UP Oliver said: (quoted from post at 00:28:08 07/21/14) Nice of you to at least give the neighbor a chance or two or more. I have two hound dogs that are never loose, but twice the one dog broke loose off the harness I use to walk him. The metal ring just broke in half. It would really be a sad situation if someone decided to shoot him when he was loose the first time. I don't see him causing any trouble if he was loose but I believe I should have him under control. All I'm saying is it would be nice if more owners gave the animal a chance like you did.
I've tried being nice in the past. For the most part, it just doesn't work. For some reason people think their dogs and cats are people or even higher on the evolutionary ladder. If Rex comes over and craps in my garage, pees on my gloves and tears my wifes laundry off the line, I'm supposed to laugh it off as a dog being a dog. When Rex is running my sheep or cattle I'm supposed to realize he just wants to play. When some townie drops of 2 very pregnant cats outside my barn I'm supposed to feed and care for them and "give them a nice home in the country". Horse puckey. You want dogs and cats, you take care of them, keep them in your own yard, erect fences to do so at your cost if you have to and act responsibly if they do get out. Other than that, it's a crap shoot on what treatment your dog of cat will get. You made the choice to own them, now take responsibility for them. I don't want to have to shoot anyones pet, but some people just shouldn't be allowed to own one in the first place.

Today's Featured Article - Oil Bath Air Filters - by Chris Pratt. Some of us grew up thinking that an air filter was a paper thing that allowed air to pass while trapping dirt particles of a particles of a certain size. What a surprise to open up your first old tractor's air filter case and find a can that appears to be filled with the scrap metal swept from around a machine shop metal lathe. To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
