    Made a 4 yr olds day today and mine too!

    Return to the rental rant...

    I know what you are saying. I have four of them now for about ten years. Three are never any problem but number four is , well it attracts the deadbeats and freeloaders like moths to a porchlight. Funny, the flatscreen TV seems to be a common thread among the posts and, yes , they have the...

    I can help with this one. This was E Rowe Foundry in Matinsville Ill. My Farmall wheel weights on my M are stamped with the same info. A trucking outfit I worked for in the 70s used to haul out of there and I think they cast for several different companies. I had the pleasure of meeting the...

These were two brothers who resembled each other tremendously. They were known to be pretty rough too...

    Year you started driving a tractor for real

    Dad put me on the JD B when I was 8 to haul firewood out of the woods. I got my first farmhand job at 13 driving a JD 60 pulling a disc. When I was 11 my Grandpa taught me how to drive his 1/2 Chevy and we fetched a load of coal. Funny, once I learned how to drive (after a few minutes) we headed...

    marvel mystery oil

    I use it in everything I own. My S-10 has 256,000 and when I changed plugs they were clean. I put it in the crankcase and add to gas. Lately I've been running a small amount with my chainsaws and they seem to come out of summer vacation sooner. Google Marvel Mystery Oil and read some of the...

    Falling Acorn Season

    We've Oak and Hickory and they are just lousy with nuts. The kids are avoiding the swing set as hickory nuts are dropping like bombs and the ones hitting the barn sound like a small war. The dang squirrels are so fat they can hardly run. Ken
