    True Story: idiot in the drive thru

    Must be an Aggie thing TB. Same thing happened to me while attending A&M. Was walking across campus with my brother when we passed the most gorgeous young lady I believe I had ever seen. So much so that it knocked the breath right out of me – or maybe it was the large live oak tree I hit, or the...

    History was made in Erath County, TX

    Well, how about that! There was a wet/dry election in Stephenville in the early 80's when I went to school there - but it failed. No matter, Cross Timbers, Silver Spur, and other clubs were easy to join. Gas was alot cheaper back then and the beer run to Proctor wasn't that bad. :clap:

    2nd Amendment & Supreme court

    The 5-4 decision scares me to death; it should have been an unanimous decision. Next, open carry in Texas! http://www.petitiononline.com/texasoc/petition.html

    Guns on Campus.........YES!!!!

    As of 12/31/2006 there were 258,162 CHL individuals in the state of Texas. You have most likely been in the vicinity of one of these folks on the freeway, at Wal Mart, etc. The hysteria of mass slayings by crazy idiots, uncontrollable freeway rage shootings, high noon shootouts, more dead...

    Guns on Campus.........YES!!!!

    I remember a shooting at a university in Virginia. See cut from an article below. " It took place at a university in Virginia. A student with a grudge, an immigrant, pulled a gun and went on a shooting spree. It wasn’t Virginia Tech at all. It was the Appalachian School of Law in Grundy, not...

    Christmas Gifts for Customers

    I attended a production sale once and received a lock-blade pocket knife with the ranch name on it. I think about it everytime I use the knife to cut hay strings (net), open feed bags, etc. Thought it was pretty neat.

    Movie "Silent Running"

    I think Walt Kelly addressed this in his quote, "We have met the enemy and he is us!"

    they are out down this way

    The way I heard it in East TX was hang them belly up; if they turn over it will rain w/in 24 hrs. If they stay belly up - no rain. Also heard the same about coming back in 24 hrs. to find the mate. Usually kill 3-5 around the house/barn each year.

    right or wrong?

    In the second grade I had a girl physically beating the snot out of me so I hit her back. Teacher made me sit out recess the rest of the week. My ol' man "explained" why I should not hit girls; he was a man of few words. Must have made an impression, I have not hit another girl in 37+ years...

    Mud!

    I have never tried it in reverse, guess it would work but would be concerned with the front wheels falling into the holes left by the back wheels and getting stuck all over again. Never tried this procedure with a truck.

    Mud!

    sidney411, Here's a trick I've used with success several times that does not require an anchor point near by. Get two strong poles about as long as the tractor. I usually just cut down a couple of straight elms approx. 4 - 6" diam. Lay one pole on each side of the tractor up against the wheels...

    TO ALL KIDS WHO SURVIVED THE 1930's 40's 50's 60's and 70's

    Interesting, but keep in mind these kids grew up to be the parents and grandparents of today that formed the society our kids/grandkids live in today. We have identified the enemy, and he is us.

    Don ,t you just hate this when it happens (pic)

    Sometimes it does, you just have to keep repeating until you are on solid ground. If you had enough chains, I guess you could make sort of a ladder out of it, should work something like snowshoes.

    O.K. sidney411, I'll share but a little disclaimer first: I am not recommending or suggesting, only sharing. Thus, not responsible for damage to equipment or person. So here is what he showed me; I've used it several times with success. Get two strong, straight poles (I usually cut a few elm...

    Don ,t you just hate this when it happens (pic)

    When you bury them like that, how do you get them out? My Uncle showed me a little trick when we got his JD stuck in the middle of a 70 ac. sweet potato field with now way to get another tractor or wench truck to it.
