ... (in Australia)..and since a lot of us here use Australian genetics I can't see why we can't do as well here. I personally am tired of people asking "whats THAT" when I say I raise Murray Greys. So, because I do love them so much I'm constantly...

This isn't hard to explain...as I know it happens a lot... but... We had an old tom cat (NOT OURS..just a WANDERER) who decided to camp out with our barn females and answer natures call. Well, hubby got sick and tired of looking out the window every morning and watching nature call...(along...

Murray Grey..."The GENTLE builders of beef"... :banana: (yes I love my breed...)

Donna, please don't jump on the defensive...you didn't hit a nerve with ME... as I stated, I didn't mean to offend you EITHER and I was just "making conversation"..but no the post was not about the value of ultrasounds..I was trying find out how to get my breed involved in carcass competitions...

mwj...where you at in IL??

Donna, No disrespect towards you either but I'm not looking to market "carcass data" to my customers...you're right..they don't understand numbers/give a hoot as long as it tastes good. Carcass data is for the BEEF producer wanting to "hedge his bets" that the consumer is getting what they want...

Well, without ultrasound what do you think of the "pelvimeter" tool...good thing or not? I've got a couple of "questionables" (just not real wide back there) and considered getting one but they're a little expensive...I think $179??? So I put it off but would invest in one if I heard they were...
