A Mega Thread That Makes No Sense

[Cahaba Valley Farm]

I was perusing through the site tonight when I stumbled upon a mega thread I had never seen before. The number of views, replies and pages is astonishing. I had no idea there were any threads on this site that had gotten to that size. I thought the flail mower thread was the biggest. However, what blows my mind even more is the fact that there seems to be nothing of substance in this thread. The content is mostly members waking up every morning to say hello and report what the temperature is outside. What the heck???....Guys help me out here. What am I missing with this picture??

Good morning!!!!

Just thought I'd start a Good Morning thread. Dry, and headed into the low 60's here in S. Michigan. Have a good one!!

That's about it... it's the friendly side of TBN.

I'm surprised you haven't mentioned/perused "Pallets in Field".

Yeah since I started this thread I began to take a closer look and it seems to be the equivalent of Arnold's Drive-In for TBN. Weird as I never knew such a thing existed for this place. I tell you this place is like Pandora's box at times.

No never but I'm going to check it out now.

That "Good Morning" thread is the equivalent of old guys at the country store sitting around drinking coffee. I don't go there, but some of the posters I notice seem to be members who were active long ago, but now just stop by to check up on old friends.

I guess I can’t go there cause I’m not “old”.

It reminds me of my old employer. We used to have a cafeteria. Every Thursday, retirees could come in and get coffee and a free donut. About a dozen of them would be there like clockwork, sit around a couple tables pushed together, and just talk. Our coffee break was at 9:00, so we'd go down to get a donut, and catch up with the retirees. Many of them had mentored us when we first started, and they'd ask how things were going, how's the family, etc.

Sometimes it's just nice to sit around and talk about the light stuff with friends.

Then, someone turns in a cost improvement to take away the free coffee and donuts for the folks that built the company into what it is, probably someone that was hired straight into management with no understanding of how the company actually got where it is. That snowball just keeps growing.

No. The company that they contracted with to run the cafeteria didn't renew their contract because it wasn't profitable. They put it out to bid, and no one took it. So they closed the cafeteria and put in vending machines.
