The truth about North Dakota

Yes, Chickens!!

Thought everyone knew about the chicken mines of North Dakota

*tried to find video but couldnt so text of the episode will have to do

Good gawd Y'all...(J B)

THAT'S funny....

C U N May...

I once worked in a "chicken mine" during a day or two of my mis-spent yoot.
Big Jim's family owned an egg ranch when we were in HS. (in the WAY long ago...the 70's)
His Mom hired a bunch of us high school boys to empty all the chickens (in the tens of thousands) out of the laying house, so they could take a one way ride to the Campbells soup factory.

Two things that type of activity will do for a young feller...

1. It'll put some shoulders on ya...carrying three chickens by the feet in each hand for about 100 yds, then handing them up to the loader on the semi trailer.

2. It'll put a stink on ya that's not soon to be forgot...My mother got the good end of that deal by driving a couple of us over there early in the morning.
The next door neighbor lady was tagged for the return trip...

I think summer arrives here between 1 pm on July 3rd and ends at 5 pm July 4th.

Yep, we're all over the news of late...for better or worse.

BTW, I think I saw your VX at the gun show yesterday...

Then saw a 99 Astral in W Fgo at a repair shop on Main Av on the way to the range.

Two VX's in one day, in Fgo, is pretty unusual by anyone's measure...

LDub...scary Karma. Not only did you see me at the gun show....nice place to shoot isn't it? But I was chatting with a guy at Toppers car show who worked at OK tire and said he knew you. His GF, lets take a minute to remeber our sister VX owners, had bought an Astrel and had her mother run it out of oil and blow the engine. So it was in for a heart transplant and will be yet another to our growing fleet of ND Vxers....hmmm....Fargo rally in our future???

Too funny...I know her, AND... I once worked at OK tire.

I LVE being from Fargo...

A Fargo international meet (pretty sure I can get Kenny & Donna to make the trek from Winnepeg) would be great sometime this summer...

It only floods where everybody lives, along the east border...the rest of the state is nice and dry (well, except Devils Lake anyway), but nobody lives there.

As I look at the piles of snow STILL melting in my yard, I have to remind myself that as "bad" as the winter is here, it is worse in ND. Their lack of trees to slow down the wind is a serious handicap in my book...

I don't like the thick stuff - it doesn't get in under your fingernail properly.
