  • Sleep

    Sleep, what a precious commodity that can be at times. I always have trouble sleeping when it comes to certain things around the ranch here. Branding and shipping being the two things that regularly cause me sleep problems. Hell, everything can be going good and I still can't sleep because of the added stress of…

  • Early

    It seems a little early to me. I had to put my long underwear on yesterday it was so cold and i was damn glad I did. I would have froze to death if I hadn't. Isn't it a little early yet for such a thing in this area? Seems like it to me. It's…

  • Scam

    To start with i wish to apologize for the website problems that I experienced Sunday through Monday. They were not of my making and were a problem my hosting service, <a href="http://ipowerweb.com/">Ipowerweb</a>, knew about but didn't feel like fixing until a time of their choosing. <a href="http://ipowerweb.com/">Ipowerweb</a> has been a pretty good hosting provider but…

  • Abrupt Change

    You want to talk about an abrupt change in the weather, that is sure what has happened around here. No rain yet, damn the bad luck, but cooler weather abounds. Last week through Sunday it was low to upper 90's every day and since Monday I don't think it has gotten above 90. It's so…

  • Sad Day

    It's a pretty sad day when you are told a course of action in a legal battle, non criminal, you are involved in is going to cost $2000 and think to yourself, "what's $2000 more dollars at this point, it doesn't matter. I wonder where the people suing me are getting the money to pay…

    <a href="http://nowherethoughts.net/sarpysam/archives/2785-Yet-Again.html">The Dispatcher</a> had a conversation the other day during the fire that I wanted to share with you. She was calling BIA fire control when she had the conversation.<br />n<br />nPhone ringing and is then picked up, voice on other end: Uhhhh?<br />n<br />nTD (The Dispatcher): Hello?<br />n<br />nVoice: Uhhh?<br />n<br />nTD: Is this…

  • Helping Hand

    I have a little announcement to make. A frequent commenter here, Bill, approached me about buying some heifer calves from me to give to the <a href="http://nowherethoughts.net/sarpysam/archives/2727-Condemnation.html">Morgans and Karen who had there cattle slaughtered due to brucellosis</a>. We have come to an agreement and this will be happening. Bill is originally from this area and…
