That would be I, whiteface. Wish that was the Agribition curtain! If I had had the money in 2003, it probably would have been. Actually that picture was taken in front of a blue tarpulin that we strung up in our 4-H barn during our local fair a couple years back. Usually take pictures outside in front of a white board fence, but it rained like crazy that weekend in August.

Don't know if you read this thread I made a few weeks back,
http://ranchers.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=421 Wondering if you do have any sons off of that bull this year.

Also wondering what people are saying your way about the increase to a $5/cow WHE fee for the CHA. Heard a few people around here that were ticked last year about the CHA not dropping it's fees in light of low prices. I didn't mind so much, but this year....I am more then just a little peeved at CHA. Also wondering where the Digest has the nerve to hike it's subsciption prices to $45. Does the Digest use subscription money to pay for all the free Links it sends out to commercial producers? Switching to Ted's magazine this year. Ok...end of rant. Very Happy

That little comment says you don't know jack sh$$ about the R-calf people. I say 99.9% of R-calf people know more than you do about cattle. You sure show your smarts with your wise mouth.


Hey there rancher, cool down a little. I'm smack dab in the middle of R-calf people everyday.

I don't care if 99.9% of R-calfers know more than I do about cattle. I started with nothing, make a good living and don't have to go to town every day to a job.

That's great! You're probably in the .01% that does. Wink

Here is how i see things going to happen...

USDA and the Bush Administration have to implement the rule as published. This is cause they cannot be seen letting one judge overturn a federal trade policy. If this happens then all trade agreements the US goverment does not mean anything. It sets a precidence.

This means that RCalf is really fighting your own federal treasury and we all know you can't win that one. But then I aint an RCALF member and am a Canadian so maybe I have frost bite on the brain and dont know anything about cattle...but thats the way i see this all settling out in the end. The only question is how long will it take before the US treasury bankrupts RCALF.
