    Stop interfering with the Quality Control Department. Remember, you're not only messing with me, you're messing with Crash, too. And Crash has a BAN BUTTON, that I can't believe he hasn't used on you yet.

    Maybe if I send him some fresh batteries.

    Congrats Poco and Equss..... Couldn't have happened to a more deserving family. Lots of luck to ya.
    If by what I have learned over the years, allow me to help one person to start to prepare. If all the mistakes I have made, let me give one person the wisdom that allows them to save their life or the life of a loved one in an emergency. Then I will truly know that all the work I have done will have been worth every minute.

    There's nothing like raising your own produce, meat, and dairy!

    Of course, you will now fall under the Quality Control Department's "Farm and Business Division." Crash and I will be delighted to assist you with scheduling your weekly shipments of samples to us.
    Ken, Sorry, but as it stands right now all we have is horses. But please feel free to come down and take one for a "spin" (I have a "spinner" in mind for you, she likes men, until they saddle her up) You may want to bring some padding with you, remember all the flint? Muahahahaha!!

    Equus here by the way Ken I will make sure you ride her in soft dirt. Also I want to say thank you all for the replies. I know that I haven't been on in awhile but been pretty busy. I wasn't sure what else to add to what you all already know about me. By the way who wants to help us move next weekend? Anybody?

    I'd happily help you move.... but there's that annoying little barrier called the Atlantic. However, I'll be with you in spirit!

    are you sure you aren't talking about my wife? (just kidding )

    The best advice I can give you at this point is : thank the lord for all your blessings. Keep him in your heart and he will keep you in his.

    It's an exciting time for you guys and I know you will both do your best. It's a lot of hard work, but I'm sure you guys are up to it. Though I can't help you move, I am with you guys in spirit.

    Wishing you the best and much love. Congrats!

    Congrats on the farm. I'm sure there are a LOT of things that need to be sampled during the move. Perhaps the QC department will help you move. After all, they are you friends and here to help.

    Now that sounds very much like an appropriation of a bribe

    A bribe? By golly, I think she's right. Perhaps we should report him to the BAR or the local bar. It should be worth a round of drinks just to keep this quiet.
