I guess there isn't any point in taking it down now as there are 250 views to this thread, but I had explicit directions for a certain older gentleman who will remain unnamed yet has the moniker of an abundantly noxious and spiny plant to keep the "chicken judging" thing under his "wing." As...

The receiver hitch was used as an extension to the pipe wrench. The two 18' pump rods I was trying to disconnect needed a little extra leverage in order to break loose. With a little "cowboy ingenuity," I was able to secure one wrench with a full sized fence post snug against the lead pipe and...

3 M L&C: I have temporarily misplaced that hat at the moment, but I think I remember who the manufacturer is. I believe it to be a Larry Mahan Guatemalan palm leaf. I thoroughly soaked the hat in water when I first received it and shaped it to what it is today. Good luck! P.S. I must admit...

The seven year old baldie, discussed by Soapweed in a previous thread, was hot after me from the comfort of my pickup cab. I had her calf up close to the floor board with the door somewhat in between the cow and myself. Everything would have been fine if I could have reached down and tagged the...

Hello C-E, I got my bloodhound, Archimedes, from skyranchbloodhounds.com. They were very nice people and are located at Seward, Nebraska which would be fairly close to the Kansas border. I love my dog to death but I must warn you that bloodhounds are one of the hardest to train animals in the...

Here is my question for those of you with experience, are they worth eating? In comparison, does feral hog taste to commercial pork what deer venison tastes to beef? They probably wouldn't taste too bad if they've been eating from cornfields...

I personally like to let my dogs kill them around 1-2 months so that I have to order all new birds! This method has proved successful as I never have to worry about getting them out with other birds. All joking aside, I think it varies from breed to breed. I haven't had a problem yet but I...

You nailed it on the head Flying S. Though it is taboo to wear wedding ring/rings in our profession, the only time I am concerned is when I am roping. As you said, paying attention is very important when roping. For example, keeping your thumb up as you dally and other rules of the like...

My ring is tungsten carbide so it will shatter before it bends around my finger. The only thing I need to watch out for is getting it caught on something. I appreciate everyones' concern for the well-being of my finger, but I am probably going to continue to wear my wedding ring to work. If a...

Soapweed is gone traveling but I am still here. I figured that a quick break from the wind was needed so I guess I will post a reply here as well. The shed is damaged beyond repair. Sparky said that fixing it would be good money chasing bad. Him and I are getting what we can from it for...

Pig Farmer Wrote: Sounds to me like you should be a crop farmer instead of a pig farmer with all those seeds that your planting. :wink:

It was real tough shaving my hard earned growth, but my halloween costume didn't really jive with a beard. However, pictures in months to come will start to show my five-o-clock shadow again because I have no intentions of ever shaving again. :wink:

Do I detect a little jealousy perhaps? :wink: It has taken years to perfectly refine the growth of hair in certain spots of my face to provide the perfect blend of warmth and aesthetics! :)

Just call me Malachi! :D I saw dad's pictures and decided that it was time to shave... Now my hair looks too long so I imagine I will have to get that cut soon to fit my baby face!

Does the saying "the pot calling the kettle black" happen to apply here? Sound advice though! Good night. :D

next Kosmo Kid?? :) :D I think he might just have me beat! This feat looks like it takes way more talent than what I have done with a well-broke gelding and cinched-up saddle for good footing.

Hi Cal. I was just curious if you and Cody became s.c.u.b.a certified after your trip? My wife and I agreed that the scuba diving was the funnest activity we did whilst on our honeymoon in early July. We both want to become certified so that we don't have to go through instruction everytime...

Huskermimi, I am sorry to hear about your son. It is easy to get too comfortable around heights and windmills when they truly are as dangerous as the business end of a pistol or a rattlesnake. I doubt that I will invest in a harness or safety belt, but I will still heed your advice on being...

I agree Big Muddy, I am getting the short end of the rope! Hopefully there are still a few calves left when I am home and graduated next week. I have been pretty busy on the weekends and I haven't really had a good opportunity to drive 6 hours home to help brand... :(

Well heck! Is this fight just limited to the women? Unlike most, I think I will actually have the pleasure of working with Brady on friday. :D Just kidding everybody. I just thought this thread could use a little more humor. See you tomorrow Dad.
