Just saw this on FB,

I changed my cat litter box, put a FedEx box in its place. When it is full, I just tape it shut and set it on my porch for someone to steal...

I might have to take it to town and leave it on someone's porch since we don't get much traffic on our porch here in the rural area..

People with poor balance best not come around as you have to negotiate junk, narrow isles and cluttered stairs in the barn.

One thing! If anything should happen, DO NOT RESUSCITATE. Then it's pretty much a free-for-all. If you can carry it, or drive it away, it's yours.

Wait, IT, I wanted to bring a trailer load of barn junk to drop off. You mean you wouldn't have room?

Mythconceptions:

- I wouldn't trade a rough barn queen, carbureted Corvette w/<35k mi for the right CUT.
- I wouldn't throw in a Harley or two, or a NH skid-steer if it was an '06- '13 Branson with HST, SSQA, & R-4s.
- you needed to see this.

The bacon or the sausage have more than enough salt in them to flavor breakfast. It is all in what you get used to.

Exactly right. Many years ago, I thought you were supposed to salt eggs when you cooked them, but I quit that long ago, and sure don't miss the salt.

Many years ago, I heard that when J. C. Penney was considering someone for promotion, he took that person out to eat, and if that person salted his food before he tasted it, no promotion. Penney didn't care how much salt a person used, as long as he tasted the food first. He said it showed a lack of judgment to salt food before he knew whether it needed it or not. Now I agree with the sentiment, but I understand that story was not actually true. But my wife is one of those who immediately looks for the salt shaker anytime we eat in a restaurant because she's going to salt everything before tasting it.

I once read that and never forgot it. I tried tasteing the food before electing to add salt, but am convinced it's mostly pschological, so in a sense, the J.C. Penny method may have been flawed.

Quite sure I read a post on here this past year that said something to the effect. "To have less problems with a tractor they have to worked hard."

When I decided to stop adding salt to food years ago, I figured I would still salt my eggs though. As it turns out it was no big deal.

Why then, can't they just take all the SALT OUT.

That may be what the Dems are going to do if they get their chance at tax reform.

Sorry US joke.

That is funny.
Many years ago when I repaired tv's I would have a large console or rear projection junk set to get rid of. I'd roll it to the end of sidewalk when closing with an invoice on it, big letters "paid in full...hold for Mr. Johnson will pick up early morning".
