    You Know You Are Old When

    I tried that after about ten times of it not working in the first year but they wouldn't take it off the bill. Of course it quit working again so I just never reported it and have had much darker nights since. The last 30 years have been very pleasant even if I did have to pay an extra...

    You Know You Are Old When

    Sadly though the guy died a few years back and the corporation he had is now being led differently. It is not same as it was. A good friend that was in charge of a group of the restaurants told me that back in 2009 because of the tough economy they dropped their prices for any large two...

    You Know You Are Old When

    When we fitrst moved to Indiana everybody raved about the Pizza Hut as the best. We laughed because our experience had been in other parts of the country. Then we found out that the local franchisee kind of went his own direction and they were the best in the area by far - he owned 50 or more...

    How agriculture works thread

    New Idea were great machines for certain things, i.e. picking corn, chopping silage, etc. but it took about a day to change it over and get it all tuned up and ready and if it rained your power unit was tied up whereas with a pulltype unit the tractor could be unhooked and used elsewhere.

    How agriculture works thread

    They ran it a year ago on my cousins farm in Lebanon, SD. He said he was impressed at the piece of equipment but would never have one. Everything locked into one piece of equipment - if it is down what do you do? Especcially up north the growing season has limited days and if you miss a week...

    You Know You Are Old When

    I have a few contractor friends and I was talking toone of them a couple of years ago and asked what happened to another contractor that was no longer around. His reply was that this guy was very rigid in his days off and would not go out to see jobs. He said that he used the opposite...

    How about Downton Julie Brown? I met her once - that lady had presence. She also had a master's degree in electrical engineering but the Gig on MTV paid a lot better.

    Shop ideas to consider

    I suggest a floor that has a slight slope toward a door for easy washing out/cleaning. As we all know flat floors are not flat and one that has a small natural drainage is very handy. I did it in my 40 x 60' shop and I do still have one place that holds a little water but the rest drains nicely.

    You Know You Are Old When

    So I can blame it on the paper - the obits are on page two or four of the front section. The sports, comics, puzzles are all in the second section.

    Shop ideas to consider

    I have an insulated shop but do not use it often so I tend to keep it just above freezing. I chose a ventless infrared heater because when I pull in a vehicle to work on it heats the vehicle not the air around the vehicle which then slowly heats the vehicle - much nicer to work on that way...
