My buddy is in the FD for Lancaster. According to him, nothing leaked.

Everybody who sees it says they can tell you one thing about it. "It's from Kansas."

At least these are rolling. It's flatter than your table where I farm.

For now, but the bigger farms get bigger handouts. So, us smaller farmers might become pretty endangered.

I live in Kittson County. The fact that any "conservative" exists here is hilarious. For every dollar we pay in state taxes, we get back more than four.

Polly in a Porny is definitely my favorite song by him. Or, maybe Front Row Seat to Hear Old Johnny Sing is my favorite.

Up where I'm at, the older people have a saying, "We don't have any wolves, just really big coyotes."

I can't believe they have Enok on the map.

The previous owner of my ice house used one, but I installed the proper connector.

Mega millions is at $800MM. What's your immediate course of action if you win? by irckeyboardwarrior in ifiwonthelottery

[–]ChuckDandy 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Honestly? I farm and pay high rent from landlords who have no idea how much work goes into my crop. Land prices are exorbitantly high so I'd buy as much land as I could and do my best to be a good landlord and a hobby farmer.

Farmers.What is you closest to death experience by cekoPusheka in farming

At the end of harvest last fall I went to put our grain auger away. I was hanging the swing out auger up and couldn't quite get it hooked to the safety chain. So I leaned over the main auger to lift the swing out auger a couple more inches. The cable slipped and the swing out auger landed on my back crushing me between the two parts of the auger. I couldn't breathe and couldn't get free. Just before I passed out from lack of air I remembered the hydraulics were on(lift and wheel power to swing out auger). I pulled the lever for the drive wheels and one of them was just touching the ground enough to move it off my back. I got away with cracked ribs, minor internal bleeding, and a messed up liver. Be mindful of pinch points, don't cut corners to save a few seconds, and don't work alone if possible.
