[QUOTE="Kathie in Thorp, post: 937617, member: 16769"] This is not a challenge for me, MF. I have over 30 years experience in my field. I have no college degrees, and once I got to be about 45, my employers finally stopped offering to help finance a law degree that I had no interest in pursuing. I don't own 60 head of cattle, and don't plan to, but the dozen or so usually on the place are paid for. I can't be positive, of course, but I'm pretty sure our home-place is worth more than your tractor (oh, oops -- that just came out). We have 2 great, college-educated, hard-working adult children and 4 bright, polite, talented grandchildren. Unlike you, I don't presume to know the entire encyclopedia of cattle husbandry and understand how ridiculous it would be to tout "mine are better than yours" at every available opportunity. Unlike you, I know the difference between the usage of "your" and "you're" (you may get that with more experience). Unlike you, I would never, ever have made some of the vicious personal attacks you have thrust at others on this board when your opinion is not prized -- things like (and I'm paraphrasing) your assumption that their sons will grow up to be as ignorant as they are. If I knew your given name, I would use it and spell it correctly; but since I don't, I'll use "MF", which is how we first met you/came to love you on CT Board. And I can't be certain, but I'm pretty sure I have more than one friend on this Board -- and YOU? [/QUOTE]
