Over on another board (sorry Kim) a poster commented on a new Country Music Video which showed a combine in a field, to which another poster asked, what was a combine doing in a field of green corn lol. It caused me to rant n rave a lil and I couldnt resist posting it here also. I always get a kick out of phonys and the Hollwood or Yuppie (including many new age so called "Country" performers) crowds who want to pretend to be country folk at various occassions. For example, one can easily spot the Realtors or Politicians at our local county fair, they are the ones that show up wearing "brand new" denims or have a piece of straw in their mouth. You ever see those pickup truck commercials where someone is ALWAYS throwing a few bales of hay or straw into the back lol. Or the Yuppie who drives into the local Co Op in his brand new Diesel Dually $50, 000 truck to get a bale of straw for his kids dog house and he has towells or blankets in the bed so he dont scratch his shiny new truck. Rememebr when regular folk or middle class or low income persons went on Trail Rides?? When you go to the local State Park horse camp nowadays, they wont let you in the gate UNLESS you have a Diesel Dually all wheel drive truck and about a $30,000 aluminum horse trailer. If a local young redneck showed up in a rusty old Ford and a 2 horse bumper hitch trailer the rich snobs would insist he be thrown out lol. Remember when we as kids got a cane pole, dug our own worms and went fishing?? Nowadays its the Diesel Dually truck pulling a $30,000 Ranger Bass Boat and a tackle box packed with expensive lures ya gotta have to fish. Oh well, thats progress I reckon, I just never had to pay for those things to have fun or feel good about myself or impress the neighbors I guess. HOWEVER its good for the economy cuz if people were like me the Country would surely go broke. Ol John T (Old fashioned conservative fuddy duddy)

Women and Tractors - Tractor Engine Repair - by Teri Burkholder. One of the great things about working on a tractor engine with your other half is that you know what he is thinking of at all times and can anticipate his every move and his next thought of what he will do. With Ben, anyway, I can tell! He'll be busy working and I’m handing him tools and he says, "give me that..." and I’ve already got it in his hand or "hand me that....."and I’ve got the portable light right where he needed it placed to see. "Run in the house and get me a...."as I open th
