Just a Dumb Ranchers Wonderings

School
In a week school will start for the kids around here and <a href="http://www.billingsgazette.com//index.php?id=1&display=rednews/2004/08/23/build/wyoming/65-bus-drivers.inc">this story</a> reminds me of one of the real important things that you don't seem to have any control over, the bus driver. My Darling wife home schools the youngest two, who start today, but the oldest gets to ride the bus…

Twist
Drinking and driving with a <a href="http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story2&u=/ap/20040819/ap_on_fe_st/drunken_buggy_accident">twist</a>. Good thing the horse isn't injured.<br />n<br />n<b>If you want to quit drinking, just look at a drunkard when you're sober. Chinese proverb</b>

Complaining
I talked about <a href="http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story2&u=/nm/odd_perks_dc">this</a> story <a href="http://www.nowherethoughts.net/sarpysam/archives/000492.html">earlier</a> since it sounded very humorous to me. As usal people are <a href="http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story2&u=/nm/20040819/od_uk_nm/oukoe_life_breasts">complaining</a> about the army doing these procedures. They say the milatary should spend money on "bullets, not boobs." If you are only talking about war I might agree but if you want to talk about…

Children
Brian Schweitzer: "I have more than I need and less than I want,"<br />nBob Brown: he has exactly 16 guns – two of them antiques.<br />n<br />n<br />n<a href="http://www.billingsgazette.com//index.php?id=1&display=rednews/2004/08/21/build/state/40-govs-guns.inc">Sounds</a> like two children, one saying they have more and better of something than the other one has. All that is really important is if they support…

Mon tana
The forgotten half. <a href="http://www.billingsgazette.com/index.php?id=2&display=rednews/2004/08/19/build/outdoors/35-montana-article.inc">This</a> is so true it isn't even funny. I don't know how many times when I was in the Navy I told people I was from Montana and got the "how mountainous and beautiful the state is." I would agree and then say I was from eastern Montana and get the…

Confusion
I completely agree and understand this.<br />n<br />n<a href="http://www.billingsgazette.com//index.php?id=1&display=rednews/2004/08/20/build/local/55-child-porn.inc">Man gets 10 years for downloading child pornography</a> <br />n<br />nWhat really confusaes me is that this man gets 10 years for downloading child pornography while <a href="http://www.billingsgazette.com/index.php?display=rednews/2004/08/17/build/wyoming/55-tent-death.inc">this</a> women only gets 2 1/2 years for killing a child and <a href="http://www.billingsgazette.com/index.php?display=rednews/2004/08/11/build/local/30-daycare-death.inc">this</a> women only gets 5 years for…

Back
Just an update. The anti-inflammatory prescription the doctor has me to reduce some of the swelling has reduced the pain enough I can actually sit and look at the computer without being in extreme pain. Hopefully the shot today will finish getting rid of the numbness and the rest of the pain. It worked well…

Pain
I have been battling my back for a little while now and this weekend I really injured it bad. Pinched nerves, ruptured disk. It is really weird, my leg is so numb that it is like walking on a wooden stump but at the same time get tremendous shooting pains down my leg that double…

Steer
All I can think about is how much <a href="http://www.billingsgazette.com//index.php?id=1&display=rednews/2004/08/17/build/local/40-red-steer-big.inc">Big Red</a> would eat and how much manure there would be to cart away. You could say this sounds like bullshit but since he is a steer that would be inappropriate. <br />n<br />nMy dad talks about when he took over the ranch from his grandpa…

Study
Now <a href="http://www.decaturdaily.com/decaturdaily/religion/040814/meet.shtml">this kind of Bible study</a> would be very interesting to attend. To bad we don't have one of <a href="http://www.hooters.com/">these</a> around here to start a bible study class.<br />n<br />n<b>Humor is the only test of gravity, and gravity of humor; for a subject which will not bear raillery is suspicious, and a jest…
