Dougster, here's a picture of my baseball cap with business info.

Bought this ten acres and home in 2000. I've enjoyed it ever since, but I have really enjoyed it since getting the Kubota. Wish I knew how to make a panorama...

Cali, I really didn't think too long or hard about this when I got it this morning. Maybe I shouldn't have posted it. Maybe we shouldn't have an "Open Forum". Sure didn't mean to get anyone riled.:sorry:

Got a little more done this weekend I welded in the 1"x2" "ribs" in between the "spars" in this bird. Really, I don't expect it to ever fly away. This took longer than expected, but it's done. Next step is to put some tin on it. I'll haul a load of scrap metal and aluminum to the scrap...

If you look closely at the picture, you will note that all the Marines pictured are bowing their heads. That's because they're praying. This incident took place at a recent ceremony honoring the birthday of the Corps, and it has the ACLU up in arms. "These are federal employees," says Lucius...

A 6 year old and a 4 year old are upstairs in their bedroom. 'You know what?' says the 6 year old. 'I think it's about time we started cussing.' The 4 year old nods his head in approval. The 6 year old continues, 'When we go downstairs for...

Congrats, Shinn! That's a great find. I'd love to find a 65 Chevy dump someday. Not that it matters too much about the year, but then I'd have three vehicles from that year. Again, good job!:thumb:

Stud rooster Stud Rooster A farmer went out one day and bought a brand new stud rooster for his chicken coop. The new rooster struts over to the old rooster and says, 'OK old fart, time for you to retire.' The old rooster replies, 'Come on, surely you cannot handle ALL of these...

MARRIED FOR ALL THE RIGHT REASONS The local news station was interviewing an 80-year-old lady because she had just gotten married -- for the fourth time. The interviewer asked her questions about her life, about what it felt like to be marrying again at 80, and then about her new husband's...

Doug, you sound like a good candidate to become a "damn Yankee", and move on down here to Texas. Sure, it might not be as pretty, but we sure don't put up with as much B.S. as you do up there... They might prevent you from placing a sign on your truck, but they can't tell you what to wear...

I think you are on target with that comment. Ever check Ebay? Tons of parts...mostly new. Now I'm not sure about elsewhere, but where I live, people ride them till they die, then they sit out behind the barn to rot away. Or, if they're still running, they bring way too much money on a...

Thanks, Dougster...:tiphat: :starbucks: I resemble that remark.

Doc, hand out business cards like crazy. Not just one, but three orfour to everyone that you think can come in contact with future clients. I have gotten most of my jobs this way. Word-of-mouth, coupled with a business card passed on by a satisfied customer, has proven to be the best...

Doc, My dad will retire this year, so last year I talked him into buying a Kubota B7800 and mower. It was pretty easy after he came out and used my L2800 for a few hours. He intends to pick up a few church yards to maintain in order to stay busy. We both believe that a sure invitation to...

SIGN IN A WHITING, INDIANA, STORE FRONT WINDOW "WE WOULD RATHER DO BUSINESS WITH 1000 AL-QAEDA TERRORISTS THAN WITH ONE SINGLE AMERICAN SOLDIER!" This sign was prominently displayed in the window of a business in Whiting, Indiana. You are probably outraged at the thought of such an...

Shinn, I have some extremely hard clay on my place. I have more problem with it being slick than bogging and creating ruts. Under the carport, the only problem is when I work on something that leaks any type of petroleum product. Loosens up the material...not good. That application was...

Just enough for the little bit of water we get to run off...doesn't take much here in north Texas.:letitsnow: :letitsnow: :letitsnow: It just ain't happening! Not here, anyway. Shelter is as much about shade here as it is anything else!

Green, it isn't hot when i pick it up, but I only mess with it in the summer time...okay, it's hot in that respect.:rolleyes: The loader driver smears it out really well with the bucket to break up any chunks. What chucks I do end up with that my loader won't smash, I put into a wheelbarrow...

If I could find a cheap source of regular corrugated tin, like that already on the adjoining structure, I'd use that, cause it'd tie in well with the tin already there. But around here, it's cheaper to use the thicker sheeting. At one steel building manufacturer, I can buy custom cut...

Okay, I'm glad that I'm not alone when dealing with the wife on this issue. Green, you're right on the money (literally) when you say that there is a lot of waste in the construction industry. Back last year, the wife (and I couldn't believe it) saw a big warehouse here in town that was being...
