Friday I called the electric company to change the account from my wife's name to mine (figured it was time after 17 years, no sense rushing into things) to make things easer for me now (she is in KY taking care of her mother). So I call the electric company and tell them what I want to do and why, We can do that for you she said. Ok I will need your full name date of birth and your SS number, Why? To make sure you don't have an outstanding balance due us from an old account and to see if we need a security deposit or not. Well OK, And I gave her the information and puts my on hold for 5 min's. She comes back on the line and says we cant do this you already have 2 accounts as of right now under your SS number. WHAT! You have 2 accounts that you have had sense 1971 and the other is from 2004 and we cant start a 3rd one. WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? In 1971 I was in the 5th grade! OH How were you paying your bill then? OK something is really screwed up here but GOOD. What are the address on these accounts? She tells me and I start laughing and she wants to know what's so funny? That is my mom and dads house and barn. How did you get my SS number on those accounts in 1971? Well that's the SS number that was given to us then and is still on them now so we cant start a 3rd one. Ok let me call my parents and have them call you to get this straiten out. Called mom and told her what was going on and she got a laugh about it till she figured out I was serious about it. Well she called the electric company and got it straiten out and called to tell me so.
Well today I went up to see them and to find out what the deal was. Well it seams that in 1968 mom and dad got there SS numbers as well as me and my sisters SS numbers all at the same time. In 1971 they bought some ground and built a new house on it, I kind of remembered that this was about the time dad started to ware glasses. Well I guess they asked for his SS number to set the account up and he grabbed my SS card thinking it was his and gave them my number by mistake. Thinking back on it now it makes sense, How else could an 18 year old go to the bank and get several $15000 loan to buy machinery at a sale to use and sell. God I wonder how many times dad did that over the years till I turned 16 and needed my SS card to get my drivers license and kept it after that? Oh as of Monday the bill will be in my name at home now. Bandit

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
