In Reply to: Can Old Tractors Grin? posted by Allan In NE on August 17, 2009 at 04:37:03:
Allan: I think you saw that grin in the mirror. I find tractor expressions are much like a hog. I had a neighbor, his sow kept getting out of pasture. He couldn't find the break in the fence. Finally he discovered an old log he place in a ditch to block it from animal use under fence 25 years earlier had become hollow and the sow was walking through the hollow log.
He took the tractor, pulled the log out in middle of pasture, and found another way to block the ditch. He said, "You should have seen the stupid look on the sow's face when she walked through the log, only to discover she was still in the pasture."
Only time I've ever seen a hint of expression on a hog's face, is one time I had an electric fence around some young guilts and a boar. Boar was trying to get this young guilt away from back on to the fence and about 2' from it. Of course she was ready and nothing was going to move her. Finally the boar in despiration decided it had to be done. He mounted and got nicely about his business, when his posterior touched the electric fence. I tell you, I never saw a young guilt move so fast, she pulled out, almost left him standing on his hind legs. There might have been a hint of expression, definitely lots of squeal.
