  1. Donald Trump never suggested that anyone should drink bleach. I saw that myself, and saw it replayed many times after the lying liberal media said that he did say that. He just commented something to the effect that maybe someday there would be a treatment that could be taken orally or injected into the body- much like chemotherapy. Chemotherapy is injecting poison into your body, in the hope that it will kill cancer cells. He never, ever, said that anybody should drink bleach, and I highly doubt that he said or did any of the other either. But like I always said when he was President, he could find a cure for cancer in his top secret basement laboratory and the democrats would still find fault with it.
  2. Thank you, I was going to post that same picture. I got an address from Mikey so I could send something since there's little chance I'll get to Iowa.
  3. Here's the girl in the hardware store in Winfall's sister helping her look for a screw.
  4. Oh my! This woman came over to ask for a ride to Gladys when I was in Winfall the other day. I told her "no, now beat it!"
  5. Here's a girl sitting on the sidewalk outside of the hardware store in Winfall while her friend is inside the hardware store in Winfall looking for a screw.

  7. Well here's Batgirl for you then.
  8. We used to keep the grain head kind of high when we were combining if we didn't want the straw, you could cover more ground quicker that way. I think our combine had a 7 foot head, and we never finished- when one field was done you moved on to the next one. But if we were going to bale the straw, then we would cut it as low as possible to get more straw. Another reason that hydraulic head was the cat's ass.
  9. What I call a drill is used to sow the grain and a combine harvests the grain.
  10. Never heard of it, I'm gonna check it out!
  11. This one has an engine on it, but I've never seen one working that had it's own engine, they all worked off the tractor's PTO. I don't know what they're going to do with this one, I just saw it and stopped to take pictures, but it does look restorable.
  12. I'm out of "Like"s...but 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
  13. Yes sir!
  14. Well worth a look and a listen- https://www.instagram.com/p/CSWwhLcgEE5/
  15. Is gearrrrhead grrrl back in yet another configuration?😲
  16. When I was just a kid, many years ago, our neighbor had an International model 76 combine and a Farmall 300 tractor, which me and my brothers thought must be the biggest tractor in the world because my daddy and grandfather had 2 Farmall C tractors. He used to combine our wheat, and most everybody else's in the area, because most of the farmers around would sow a few acres of wheat, or barley, or oats, so it wouldn't be cost effective to buy a combine to thresh 2 acres of wheat every year. So our neighbor would combine it for them, when he could get to it, because he had the only combine around. He had the kind you had to ride on and fill the bags and tie them, then dump them off the platform so they could be loaded onto a truck, or trailer, or wagon. Somebody had to ride that combine behind that tractor all day, in the dust and heat. We used to like to get to ride it- all we did was hand the man that knew what he was doing the bags, or a piece of twine that we pre-cut to tie the bags with, and we thought it was fun, because we were kids. His looked like this, but I couldn't find any pictures of the one that had the platform that you had to ride, all the pictures showed a bin. Then after my Daddy bought a 5000 Ford tractor, he bought a combine too. You didn't have to ride it because it had a bin that held 26 bushels, but where the other combine never stopped, we had to stop when the bin was full and fill bags one at a time, because everybody still wanted their wheat in sacks. This combine didn't have the canvas belt to bring the wheat up, it had an auger. But the best thing was the hydraulic grain head. You had to turn a crank on that 76 to raise or lower the grain head, but the 80 had a cylinder underneath to raise and lower it by moving a lever on the tractor. It was the cat's ass when you got into wheat that had blown down. I combined a lot of grain with that unit. It looked like this-
  17. Well, finally! I've been looking for big Mack trucks but hadn't seen any for weeks until I spotted this one Friday. I saw this Friday too. First time i've even seen a pull type combine in years, and never saw one of these before- that I remember anyway. And of course here's a girl in a car who might be sleeping... and here's a girl in a car who appears to be wide awake. Both from the interweb.
  18. Maybe in his sand box.
  19. and this is a girl on a mower-
  20. Maybe there should be a girl on a bike in the mix somewhere.
  21. Yeah Bob, I guess I have to face reality at some point. I turned 65 this spring, and the Hooter's fish sammich is more exciting than the Hooter's girls🤣. That's not to say that I don't like looking at Hooter's, or Twin Peaks either, when we go there. I always have a great time when I'm out with Zina and Vicki in sunny Florida.
