They have cameras Bill.

I showed the wife the video of the tire girl and she said she might go tire shopping tomorrow.

Got excited for a second today. Saw this pulling into the gas station and after a quick glance, thought l was going to meet Larry. Upon further review, I noticed it said farms

[Boog]

That could be his Other brother Larry?

[flashed]

Maybe he is venturing out and Growing Weed .

[Boog]

And he calls it a "turf farm" maybe. Yeah, I see.

[special-K]

Probably just another one of his corporations

The bed is too short to be one of ours. I did pick one up real similar to that a year or so ago just east of you, at Mechanicsburg, OH. I stopped by Advanced Design's place on that trip. If I get back up that way I'll holler.


I went west the last time and couldn't find a soul to bother. I came back down across Wyoming and Colorado and saw a bunch of untouched tin. Here are some pictures of that trip.

My dad loved farming, mostly cattle. We had cattle when I was young, but cattle didn't fit me very well. Every time I planned something, a cow got sick. I thought my dad was going to disown me when I told him I was going to get out of the cattle business.

It was a great day that I sold out. I actually got enough money out of them to pay the loan off.

[flashed]

You sound like my Brother N Law ,he has about 150 head ,all on free land ,part of which is mine ,but he dont make No money on cows . Its his only means of income ,drives new trucks ,has no debt but makes no money on cows . I wonder if he just prints his own .

[Killer Bee]

my family enjoyed raising cattle and freezers packed with great beef!

fun animals to watch, almost as entertaining as chickens

farming was tough and frequently in the red but cattle always seemed to make make a profit with ~100 head +/-

neighbors lease our land to run cattle nowadays but I hope to have a small herd when I retire back home..

kids watching cattle this past summer





repurposed stock tank - red neck swimming pool



fed cattle out of this barn up through the 80's.. dad and I lofted 2000 bales one cutting..



dad later had this built next to the old corral.. external feeders on both sides..

So far no denial, could be true?

[special-K]

No... no... If he straight up denied it that would mean we hit the nail square on the head. He's in the wrong state for that. That's why you'll see those red Chevys with Davis Phamaseutickles on the door. They're 50 state legal!

That's a good plan Killer. A guy retired from a couple of Government careers can probably afford to farm. It looks like you have a good setup already in place. You need to get back there and tend to it.

That uncle that went to breakfast with us bought property back here all his adult life so he could come back when he retired, and then his kids grew up out there. Now he is liquidating property here so he can stay there.

I'm not a grower, but I had a plan for distribution. I was going to bore a system of tunnels right into rec rooms, and deliver with plastic canisters like a bank drive through. Then they legalized it, and the bottom fell out of the market. Now we are back to running water and poop under the road.

[special-K]

Oooh, shiny new! That'll lay some miles of pipe.

Just tonight my daughter told me she was down in Washington, DC and they were stopped by guys doing work. Gus, my 3 1/2 year old grandson, lowers his window and says, "Hey guys, what are you working on?". The one guy says, "Hey buddy, we're laying some new pipe". Gus asks, "What was wrong with the old pipe?". Guy tells him, "The old pipe was rusty". Gus says, "Oh, that's cool. Talk to you later", just as they started pulling away. I'm telling you that boy is a whip. But who's grandson isn't?

[davischevy]

My daughter took my grandsons to the park today.

All this talk of laying pipe is cracking me up.

Man, has that porn spammer altered this site permanently?

Other Larry, I forget. Are they brothers or cousins? They are lucky to have each other close in age.
