Hev, I had a buddy who had three traction engines in his back yard.
He sold one before he died, I think it was a Nichols and Shepard (a BIG Mother) and there's still a case and I'm not sure what the other one is.
We use to take it to Billy Creek village and run them, now there just sitting,,rusting away :cry: :cry: they wont sell them and I can't seem to get his daughter to at least greese them and move them aroud a little!,,,,,Boy ,,did she ever have some BIG tits too!!!! WOW :shock:

Hev, I can't believe I forgot to mention the whistles!!

We got there a little after 9 AM, and somewhere near 10, over the P.A. system, they played the National Anthem. Everybody stopped, guys had their hats off. Well, I wasn't forewarned about this, but as soon as the Anthem ended, from one end of the show to the other in all directions, steam whistles started shrieking and hooting. Must have went on for near 20 seconds. Man, I got a sh*t-eating grin on my face... it was freakin' AWESOME, and cool beyond all recognition!! Alone worth the price of admission!

Hev, at work, I gotta pick my year's vacations in February. G*ddamn right I'm gonna be looking for the dates of the 59th Annual Threshermen's Reunion before I pencil them in!

Theres nothing better then sippin' on a cold beer and enjoying you two's pictures and tales!!! Me and the boy would surely make the 59th with ya'll next year, but unfortunately Uncle Sam has other plans for me.
The least I can do is buy a round, who's in?

Hev, That Farmall with the HD engine is awesome!!!! :D :D

Hev and Pete, simply the best. I'm thinking tractor nuts are worse than train nuts.

If you think Farsi is hard, try English.

Postby webenda » Wed Aug 23, 2006 12:26 pm

I recently tried to communicate with San in Farsi. Made a few mistakes. :( English is not any easier. :?

Examples:

1) The bandage was wound around the wound.

2) The farm was used to produce produce.

3) The dump was so full that it had to refuse more refuse.

4) We must polish the Polish furniture.

5) He could lead if he would get the lead out.

6) The soldier decided to desert his dessert in the desert.

7) Since there is no time like the present, he thought it was time to present the present .

8) A bass was painted on the head of the bass drum.

9) When shot at, the dove dove into the bushes.

10) I did not object to the object.

11) The insurance was invalid for the invalid.

12) There was a row among the oarsmen about how to row.

13) They were too close to the door to close it.

14) The buck does funny things when the does are present.

15) A seamstress and a sewer fell down into a sewer line.

16) To help with planting, the farmer taught his sow to sow.

17) The wind was too strong to wind the sail.

18) Upon seeing the tear in the painting I shed a tear.

19) I had to subject the subject to a series of tests.

20) How can I intimate this to my most intimate friend?


PS. - Why doesn't "Buick" rhyme with "quick"
PPS. - Some of my numbers are misread by the code in this forum. See the smiley faces in 8 and 18? It is a wonder we communicate as well as we do.

Wayne, I remember this type of thing from high school when I was a freshman in 1948. Loved it then, love it now. :) :)
