The 'Half Century of Progress' show is going on, preceeding the Farm Progress show which is this week-tuesday, wednesday and thursday. Happens every other year when the Farm Progress show is in IL. I believe the Half Century show is in Rantoul, IL, north of Champaign about 15 miles on I-57. If you go on youtube there are a ton of videos of it. I'd like to go sometime, but work never permits. But this year I plan on going to the Farm Progress show.

I saw you headin north on I-39 between rt 64 & 72 the other day...4-5 in the afternoon. I tried yellin on ch19 but to no avail. Sharp lookin truck you have.

What about it...??

My dad and I went to see one a few years ago...2004-05ish. Pretty neat stuff. The funny/bizarre thing about those though, is the railfan nut jobs that HAVE to follow the thing the WHOLE way and stop at nothing to stay beside it if there's a road that parallels the tracks.

High commodity prices are driven mainly by speculation. Corn is pretty well tied in with oil. Look back over the past 10 years and see that the spikes in oil are closely followed by a spike in grain. Keep in mind that only a fraction of the corn crop actually makes it to store shelves, most is either used as livestock feed or fuel and the remainder is exported. But if you produced a product you'd choose to sell it to the highest bidder...I'd hope anyway. And...a pretty good portion of the starving people throughout the world will remain starving until there's a regime change in their gov't no matter the price of food...

Thought the O'Hare towing was a Chicago area thing...

Me thinks Bigen is down thataway too...wonder how he's doin...

Well, I'm with you on that one. To me, 130,000+ acres of prime farmland has more worth than Cairo (I've been watching youtube videos of it, wow what a shithole). I hope the people of MO tear the COE to shreds.

Anyone on here near Birds Point whatchamacallit...? I want some first hand eyewitness video/accounts/pictures of when they blow it up.

Ha...my dad used to have a 4-wheel drive tractor with one of those in it. That thing would scare the crap out of me when I was little.

I still say the late 90's to early 00's Macks with 6" pipes are the best sounding trucks on the road...

Soooo...half barrel party at Rowdy's house this weekend...? -
The one I've got was originally a 460hp and was turned to 525...with 6" pipes on it... But the jake is pretty obnoxious. I'm pretty happy with it so far.

Gotta get one of those smart phones so you can mix your work time in with your interweb time...multi-task. I was gonna run a load of crane mats down to Arkansas the other day but instead it was given to someone who actually had 'authori-tah' to run outta state... I would've let you buy dinner at that show-me-hooters place you always talk about.

Old lady caught you elbow deep in porn, eh? haha I see So. IL. is fixin to float down the Mississippi...anywhere near that?

Dammit, go figure. I thought you had that sold when you got your stepdeck a while back... Does your trailer guy have a website...?

'Bout the only requirements would be air-ride and decent winches/winch rail and maybe a box or two. I don't need a headboard, side kit and/or tarp(s).

Might have to go flatbed shoppin in the near future. I've been looking on truckpaper and it seems I can find a decent 45-48' by 96 wide for under $10,000. Just curious if there are any particular brands to stay away from. I realize there isn't much to one and most have probably been rode hard and put away wet. Seems this crane mat movin thing might be going full steam soon...broker was sayin he's workin on gettin a lay-down yard for them at his place. Rather than give up some trailer rental fee and pull whatever turd he's got laying around, I'd like my own so I know what it is. Any helpful advice will be appreciated. TIA.

How about some pics of 2-D's stripped

Congrats Rob. How's that saying go..."grandkids are the reward for not killing your kids when they were younger..." Somethin like that anyway...

What's it like to be in weather that requires the A/C...?? I don't remember what it's like. -
It was kind of a tongue in cheek remark about the Deere, but it would be nice to have. If we bought it we'd just keep it for however long we'd need it...clearing about 80 acres of timber, knocking down a couple buildings and so on...then re-sell it. It would be nice to get a 'neighborhood' pool thing goin...buy things split a few ways or each neighbor buy a relevant piece of equipment and just trade hours amongst the 'pool'...too many tightassed farmers though... I've got access to and experience with a good lowboy trailer so all would be well.
