Well actually that is why I was thinking of it - the local high school had such a contract, are in the process of renewing it, and it turns out they spent $25,000 on a new scoreboard be4 the new contract was signed, they will only get $38,000 over 20 years in return, and the contract got tougher, need to maintain a minumum student count, ban all references to other pop products (does this include what students wear???) etc. or they get nothing. In fact, the pop company may not bother with it at all now - the scoreboard was already put up, paid by the school board. So a lot of people are asking questions. All that was wrong with the old scoreboard were 'some lights burned out' and a lot of questions about the money being spent be4 the contract was agreed to, and why the school should be in such contracts in the first place if there is so little pay-off and shouldn't they be more involved in educating kids about the 3 R's, not pop.... Turning into quite an interesting discussion, I don't believe that pop company is making any good publisity or life-long customers 'here'. ;) I like Dr Pepper or Mt Dew, never cared for either cola. Don't care how they advertise it, I prefer my flavors, not the ad campaign. Sorry for getting so long winded & off topic. --->Paul

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
