John in SD

[Big Muddy rancher]

We haven't heard from him in quite a while.

Has anybody? Does anybody know him?

Is he doing OK?

 

[Aaron]

He spends a fair amount of time on CT, offering well-grounded advice that is greatly appreciated and needed there.

Thanks, Glad to hear he's still around.

Is it cold up at Stratton? Did you make agribition?

 

[Aaron]

Neighbor mentions Agribition each year, doesn't phase me. Been there once 10 years ago and satisfied my curiosity. Much rather be at home getting projects around here accomplished. Can't justify the 8 hour drive in my mind.

Been a phenomenal winter so far (if you can even call it that). Barely 3 inches on the ground and the heat wave is coming this week. We were a foot and half deep and continual -30 this time last year.

Gee BMR, it's nice to be missed 8)

Yes, I've been around CT, NAT, and the Bash. I don't understand computers well at all. Ranchers had become extremely difficult to navigate with my old Windows XP on dialup. Now I have a new Windows 7 that needs an "A-daptor Kit" to work with dialup.

Sites seem to load in even slower than before, but work much better when I'm in, if that makes sense :???: Someday .... I might have to upgrade to DSL :roll:

Anyway, it's good to be back, and nice to know someone noticed I was MIA

Good to hear from you. I hear you about poor internet service, I didn't realize that dialup still worked. :shock:
Hope you are wintering well.

 

[cccattleco]

I'm another one that is glad you are back and things are okay. Hasn't this been some winter???
It's really not painful to change from dial-up. Doesn't hurt a bit. Honestly.

 

[John SD]

I know I should switch from dialup, but I'm just too cheap for the extra $20/month or whatever it is :mrgreen:

Worst thing about dialup is it doesn't deal with pictures well or videos at all. So I just skip over that stuff :lol:

I see Jinglebob fairly regularly at local church related activites. This new computer works well with his blog, except for the pictures of course

Hopefully this site will work better than ever once Macon gets the bugs worked out. So far I like it. The old site had become almost impossible for me to navigate, but that might have been because of Windows XP. This outfit is Windows 7 and I've already encountered one site encouraging me to upgrade
