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 - Usin Your Implements: Bucket Loader - by Curtis Von Fange. Introduction: Dad was raised during the depression years of the thirties. As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
