Thoughts From The Middle of Nowhere

Just a Dumb Ranchers Wonderings

  • Support

    <a href="http://www.billingsgazette.net/articles/2007/04/03/news/state/90-legiconfirm.txt">This just shows</a> how <a href="http://governor.mt.gov/governor/govbio.asp">Gov. Brian Schweitzer</a> and the state's Democrats do not support the largest segment of the agricultural industry in Montana, cattle production. I guess the goal is to drive all cattle producers out of Montana if the weather doesn't do it first. For the record I am not a member…

  • More Snow

    It's been snowing all day yet again. I am really getting tired of this. The sun shone yesterday and reduced the amount of snow but I found that instead of it soaking into the ground the water is being held up in the snow. This just shows that the ground doesn't need any of this…

  • Dry Place

  • Why Do Some People Breed?

    <!– s9ymdb:47 –><img width='165' height='220' style="float: left; border: 0px; padding-left: 5px; padding-right: 5px;" src="http://www.sarpysam.com/sarpysam/uploads/noose.serendipityThumb.jpg" alt="" />Some people breed so they can <a href="http://www.mlive.com/newsflash/national/index.ssf?/base/national-83/117550075553890.xml&storylist=national">sell their kids bodies for sex</a> with perverts who are willing to buy them. This supposed mother is as low as the filth she was selling her kids to. I can't believe such…

  • Windows Security

    I see that Microsoft's new OS, Vista, has a <a href="http://australianit.news.com.au/articles/0,7204,21488395%5E15306,00.html">large security vulnerability</a> dealing with of all things the animated cursor. I thought that Vista was supposed to be so secure that we didn't have to worry about such things. <br />n<br />nIt appears that this vulnerability not only affects Vista, but it affects XP…

  • Disgust

He asked the wrong person, if he would have asked me I would have let him out. Taken 3/2/2007.</center>

  • Conduct

    I guess <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conduct_unbecoming_an_officer_and_a_gentleman">Article 133</a> of the UCMJ is <a href="http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/N/NAVAL_ACADEMY_WILD_CRUISE?SITE=MTBIL&SECTION=US&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT">no longer in effect</a>? Pretty sad day for the US Navy.<br />n<br />n<strong>Conduct is three-fourths of our life and its largest concern. Matthew Arnold</strong><br />n<br />

  • Partisan Politics Rule the Day

    <a href="http://www.billingsgazette.net/articles/2007/03/31/news/state/30-legiboone.txt" >Boone gets Senate panel endorsement</a><br />n<br />n<blockquote>The Senate State Administration Committee on Friday sent the nomination of Ingomar rancher Stan Boone to the Board of Livestock to the full Senate with a "do confirm" recommendation.<br />n<br />nThe vote was along party lines, with six Democrats in favor and five Republicans opposed.</blockquote><br />n<br />n<a…

What a mess. Taken 3/29/2006.<center><br />n<br />

  • BSE Testing

    I see Creekstone Farms Premium Beef has finally prevailed and has received permission to <a hre="http://www.forextv.com/FT/AFX/ShowStory.jsp?seq=210481">perform <acronym title="Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy">BSE</acronym> testing</a> on all the beef it slaughters if that is what they want to do. This permission is tentative since the Judge stayed his ruling until June 1st so the Government can appeal the decision.<br…
