At least you were in the basement. My homeroom was on the second floor with 30 kids under rickety desks. Teacher told us we'd probably be close to nukes going off because of the Merican and Kanuckistanny power plants near Niagara Falls.

9/11 I was just getting ready to roast 10 bushels of red peppers. It came on the radio. Most of the day was in front of the tube. Beautiful fall day, blue sky, some fluffy white clouds. I remember the shuttles and Waco. Edges of memory are Robert Kennedy and MLK Jr. We skipped school and got...

It's easier just to drop something. Recently I dropped my keys and two people started to get them for me. Never happened 20 years ago unless it was money.

It's just a shadow. What is all the fuss.:rolleyes:

Looks to be a hi-beam switch.

Had a new roof put on the house and barn couple years ago. There was a time when I never would have dreamed of calling someone else in. I have become much more gravitationally aware as I age. Too many older people kick off after breaking a hip in the bathroom. I don't want to do it from the...

I looked at it when I went into the garage to get something out of the freezer.

Yes! It wasn't funny.🤬

When I was a kid the old man used to keep a couple milkers and he'd go to market every week in the winter to buy cattle for butchering. In the spring he'd get a couple about 6 month old calves to raise until the fall for us. Baby beef he called it. Part of the fence in their pasture was an old...

Don't feel bad, I had a brand new 1978 Smokey and the Bandit Trans Am and the T bars leaked the first time it rained. It had less than 500 miles. You just learned not to drive it on rainy days.

Pointing... at WHAT?:unsure:

... I was going to say something... damned if I can remember what...????

I was going to cancel mine a couple months back. Called my provider even. They slashed the price and then gave me a deal to combine it with my computer package. Went from over $50/mnth to about $7/mnth. For that money it saves me the trouble of updating things like Dr. etc. I'm lazy and I'll...

You know you're old when You call your father, "the old man" and you're older than he was when he died more than a decade ago.

Friend of mine worked at the local drydocks. New hires were asked if they were afraid of heights and tight places. They would answer no. Lot of them didn't make first break when they got in the boats.

aboot 15 years ago. I wasn't always this old.:LOL: Or even now.

At the track I've run a personal best of 3.7 seconds o to 60mph in my 2006 GT. It has over 650HP at the rears. No traction control.

Where else are they gonna go in the middle of nowhere.🤪

Years ago I knew a guy who worked in a higher end department store men's department. He was taking dress shirts out of their packaging and putting them onto the clothes hangers on the wracks. Box of 24 shirts was invoiced at $30. Shirt on the wrack price was $40 on sale/shirt. So, $960 retail...

Making a brekky BLT and it struck me. The old saying, "living high on the hog" has lost it's meaning. Originally belly/bacon meat was the cheap stuff. The higher cuts were the expensive parts. Now I can buy a pork loin for as little as $1.49 (rarely) $2 to $3 all the time and more if you go to...

First time I flew at least half the passengers smoked, the guy next to me was drinking from a bottle he brought on himself, the meal was good, got a pillow and blanket just by asking. You could ask to go up to the cockpit. The pilot joked about his name being Orville.

Ma said she'd quit when they hit a buck a pack. They were over $6 when she died and still smoking, lung cancer and all. Here in Canuckistan I've seen people ahead of me in line paying over $20 a large pack. And it's usually the people who look like they can least afford it.:rolleyes:

I don't smoke, never have, but I remember as a little fella riding my bike into town and buying smokes for my mother. The change was mine to get a treat. I was about 6 or 7, no ID needed, nothing but the cold hard cash. It hurt when they raised the prices because there was less change for my...

Going to get to the freezing mark and some sun. Supposed to be little wind so I'm hoping to get a few things done outside. Time to burn the junk barrel. Low 50s next couple days so going to get mucky, better get er done.

When the ladies are more interested in your cute dog than they are of you. Never thought Mutley would be my wingman.

I keep looking and looking but something is missing. Where is the red dot between his eyes?🤓

Everybody sounds so busy. Quit it, you're making me feel lazy (ier). :LOL: Around 25F and might break the freezing point. Might! What I hate is the wind. Steady for the last couple days. I managed to damage my right eardrum a few years back. While the hearing is OK certain tones and the WIND...

I run them around the property and down the road (a quite dead end ) and let them idle for an hour. Full warm up.(y)

Oliver (563) and Elie (2310)haven't started since I think October. Arnie (563) hasn't run in 2-3 weeks. Not enough snow. I might start them this afternoon just to warm them up and move them so the tires don't flat spot too much.

Good looking women that are geriatric or dead and you remember them when they were young.

Coyotes woke me around 4am. They must have had something cornered. Cold damp wind, furnace coming on regularly. Not super cold out, about 28F, just penetrating. Yesterday's slush accumulation now frozen. Should melt by afternoon at least in the sun. Nothing much planned for the day so a nice...

I sat here a couple minutes trying to think of something to say. F--- It. Ain't worth the time.

Last week we had days in the mid 50s. Today threat of snow storm and travel issues. Can anyone say Yoyo?

Frogger was my handle good buddy. I used to hop on a lot of 🦊y ladies.

My first new car, a 1978 Trans Am, had the CB radio option and I ordered it with a 8 track because that's what I already had at home. Who knew?

There's 14 years between me and my sister. my memories of her sort of begin when she went off to University. A big gift from the old folks was a transistor radio for her dorm room.

"Do you know where your children are?"

I thought, How big are they? Then I saw the pictures. Oh well.

With poor Mexerican tendencies.

I'm fed up with being told how much I should tip. What the hell is it with tipping? If the service is good I'll tip. I don't care to be told how much and no matter the service. I'm too old to be guilted into doing things I don't like. Go to European countries where the restaurant staff are paid...

You're old when the your new best friend is Gay, BENGAY.:ROFLMAO:

My nieces son came over, ignorant little punk, and he made fun of my dinosaur sound system. "Nobody listens to music like that anymore." My stereo listening room is 24'x32' with 12' ceilings. Top of the line equipment with Monitor Audio Gold speakers. 2 pairs of front mains, centre and 2 pairs...

They were even better at the Drive In. This story made the front page here in the St Catharines Standard. One couple being... amorous in the front seat some how got entangled with the steering wheel. They couldn't get untangled. After the movies finished, they were discovered in their...

couldn't really do it in most of my cars because of center consoles. I have noticed it done in older tv shows. I thought they were doing it for camera angels???? Never heard of it otherwise.

Not as many kids, otherwise same story. How the tables never buckled...?

Sinatra said she was thehottest piece of a-- he ever had.

So... turkey for her dinner?

60 is still visible in the rearview but fading. I can still paint the town red but that second coat is going to take a while longer. To deal with this I've invented the greatest labour saving device known to humanity, TOMORROW! Don't do today what you can do tomorrow. It allows you to rest...

Sure, until you trip over a sun umbrella that could be seen from the space station.:cool:

I have a bunch of old carpenter saws and crosscut saws. My nephew asked me what they were for and why I kept them. I told him they were environmentally friendly and keep on working when the power goes out.

Nice picture. 3-4 years ago we had huge numbers of doves. Sitting on the power line it was near impossible to get an accurate count. The last couple years they've vanished.

I've heard rumors of something called the "sun." Another gray day on schedule. We're at about 35F going into the lowish 40Fs. Just that damp uninspiring sort of day. Feeling a bit foolish still. I have a 2nd drive down the middle of the property that goes almost to the back. This time of year I...

SUPERPOWER everyone is afraid of? It's like that drunk uncle nobody talks about.

I don't care what it is. When it gets old and starts being fussy, I buy a new one. Cars, tractors, smaller equipment, wives etc. Not going to waste my time and life tracking down parts and pieces or trying to find someone to do repairs. Old crap is old crap. It might have been the cat's meow...

when it's a competition between your friends who takes the most drugs (prescription) and who's pains are the worst, who has the most Doctors, who has the best prepaid funeral plan, You've decided what everyone gets in your will and nobody really wants it. You're the cranky old guy in the hood...

How old did you say you were? That was normal back then. Plugs about every 10-12000 miles. Take them out and clean and gap them between. Points every 10000 miles which required the timing to be checked and adjusted. Carbs needed attention regularly. When people tell you that the old cars were...

I was resisting getting rid of my LL. Everybody in my life has this number, friends , businesses, government, DR, etc. Pain in the backside to update everyone. Finally it got up to $60/month. Nothing extra except call display. I called my provider and told them to cancel. "Would I stay if they...

I think that's a shot from the Cuyahoga river.:unsure:

He seems like a nice enough fellow.:love::ROFLMAO: It is Kalifornie afterall.

My parents place was the last house on a dead end road. There was a large turn circle that was also a part of the driveway for traffic to turn around. The edge of the circle was over the ditch culvert right upto the edge of their property. The mailbox was on their property but still easy for...

Same.

The place I grew up was at the end of a dead end road. The farm across the road from us only had a barn, the owner lived in the city. He had a Rotti to guard the barn. Being on his own the lonely mutt used to try to come over for some attention. Not a good idea. My parents at the time had 7...

I mix baking soda with a bit of vinegar to make a paste. Wipe it on the glass when its fully cooled and give a gentle scrub. Wipe it off with a wet cloth. It shines.

We're up to 20F here in southern Kanukistan. Expecting some light snow. Nice fire and cup of Joe. It looks kinda nice from inside. Have to go for some scans at the (a little girl I used to know used to say it this way) Hot Pistol this afternoon.

Like you hang around a bowling alley or library? I need details. I'm 62 and have so much spare time.

I agree. I do it visually by sidewall bulge empty and with a load. I'll also look at the lug pattern when I'm cultivating. Never had any kind of problem.

Yeah! I know. I was in there with him.:LOL:

Can I get a copy of this photo. I like that shot of me on the left.:LOL:

Inside and tucked away. I have EVERTHING under a roof. I have a large hay wagon. On it right this moment are 3 2 furrow 3pth plows, 2 6' cultivators, a subsoiler, and a box blade. On the trailer it's easy to move everything... under a roof. Fertilizer spreader and manure spreader are in the...

Lined up like Soviet tanks in May 1945

Unless you're voting for a president, or congress person or mayor, or chief of police... Basically anyone in a position of authority,

looks like my "high steel riveter" that attacks my eaves troughs every spring. Wouldn't be so bad if he didn't start at 3:30AM.

for such a handsome bird their voice is horrible

This work place thing? I don't think I know what that is. Could you post a photo?:unsure:

Buffalo is hit hard and as many know the big game is cancelled. About 30+ miles north where I'm located other than stupid winds and -6C we barely have a sprinkle. Because of the wind the furnace is working a bit harder and the sump pump is still cycling frequently from all the rain we had...

You haven't said what kind of surface you'll be working on. Is it a rolling or level field, a feed lot/barn yard? How high are you lifting? Are you just positioning them for feeding purposes at ground level or stacking them 2-3 high for storage? Will the bales occasionally be wet? That can...

I don't agree. I very much shop by the weekly fliers. Been bred into me since I became aware of grocery shopping. Their regular prices are about on par with local grocers. Some items a bit higher some a bit lower but overall a wash. When I find items on sale I buy enough to last a while so I...

You were constipated? :D

Here in Ontario Kanuckistan a large pack is pushing $20. Blows me away when I go get a couple lottery tickets thinking I'm pissing money away and some body ahead of me blows $40 on 2 packs. The kicker is the smokers you do see are usually the people that look to be the least able to afford the...

I see today that they are starting to drain the Welland canal above lock 2.

As a kid me and the old man were pulling old peach trees. My job was wrapping the chain around the stump. He was on the tractor. I didn't see them as I wrapped the chain but when he gave a tug they came out in numbers from under the root ball. I ran and only got a few stings. Before Pa could...

My first house cost me $48500. Bungalow, 1800 sqft 3 bedroom, 2 car large garage on a large lot. I'm looking at the new Mazda CX-90. Here in Kanukistan it runs $60k+, before taxes.

I asked a Dr. why they don't just do a cat scan. He told me that it could be done but if a polyp was found they couldn't do a biopsy right away. Can't question them but to me it would make a lot more sense to only do the invasive procedure if something is found not if it MIGHT be found. Part of...

Talking with my local dealer a few years back he told me Massey sends them to conferences to the different plants and all the new stuff, tech, yada, yada. He had a picture from the one plant ( I can't remember where) with 4 different tractors coming down the same assembly line for 4 different...

I swear the first doctor gets kickbacks from all the other doctors he refers us to. My family doctor a couple years ago sent me to emergency because he thought I may have a blood clot in my right leg. After 12 hours sitting there I finally got in and had an ultrasound. Found nothing. However...

From what I saw the nurse wiping down those pictured are much thinner and shorter.

You're old when you can say you did anything 50+ years ago

Not the worst thing to happen. The flushing fluid helps you find things you may have swallowed as a kid. Loose change that kind of thing. You sleep through the procedure. All I remember is being told to count back from a hundred. I think I started 98. Sort of a run through for what death is...

You're fully aware how much a funeral costs. It's part of the conversation with your remaining friends. You have almost the same variety and number of pills as the local pharmacy. You're on a first name basis with your pharmacist. You go to the pharmacy more frequently than the grocer. When you...

When Ma and Pa died, Almost to the day 6 months apart, I was shocked by the attitude more than the cost. My parents stated they only wanted a simple cremation. Most of their friends were gone and those still above ground were further away and the travel would have been difficult for them. When...

I'm about half way between Locks 1&2. From my front window I see the Port Weller Dry Docks (now Heddle Ship Yards). Interesting to watch the cranes moving things around. I used to go with the gang of mutts and sit on the edge and watch. Way too many ticks. The few hundred feet between the...

Yep. Floated past my place along the Welland ditch few days ago.

Forest for the trees?:LOL:

You're old... You start an excessive number of conversations with, "In my day..." or "I remember when" Or when you go looking for new jeans and marvel that at one time a 34" waist was too big. Now you can't get them up to your knees if you tried. The cute cashier at the local convience store...

My old man had a few of these. He cut mountains of railway ties and hardly had to sharpen the chains. The new ones even see grit at a distance go immediately dull. Want more power, add more oil to the mix. Smoked like crazy but never had a problem with the carb. New ones are so fussy.

Procrastination, world's greatest labor saving developement. Use it all t...

Don't have any idea where I got them but I have a similar collection. Also have no idea why I hang onto them.

I look at the grandma to see what the future has in store.☹️

You know you're old when you still look at the young princesses but know there's not much you can do about it.

You're old when you see some young kid doing something stupid that you used to do but don't/can't any longer and shake your head. "Dumb Punk, he'll learn!":rolleyes:

Better than the alternative.:oops:

No! Just lacks a sense of fear and self preservation.:cautious:

Not really. It just seems that way.:rolleyes:

That's NOT a third world country????????:unsure:

I'm not short(er), fat, old or bald. I'm follically and vertically challenged, highly experienced and calorically enhanced.:rolleyes:

Me, me, me,,, to.

Reminds me of an old one when you had to pay to use a public facility. "Here I sit broken hearted, spent a dime and only farted." In my house it's a long hallway to the main porcelain alter. More times than I care to admit to I've left a trail of clothing. Coat in the main entrance and the...

Don't I always say... BOSSOMS, is there anything they can't do?

You're old when you make groans sitting down and getting up. New Years eve is something you watch on the news the next day. Then you fall asleep watching the Tv and miss it all over again. All your stories of adventure and daring do are 40+ years old. You avoid going into the basement unless you...

Lucky you. I had mine pulled years ago. Dentist did one side and both of the wisdoms came out like nothing. Waited 2 weeks for that side to heal and went in to do the other side. Holy hell on earth. The top one came out easy like the first 2. The last one... Forty years later and I'm still...

How rich are you?:love:

I've had a Gc2310 for going on 17 years. Other than fluid and filter changes, a battery and a ground wire "Ellie" has been more or less bulletproof. A 1000' of driveway in N Michigan during a storm is a pretty good stretch for a sub compact of any make. I'd be looking at a utility size tractor...

Stuff is worth... The Mona Lisa is worth $200m. A stupid sports card is worth millions. M Ms dress is worth a mil. None of this crap is worth that kind of money. It's what people with money are willing to pay because they have too much. The rest of the sheeple just ooh and ah.

Everybody on TV begging for money telling me I can solve the World's problems for less than $0.68 a day. Food insecurity, cancer, abused pets, chronic masturbation... If I gave everyone less than $0.68 a day that asked I'd need the less than $0.68 myself.

My mother said you know you're old when police men and doctors look too young. I have aches older than my Dr.

From the walk down, not having lifted anything.:LOL:

Heavy fog for the last few days. 45 today and rain. Don't know the quantity but steady. Even the ducks are asking for a little sun.

Buy a Massey Ferguson

We have the same outlook.

To quote Dr. Dick Solomon, "bug humbar" Happy winter solstice everybody. 🦨

I can say the same. Seen pictures and she is easy on the eyes. I don't expect anyone to be the same as me because I am unique, like everyone else. However with all the important things going on a focus on someone like her, the KardASSians, etc just blows my mind. One person can work hard all...

Stupid is as stupid does. That's what I think of spending that kind of money on any act.

Happy BIRTHMAS!😁

We used to have 5 dealerships within an hours drive. This area has a variety of farm operations ranged from fresh fruit to cattle and grain. Each dealer sort of specialized in his own hood and overlapped some of the others. The nearest was 10 minutes. That was about 20-25 years ago. Now we...

Taylor Swift and her Swifties. Nuff said.

The backup beeper must drive the locals crazy.

Made in Amerixco? Amazing!

I can't tell what's what but... Once you figure it out my trick is to get a pack of multi color Cable Ties and put them on the different matching sides so that the next time you're not left scratching your head.

MASSEY! MASSEY!

I looked at new Ford SUVs. Same crap. Reason I'm looking at the new Mazda CX90 other than Ford's recent quality issues. How the mechanism works under the trim I don't care. I want and am comfortable with a shifter that makes it almost idiot proof (I have my moments) obvious which gear I'm in...

Thanks Captain Obvious. But obviously we are dealing with dumb asses. Obvious does not apply... nor logic, intelligence, safety of others...

Reading the title of this thread.

call the dealership feel silly when it turns out to be something obvious.

43F and dropping during the today. Off and on rain, gray damp and chilling if not exactly cold. Starting a fire in the fire place and putting up the size 12s with a Spanish coffee. Done for the day before it even starts. Brekky? More like brunch later.

Thank goodness for cashiers that can't do math. Went to Mark's Work Warehouse, guessing only in Kanuckistan, to get a coat, big sale going on. Found one for $69.99 less 25%. We have 13% sales tax. In my head I had calculated just under $60. I have my 3 $20 in my hand She says $79 and change...

One of the ships in NAVIBULGAR's fleet has been seized in the Arabian Sea by a currently unknown group. I don't know if RUEN has ever been here or not.

When I was knee high to a Jack Wabbit we had a neighbor used to do that. Slipped getting back on. Got mangled by the rear wheel and died after about a month in hospital. They put a real nice rock on top of him. Play careful out there.

I never realized there was so much Great Lakes shipping that doesn't through the Welland canal. I see CSL and Algo ships all the time. Obviously the giants can't make it through here but I never saw the Barker and a number of others you guys have mentioned. Learn something new all the time I guess.

I did something like this years ago to the ex. Just a small part of why she's the ex.

Defective lottery tickets. The store won't take them back even though the commercials clearly show everyone wins.😞

You should just go to the hospital if you need a colonoscopy.

SOB I had oatmeal with raspberries and evaporated milk. Swap?

I know the theory of why they float, however it still amazes me see such goliaths.

I didn't realize there were ships that size on the upper lakes. Makes the biggest ones in the Welland canal look like pigmies.

Master procrastinator. Doing nothing today so I have something to do tomorrow.

I bought this place about 20 years ago in a private sale. When I came to see it the owner brought out the drinks as we sat under the arbor at the picknick table. Out of the corner of my eye I caught a movement like it was an apartment building moving. It was the superstructure of a passing...

If it comes through the lower lakes I've seen them all. My property backs onto the Welland Canal. The deck lights lite up the inside of my house at night. Not super bright, but if I'm up for a drink or returning the drink rental I don't need to turn on any lights. The past couple years the...

Friend had to take them down. His trespassing sign had the picture of a gun sight on a guy down and a backhoe ready to bury him.

My quarterly prop tax is over $1500.

Probably women getting in the last word. :rolleyes:

Too much stuff and nothing worthy of remembering. Just know I withdrew enough money for 2 weeks last Friday and spent it all this week.:rolleyes:

Don't like bay leaf. I swear it was a smart way for some guy in the past to clear his lawn and make a couple bucks doing it. Bay Leaf (n)🤮

Soup creeps. I always have the intent of making a small pot but end up with an industrial size vat. Sometimes I get tired of it but when it's done I miss it. Soup does get better as it ages and the flavors meld.

The part of prewar Poland where my mother came from is now deep in Ukraine. The neighbor's son was dating a late 20s Ukrainian lady that had moved here recently and she had no idea that the borders had changed so much. Stalin in his paranoia shifted the borders west to further buffer his front...

Starting the day at aboot 35 but dropping, threat of snow later. Could be a half inch. What I hate is it's pretty windy. I must have been a dog in a previous life, I can't standing blowing in my ears.

Or everyone has fog lights that they run with all the time. The worst are on the jacked up trucks. As if their headlights weren't bright enough now you have the fog lights coming at you at eye level.

We had a small valley area and when I mowed down there I was pretty sure to het a rabbit each time. We had a German Sheppard back then. He wouldn't pay any attention when I mowed the rest of the farm but always showed up when I got close to the killing zone. He usually got his tenderized...

That'll be a noisy blow job. :rolleyes:

Us old old farts had the foresight to raise world temperatures enough to do away with ice flows. :ROFLMAO: And, besides that the warmth feels good on our old rickety joints.😎

28 F going to 35F. Cold is officially here to stay for the week. Nothing extreme, but not the 75F we had just aweek and half ago. Didn't expect it to drop this low so haven't turned off the outside taps. Went out around 4am to run them for a couple minutes. Don't want to shut them off (pain...

nothing like golf clubs to distract dust from other surfaces.:rolleyes:

Bought several multi directional led lights. They have 3 panels each that you can adjust and it gives you 6000 lumens. They screw in like a replacement bulb. Put 2 up in my attached garage. It's large, you can park 2 full size pickups with doors open and have plenty of room to walk all the...

They hook you with the batteries. I have DeWalt stuff. None of the batteries are interchangeable from brand to brand so you get trapped in their world. I've passed some good sale items over the years because of this.

beat me to it. Years ago they knew the model and they cared about the hours and condition. Now they play the year game like car dealers. Anything to beat your trade value.

Black Friday starts today here in Kanuckistan. We had our Thanksgiving a month ago. The retailers had to start doing it here because so many Kanuckistanians were going over to shop bargains in Imperialist USA. Looking at some tools that are 60% off. Pissed off that a LEM meat grinder I bought...

The older we get the more things that bug us. Or we just don't care who we piss off.(y)

You ain't the first. An ex of mine using my front loader did similar. You don't have to put much in and she filled it to the line inside the filler. Probably 5 times what I normally use. Had to wash everything two times after without soap to get it properly rinsed. :ROFLMAO: Oh well! At...

Who said that? 🥸

Tank of gas for my Flex. $90 Kanuckistan money. Good deal as it's slowly come down from $1,70 a Litre to about $1.40 or aboot $5.30 a US gallon. Diesel is about $6.90.

Drives me crazy on cooking shows when they have to reach in and mix stuff (usually meat) and leave their rings and jewelry on. Who in the real world cooks all dressed up. One in Particular is an old Italian lady who wears probably a dozen gold hoops on her wrist. I can't wait to see them...

Every filter is normal maintenance.

How many wives? :ROFLMAO:

Before I looked at your location I thought you were somewhere in Kanuckistan. I thought medical services in the Excited States were provided much quicker than here. Hope all is good. Everybody deserves a new Cadillac. Explanation. I knew an older Italian guy who couldn't pronounce cataract...

I hate the term, "Pet Parents or fur baby." Unless your significant other gave birth to your cat, dog, snake... You are not it's parents. If she did give birth to one of the forementioned you better start checking for paternity. And the statement, "I can't lie..." Sure you can. You're...

It's Monday. Wake me when it's over.

Good thing you didn't strain yourself getting into descriptions.

Again?

When did you manage to steal my table and chairs?

The 135 with the 4 cylinder diesel and the gas 3 cylinder never did run great. The Continental gas 4 was a decent engine and the Perkins 3 was very good. An older tractor like yours might need other engine work. Sell it off for parts and find a good used tractor with fewer hours on the clock...

The warmth has left us. Coming week lows in the 27-30 range and daytime highs around 40. Perfect for a hoody and get to the cool weather tinkering.

Certain foods that taste great when eaten but can't stand the smell of on a plate or spoon etc the next day. Ketchup, peanut butter, stale beer come to top of mind

I've had one for about 20 years. Semi-mount behind MF563. I've gone through grass that was easily hip high. The side shift comes in really handy getting under trees and ditch edges. Mine is a 540. Only problem I've had is one of the outer gear boxes started to leak so bad that You couldn't...

Cans, bottles, wrappers the litterbugs in your area are amateurs. I've had an entire living room set dumped in my ditch. Just down from me some person dumped an entire dismantled shed. Guessing about 12x12. The town sent 2 dump trucks, a backhoe and a small army of workers (workers :ROFLMAO:)...

Frank was a real character. He was maybe 5'4", kind of sickly but not an ounce of give. His barn, 50 years on, still stands straight and so does the house he built. Both big structures all built from recycled materials. On my best day ever you couldn't have got me on the roof of that barn. He...

About 55 to start, windy, rain all day. Cooling as the day goes on to mid 30s by tonight. To the rec room, start a fire (in the fireplace) and take a well deserved after brekky nap.

Upto 4 now. Two matching MF563s, one has a loader. Gc2300 and 1725m with a loader. I'm on 6 acres so I'm more than good. In the day a friend of Pa's had about 60 acres. It was more of a hobby for him as he worked in a local auto plant. He raised about a dozen head of cattle and some goats...

Only if the Wizard of OZ blows them over

I use a few 3 furrow plows but never on virgin sod. I took my coulters off and never use them. Sitting in the barn somewhere.

WELL? What happened?

Do that and the Popo would charge you! The nerve! 😒

he claims to have kept track of the milage and fuel he's pumped himself. Faulty chinese calculator with only 9 digits?

Got BSed yesterday by a neighbors friend. He has a 2500 GM 4x4 crew cab with gas engine. He claims over 30mpg (imperial) towing a 7k lb trailer. I'm lucky to get much above 20mpg in my F150 empty. Just one of those guys you listen to and try not to roll your eyes.

It's Monday, I'm up. What the F... do you want? 😒

I spent my youth and a significant part of my adulthood "Riding Masseys" Most people call me P. I. even though most don't know where it comes from. They'd be embarrassed if they did. From my wilder youth I had something of a reputation. Pu=sy Injector. 😇
