Sresites

1: Still have my dad’s bought new 656 utility, still in the family. 2: Wanted a 1974 Oliver 1855. Experienced it and loved it. Another family member has it now. 3: Looked for a ‘97 Case IH 5250. Found it and no regrets. Couldn’t be happier.

I got sidetracked this morning and completely forgot about this auction near me. A 7250 went for $16,000. Gosh, I can hate myself at times. https://mulrooneyauction.hibid.com/lot/95855665/case-ih-7250-tractor-s-n-jj40062395?cpage=2

And now it’s going to be 112 degrees on Saturday. I’m glad i don’t detassel corn anymore. I remember how hot it was in the Iowa corn fields.

I was in this one some five miles away on a cliff in a Navy bunker style building looking for submarines. It tore the rooms up. I was lead communications petty office on watch for the west coast to Alaska. All I could do at the moment was jump on the teletype and send out ‘Arnold, you got the con, earthquake’. And then lost all communications. Not very official but I got my message across. Our numbers were actually 7.2.

I road this one out back when. A real ground shaker like standing on a board on a rolling log. Was about 50 miles away

Just road out a 4.8 magnitude earthquake maybe 25 miles away.

And for what reason? Am I cutting in front of you in the lunch line at school? So many fly by me at 80-85 mph only to be a pr($& c about me lane splitting. Hypocrites the way I see it.

I’ll never be able to afford that. But that would sure be an experience. I’ve made my commute faster in California with motorcycle and lane splitting. Almost 40 years of doing so. This lady on YouTube shows her techniques that I perform by as well.

What is the force needed to pull 16,000 lbs of free wheeling load up a trailers 12 degree incline. I look at the formulas online and go ‘Huh?. Thanks.

Was working on my tractor in the front yard Wednesday when I heard something larger than an M80 go off. Next thing I know a neighbor is running up to me saying my backyard is on fire. The city will not clean this area up and it’s now turning into a target for the 4th Of July hooligans. Not more than a 100 feet from my house. It’s real dry here.
