When I smell a steak cooking on the grill I get hungry and my mouth starts watering. Does the same thing happen to vegans when they mow their yard?

If you're referring to my post above, what part of rounding a corner to find black cows in the middle of the night at midnight did you not understand?

I had a wide variety. The first one was when I was heading to Blinn one morning during my short college career when a guy driving a 4-wheel drive Ford, with the spare tire mounted in front, pulled out of his driveway in front of me. In my little brain I thought surely he'd see me, so I pulled...

I forgot to mention it at the time I posted that, but it has well over 270,000 miles on it, which is about 100,000 miles more than I've put on any other vehicle I own. Of course in my younger years I'd wreck them long before they got to that point.

I don't find it hard to digest. I was very close to my father, who I lost in 2007. I dreamed of him often for a number of years, and still do occasionally (though there was only one where I remembered that he was gone before I woke up).

I have a 2006 Chevy, and the sending unit has been out for years. I use my trip odometer for a gas gauge. I reset it every time I fill up with gas, and them make sure to get more gas before it gets to 300 miles.

My father and I used to get a lot of entertainment when we were barbecuing and people would ask "What's that?" while pointing to half a rabbit on the pit. "House cat. You'll like it."

Back when I was doing the trail rides I've been known to start before daybreak.

. . . and fail miserably.

Speaking of ag exemption, I lost a good rent pasture because the owner found out he could get the same tax advantage by letting it go wild and designating it a wildlife habitat.

They're pretty particular about it in my county. They require a minimum of ten acres to qualify, though in some cases you can get an exemption for smaller tracts (such as if you have eight or so acres adjoining another similar or larger tract belonging to a family member and they aren't fenced...

I can't edit it, but that should be "I'm pretty sure that's not due to loss of habitat."

My location means that agricultural production has zero effect on land prices, and much of the land that is decent sized acreage (which I'd consider 10+ acres in this area) that is bought by people who have no interest in agriculture itself, they just wanted to move to the country. One result...

I got just enough to settle the dust. I expect it came sideways also, but I didn't get out of bed to check.

That shouldn't be a problem. I'm on several non-cattle related forums that have sections for members to buy from, sell to, or give away stuff to each other. They all have statements that the forum doesn't assume any responsibility, doesn't endorse anything, and members use it at their own...

Some of that cheap sausage leaves too much grease in the skillet. In the meantime a slice of it shrinks up to the size of a quarter.

I have one of the "Back Forty" calendars hanging on the bulletin board above my desk. This month's cartoon shows an old lady and her husband in a ragged old pickup. A patrolman has them pulled over, and the wife is saying "You darn tootin' I'm speeding! We got to get there before we forget...

My daughter-in-law laughs when I refer to my new truck. It's a 2006 with 270,000 miles. The old one is a 2000 model with about half that many.

When my father was at the doctor's office he raised his arm up until his elbow was higher than his shoulder. He told the doctor it hurt when he did that. The doctor's reply was "Well then don't do that."

When my cousin and his wife's first child was very small (she's about 20 now) I was over at their house for something or other. Frank was holding the baby while we were talking, and he used an adult word, as he often did. His wife jumped all over him. "Watch your language!! Damn, Frank!!"...
