In what part of Kentucky does something like that happen? From what I've seen, Kentucky ain't fell off the deep end like Illinois yet, but maybe you all are catching up!

Nice Josey Wales quote! Anything in agriculture will make you rich, if you have enough time. Farming, cattle, etc. builds wealth, not always cash. An old man in my area who owns a couple thousand acres and probably 300 head of cows said cattle are like a savings account. They make you a little...

There's no jobs in our part of the state anyway, this will just run more out. On a positive note, Woolsey Energy is going to start drilling horizontal oil wells in White County! I leased them some of my ground(Edwards & Wayne County) a few years ago, maybe I can be a Jed Clampett before it's...

I don't have a dog in the fight, but don't sell the farm! That chunk of dirt will always be there, money has a way of slipping away. A cattle herd is also a long term wealth builder. I agree with the others, buy hay and/or get it custom baled. I can't afford a new moco or John Deere baler...

What kind of equipment and upgrades are you talking about?

https://encrypted-tbn3.gstatic.com/imag ... Z1bHIvDic5 I thought this might be what you're talking about, judging by the title.

My grandpa had one of those, my brother got it when grandpa passed away. They're a neat little gun.

Nice Kingpin quote, gotta love Randy Quaid!

My dad is scheduled for a fairly major surgery May 8. He asked me after surgery if it's ok for him to ride in a car, then why not a tractor?

This is one of the rare opportunities for me to be proud of our state legislature.

https://sawyer.com/products/sawyer-poin ... embly-kit/ A friend of mine recently took a mission trip to Haiti, where they distributed these along with buckets to the people there. He was really impressed with this system. Now I'm not a doomsdayer, but this seems like a pretty cheap insurance...

Maybe we should rename unborn babies "companion pets".

Both sides of the family pretty much got off the boat in Maryland and Virginia and migrated in a more or less westward direction, as my genealogist great uncle put it, hill-hopped west. Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, Indiana, Illinois. I recently viewed an Ancestry.com story which claims that...

My wife and I found out yesterday that our July baby is a girl (#3, I'm hopelessly outnumbered). This is some good information, thank you!

Unfortunately, a man died in the storm about 15 miles south of me, and his wife was injured. Please remember his family in your prayers.

At least they paid for it! I have a second cousin who put his inheritance in some weed program. According to the gov't signs every 100ft, there are no pets, horses, or ATV's allowed, totally illegal. Guess what cuz does, yep, rides his Big Red down there, hauling his dog pack to frolic on his...

I'm lucky, my dad made room for first my brother, and then me when brother gave it up. (Even though he told us to stay away from farming!) He really didn't have any wiggle room, either, as we've always been on the smaller side. I finally, after many years, have bought enough equipment to...

I realize that myself. I've farmed my entire life, and lost/gained numerous parcels over the years. It's just hard to see the prime pasture being replaced as marginal farm ground. Chances are that it will never be back to grass again, and there's normally some pretty good reasons why it's...

On the search for a few head of cows to fill my pastures back up after some culling, I stopped by the local stockyards the other day. I found out that some nice young cows are less than a mile from me, which is good news. I go talk to the owner, hoping to swing some pasture along with the...
