Way back when when I started my first job at the Co-op, this stuff was on the shelf. My boss at the time explained to me that yes, it would either cure or kill. AND they had a lot of long distance truckers would come in to buy it and soak their toothpicks in it. Cheaper than bennys and arguably...

All good replies! Thanks guys! Before I go, I will share one guys approach on shrink. We all understand shrink, what is normal what is excessive but some of us (me), have to methodically go through the process in our minds each time to understand it. I watched this guy for years and I am...

I have been in connected to cows for a long long, long time in one form or another, either owning them or doing business with those that own them. In all those years, the prevailing coffee shop banter has been how we are all losing our shirts. I don’t believe that. My buddy, who doesn’t own a...

The Homecoming. Always takes me back to the woodshed as a kid and gramma making my breakfast on the woodstove. Thanks Tom.

Free trip to the ER?? Not trying to tell you how to run yer business but I think your leaving money on the table. I might suggest, um, $0.50 per loaded mile?

So, with the arrival of the last calf safe and sound down by the crick, one more calving season draws to a close. As I was stuffing my raunchy, vile, stinking, stiff, putrid Carhart calving overalls, that for some reason I never get washed until calving is done, into the Maytag, I had a brief...

I think I know that rancher....

Thirty in the hole here last night. I was in on Jasper Ave in Edmonton on Friday and it was so cold there the lawyers were out walking with their hands in their OWN pockets.

So......was yer birthday sat or tues?

My Uncle Harry's wisdom: For every calf shipped off the place spread a bag of phos fertilizer.

How do you feel about Silverados?

Painful to listen to this. But I do. One of his best.

I guess I'm dating myself, but I barely remember reading about the drug just about the time it was pulled. Anybody remember using it? Claims? Comparable products offered when banned?
