rgoper 0 #1 March 19, 2003 Here "the natives are getting restless" i can't believe they haven't "took him out" yet, i was watching the news yesterday evening and i could see the rifle scope lenses reflecting in the foreground. this ol' boy has got some sand! he has a US flag hung upside down on the back of his John Deere, but you can barely see it in the news story url. what's the world coming to? is he a squirrel looking for a nut, or a nut looking for a squirrel? and ya'll think i'm a radical...HAH! so's not to have to post another topic, it seems "mother nature" dealt Wyatt Earp, & Doc Holiday a severe "blow" today, no pun intended a severe sandstorm blew out of the gulf over here today, and with winds of up to 50-60 mph the sandstorm is so severe you can't see your hand in front of your face, it just hit here about 45 mins. ago. "divine intervention?" i bet Earp & Holiday weren't counting on this! --Richard-- "We Will Not Be Shaken By Thugs, And Terroist" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
quade 3 #2 March 19, 2003 It's pretty obvious that the guy is mentally defective. As long as he isn't a threat to anybody else, it's far batter to just wait him out. No reason to kill him.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diverdriver 5 #3 March 19, 2003 Yah, he's gotta sleep sometime. Plus, do you think they want another Kent State? I doubt it. But wasn't this guy's protest about tobacco prices rather than the war? Wouldn't want to have to open up on him with the ALFF behind the capital building. Good thing he's not near Disney Land. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AggieDave 6 #13 March 19, 2003 Some time remind me to tell you the story of the first mass produced russian made tractor back in the 1930s. Its actually fairly comical. Hopefully they've gotten their act together since then.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flyingferret 0 #21 March 19, 2003 As for color, I like Kubota www.kubota.com So dave, I am reminding you to tell us that story! And also agree about the news register. I won't do it out of principle...might have to change in a few years, but not yet. I am still amazed at how few people see the issue with registering to view articles which are 90% associated press. -- All the flaming and trolls of wreck dot with a pretty GUI.

harryskydives 0 #23 March 19, 2003 I was listening to the radio and they said he was pissed about the government cutting tobacco substidies. I have always thought that it was rediculus that one branch of the government pays farmers to grow tabacco and another branch is sueing tabacco co's. He should grow pot, I mean corn.

SpeedRacer 1 #24 March 19, 2003 I heard somewhere that the number of smokers in the USA has dropped something like 25-30% since the '80s. So some of these tobacco farmers might wanna get a clue & try growing something else. Of course, this particular individual has a few screws loose on top of being in a waning industry.

harryskydives 0 #25 March 19, 2003 Yeah he is getting support from the buggy whip, typewriter, and belly mount reserve coalitions. Last time i checked the population in general in this country is just a little over weight. So he might try growing food. No lack of markets there.
