Resolved Question: Why do farmers feel the need??

Why do farmers feel the need to drive combines and very large farm equipment on main roads for 20 miles? What do they go to? It's so annoying to be driving to work only to be stuck behind an oversized farm vehicle that you are unable to pass.My question was WHERE DO THEY GO?! Why do they need to transport such huge machinery on main roads? All of you stupid people who are responding with "Try not eating anything from a farm for a day" are not getting the point.The farmers around here are not farmers who farm food for people, but more or less for animals. It does not matter what route I take to work because they are always on all of them. more

Resolved Question: Rules of the South!?

Rules of the South A friend just moved from Southern California to North Carolina and he e-mailed this. He said they gave it to him at the state line. If you are going to live or visit in the South, you need to know these rules: 1. That farm boy you see at the gas station did MORE work before breakfast than you do all week at the gym. 2. It's called a "gravel road." No matter how slow you drive, you're going to get dust on your Navigator. Drive it or get out of the way. 3. The red dirt -- it's called clay. Red clay. If you like the color, don't wash your car for a couple weeks -- it'll be permanent. 4. We all started hunting and fishing when we were seven years old. Yeah, we saw Bambi. We got over it. 5. Go ahead and bring your $600 Orvis Fly Rod. Don't cry to us if a flathead breaks it off at the handle. We have a name for those little 13-inch trout you fish for -- bait. 6. Pull your pants up. You look like an idiot. 7. If that cell phone rings while a bunch of mallards (ducks) are making their final approach, we will shoot it (the phone). You might want to ensure it's not up to your ear at the time. 8. No, there's no "Vegetarian Special" on the menu. Order steak. Order it rare or, you can order the Chef's Salad and pick off the two pounds of ham and turkey. 9. Tea - yeah, we have tea. It comes in a glass over ice and is really, really sweet. You want it hot -- sit it in the sun. You want it unsweetened -- add a LOT of water. 10. You bring Coke into my house, it better be brown, wet, and served over ice. 11. So, you have a sixty thousand dollar car. We're real impressed. We have a quarter of a million-dollar combine (it's farm equipment) that we only use two weeks a year. 12. Let's get this straight. We have one stoplight in town. We stop when it's red. We may even stop when it's yellow. 13. We eat dinner together with our families. We pray before we eat (yeah, even breakfast). We go to church on Wednesdays and Sundays and we go to high school football games on Friday nights. We still address our seniors with "yes, sir" and "yes, ma'am," and we sometimes still take Sunday drives around town to see friends and neighbors. 14. We don't do "hurry up" well. 15. Greens - yeah, we have greens, but you don't putt on them. You boil them with salty fatback, bacon or a ham hock. 16. Yeah, we eat catfish, bass, bream (pronounced brim) and carp.

i lost a house cat who just snuck out of the house 10 days ago. he hasn't been seen since. i am wondering what happened to him as i've been looking for any sign for days now. there is a great horned owl that lives 1/2 mile from here, a large badger hole at the top of our driveway, coyotes within a mile or so of our house, barn cats including toms, and farms surrounding ours within a couple of miles with dogs, more cats and large equipment... anything could've gotten him and with the harvest season, combines and grain trucks, it's crazy to think he may still be alive- and yet i hope. can anyone tell me what the chances would be of a house cat who has never spent a night alone outside- really not even an hour ouside, to still be alive? i have had many cats in the past and know that they can be surprising animals. he was a neutered tabby male, maybe 8 lbs. and approximately 5 years old. where could he be?? do badgers eat cats? owls cats that large? coyotes? could he be hiding from toms??thanks for all the answers! i am gaining hope just reading what you've all said- except the coyote answer- but hey, that is reality. i should say that he was raised from a week old by myself on a bottle and formula, all that goes with it. no mother but myself. i'm not sure about instincts with this poor boy. i will definitely keep searching tho- and looking in all the small hiding places in our barns, etc. it's getting cold at night, down into the 20's- and i worry about every little thing, but thanks so much for all the great advice and again for the hope. please continue to reply! i am reading!!! more

Resolved Question: Is there a legal limit on how wide farm equipment can be to drive on public roads?

I met a combine this morning (pulling the grain head) on a two lane oil road and he had tires in the ditch and so did I! The equipment I drive is big, but this new stuff is huge! Our gravel roads are narrow, so if I'm driving my pickup, I usually back up to a field approach or something. I'm not complaining, (I love the country life) but everything is going to continue to get bigger. What are your thoughts?Carl, you're funny. Get up before the farmer does. Around here this time of year I think the only time a farmer gets some sleep is when the trucks and wagons are full and in the shed and it's raining. Bohemian... maybe it's different where you live, but around here, grain heads are used to harvest soybeans too. I agree with the young kids in your answer. But I am guilty too. I was hauling loads to town at 14 years old. Come to think about it, I was driving to a small town on gravel at 8 years old to buy Dad cigarettes in a stick shift pickup with a pillow and signed check. I'm dating myself here! Thanks for the answers! more

Resolved Question: Men, Is my husband being selfish?

In the last 3 years, I have sat back and watched my husband buy 2 tractors, a 660 4-wheeler, a trencher, 56 acres of land, an F-350 truck, a combine, several farm implements that I can't even name, a few trailors, and there is probably more that I can't think of right now. He always has the money for his projects. However, when there is a project I'd like to work on at home, he never has the time nor the money to do it. I've been asking him since we have been together to finish the baseboards in our home. That was 3 years ago. They haven't been touched. I work full time, and so does he. He has a part-time business and says all of this equipment he has bought can be written off. Maybe so. All I know is that in the last 3 years, we have taken the kids on one day trip to an amusement park and that was only because he had to go to that town anyway to pickup one of his "business purchases". We have been to the movies only once. Am I being selfish? more

Resolved Question: i need help re-wording an esay project for history class.....any help?

For many years, Indian nations or tribes upon losing their land either survived on the margins of white communities or moved West. Indeed, early in the nineteenth century the lands along the west bank of the Mississippi served as a sort of Indian country, where nations such as the Cherokee were sent. It soon became clear, however, that white settlers would be moving across the Mississippi River much sooner than anticipated. The reservation system emerged as the federal government’s major solution to the problem of how to make Indian land available to whites while protecting and acculturating Indians. Reservations were much smaller than the lands that Indian nations had previously controlled, in part because groups from several nations were commonly combined on the same reservation. These reservations were typically located on poor land, both because whites did not desire such land and because policy makers wanted to isolate Indians from the corrupt influence of white traders, especially those who traded in alcohol. Reservations would serve, government officials hoped and anticipated, as laboratories in which Indians could learn farming and trades under the protection of federal agents. It would prepare them for joining and blending with the American mainstream within a few generations. The Reservation System in Practice As racist as the assumption of Indian acculturation was, its proponents at least believed that Indians were as capable of learning and living as whites did. As the nineteenth century progressed, however, more and more Americans were influenced by ideas of racial hierarchy in which non-white races were said to be forever stuck in a less civilized state. Even those Indians who wished to become educated in white ways therefore found substantial barriers. Congress was often unwilling to fund reservations and to fulfill treaty obligations, and the goods and personnel assigned to reservations were often of very poor quality. Indian tribes usually lived side by side with tribes of different cultures, sometimes former enemies. Their teachers were often more interested in extracting labor from them than in teaching them, and Indians who tried to making a living as farmers commonly found that they were stuck with inferior land and equipment. Many Native Americans, furthermore, did not desire to change their way of life. By the early twentieth century, then, Indians were the most impoverished people in the United States. They had lost their political independence, and much of their culture had eroded. Indian agents tended to be authoritarian, and educators discouraged or prohibited traditional languages, rituals, and dress. more

Resolved Question: Do vegans understand that bambi's die because of their diet?

Farmers who grow crops (grains, leaves, roots, fruits, vegetables) get multiple deer tags for hunting season. Combines and various farm equipment kill animals from mice to racoons, rabbits to pheasant. The babies and eggs of these adult animals get crushed and killed. I am NOT against vegans, or their diet. You eat what you want. I realize that these creatures die to support my diet. Just please stop pretending that you are doing so much good for the environment, and for animals. Your diet supports the killing of these animals. Understand it, and deal with it. Stop lying to yourselves. You live in a modern culture of convenience. That is the only reason you can eat the way you do. It really has nothing to do with feeling bad about killing animals. Animals are killed anyway. Those who have conditions that require them to be vegan, 100 years ago, would have had a rough time finding a diet with anything close to a variety of food. What do healthy people die from? more

Resolved Question: something worth knowing? and a free cookie.?

hmm...something worth knowing? how about...within 10 to 50 years america will...how should i put this..conquer the middle east. but not by military but by economics. currently there are about 75 ethanol producing refineries being built in america. and next growing season there is projected to be more corn grown than there has been since 1946 when we were feeding europe after WWII. And corn prices are also expected to shoot up. i'm not sure but i also heard that 99% of indiana's corn is going straight to the refineries. But with this new ethanol fuel comes change. soon there will be cars mass built that run on ethanol fuel. And also since we use like 85% less crude oil in the production we might be able to produce enough crude oil that we don't have to import much if at all from the middle east. Also with the mass production of ethanol fuel and new cars are going to run on ethanol and you have to have corn to make ethanol fuel. the middle east doesn't grow enough corn for that. and all the arid desert means they don't have much more room in which to grow corn. the only major corn grower in the middle east able to meet the demands for corn production is..INDIA. Which, is currently being taken over by AMERICAN corporations. The middle east might start making thier own cars that still run on gasoline or diesel fuel but they'll be using thier own oil to run thier cars so their economies will become stagnant due to lack of exported goods and they'll have to import things like steel to make those cars. its a win win situation. and if the middle east starts using ethanol fueled cars, where do you think they're going to get that fuel from? America,India, and i currently don't know any other countries that can produce it. they'll be sending us tankers filled with crude oil and we'll be sending it back filled with ethanol fuel. And also imagine what if China starting making ethanol fueled cars? imagine how much of it they'd have to import. and they definetly can't make much of thier own because they can't even feed some of their own people. In a few years we'll be growing more corn than has ever been grown before. which means a major economy boost. with all that new corn there are going to have to be more and bigger farms to make it. more equipment to maintain and harvest it. more trains to haul it. and also where i work we make clutches for lawnmowers and other things one of them being a clutch that goes into a thing on a corn silo that shoots the corn into the hauling trains. and also i think we also make a clutch for combines. So there's going to be more work for steel companies to make railroad ties and train cars and corn silos and other equipment that needs to be made for these refineries and corn fields. and there'll also be jobs for workers for the ethanol plants. then we get to export it for a massive profit. and on top of that we'll be manufacturing our own ethanol cars. and i'm sure japan will make them too. Should we still worry about social security? also..looks like there's going to be a trans fat foods ban in new york. i think there needs to be a nation wide ban on that stuff. more

Resolved Question: Would you be prepared to stop eating fish as a voluntary response to overfishing? And if not, why not?

Scientific evidence is increasingly showing that the human taste for seafood, and the efficiency of the equipment available to fishermen, combined with age old factors such as greed and corruption has contributed in a significant if not causal way to the near destruction of fish stocks worldwide (mainstream examples include cod and tuna; it is believed that the North Sea Oyster population was wiped out through human activity before farming became the status quo). Like all matters of sustainability, the solution will lie in our ability to moderate consumption and ensure appropriate and effective management of this resource.Scientific evidence is increasingly showing that the human taste for seafood, and the efficiency of the equipment available to fishermen, combined with age old factors such as greed and corruption has contributed in a significant if not causal way to the near destruction of fish stocks worldwide (mainstream examples include cod and tuna; it is believed that the North Sea Oyster population was wiped out through human activity before farming became the status quo).
