I kind of know what you mean except that I never feel like anybody else is any better than I am. A bit 'better off, maybe, but better, NEVER. True I know people that drive better cars or trucks, live in larger houses, etc, etc. Heck alot of them are just like me and are self employeed so I know they share the same headaches and concerns I do, and deserve everything they've worked for. Thing is regardless of where they live, or what they drive, I (BIG I) am the one they all come to see when they have a problem. That being the case I guess I ought to feel like I'm better than they are since I am their problem solver. I don't though because the way I see it, all I know how to do is to be me. If my lot in life is to always be in the middle and to help out those on top as well as those on the bottom, then so be it. In the end as long as I (BIG I AGAIN) am happy, and am able to take care of my family, then nothing else matters.
That being said, there is always something to be said about having others to talk to that share the same likes and dislikes, the same values and views about things (for the most part), etc, etc, etc. My wife and little girl always give me a hard time about talking too much, and at times I guess I do. Thing is when you work alone most of the time, like I do, when you finally do run into somebody who can talk about tractors, equipment, or anything else, besides the all mighty sports world 24/7, then it's a real treat. I've got a few friends and customers like that, but when I get home at night, this site is usually the first place I go. Although I've only met a few of the people on here, or talked to them on the phone a time or two, the one thing I know is that at the end of the day the people on here are the ones that, were I stranded on Gilligans island, or any other for that matter..LOL...are the types of people I'd want right there beside me.

Today's Featured Article - Grain Threshing in the Early 40's - by Jerry D. Coleman. How many of you can sit there and say that you have plowed with a mule? Well I would say not many, but maybe a few. This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
