    ? for Macon

    I have the same setup RM & sometimes I just give up on this site. Some days I might read 3-4 posts ok & then the next hit just sits there until I get disgusted and quit.

    Cowboys and economics in Wyoming

    Kola, I was not in any way making excuses for big oil or the way they run their business. I was addressing the ‘not in my backyard mentality’. To reduce our dependence on foreign oil, we have to look at every means possible. Someones peace & tranquility is going to be disturbed! Some birds...

    Cowboys and economics in Wyoming

    I could hear very little of this as I am having speaker problems. (no volume). The little I did hear sounded a lot like “Yes we need it, but not in my back yard mentality”! The proposed wind turbines in Montana were stopped because they didn’t want to see it on their landscape. Besides, the...

    Ted Turner buys another 26,000 acres in NE

    Most all of these stories are about 99% false. However, they are neat or funny & are fun to receive & pass on. That is what keeps them alive. After a time everyone has a friend, neighbor, brother-in-law, etc. who was there. That is how they become ‘urban legends’. Take for instance the...

    looking for wisdom

    Since land is the largest purchase most of us will make in our lifetime Goodpasture, I don’t believe you can share too much information about it. Thanks It seems many are forgetting this owner is turning over his cattle & his land to a young man. He certainly is taking his share of the risk...

    looking for wisdom

    There are no guarantees of anything in this world. There are daily risks & rewards no matter what we do. I believe there is an old saying about a turtle not being able to take a single step without poking his head out of his shell! Sounds like this man is bending over backwards trying to help...

    Good Sunday Mornin'

    A friend sent me this a couple of weeks ago. It seems to fit in with your sermon this week about ("The love of the Lord must be passed from generation to generation, and it must begin at home.") Takes a little while to load. Turn up your volume...

    Vet Costs for Judith

    A man brought his parrot to the local Vet. The Vet examined the parrot and pronounced him dead. The man screamed at him to test him more as he couldn’t possibly be dead. The Vet opened the door to another room and a large black Lab came out. The Lab walked around the parrot a couple of times...

    Pet peeve----Surveys

    You have to be more politically correct Oldtimer. The old remark of calling someone a two bit wh--e is no longer acceptable. The ‘two bit’ part will now be referred to as ‘low cost providers’ and the last offensive term will from now on be referred as ‘horizontally accessible’! :shock...

    Good Sunday Mornin!

    Shortgrass, I know very little about religion or the bible & read this thread mostly out of curiosity. I don't belong to an organized religion because I always hear people praying for everything but not stopping to be thankful for anything. Guess I have my own way. Anyway, your thoughts...

    Windbreak Question, need your help

    IL Rancher, the articles that I linked show that if the boards used in the windbreak have the proper space between them, a 10 ft high fence will protect up to a 100 foot out. The gaps are important so that a little air goes through, otherwise on a solid windbreak like a bale pile, the wind...
