  1. According to the data from 2007 published by the USDA, 45.9% of the beef supply came from operations with fewer than 100 cows. 5.3% of operations with 1 to 49 head and 24.1% of operations with 50-100 head were operated as a primary source of income. 71.9% of all operations were operated as supplemental income.
  2. A good sleeping pad with a high R value is probably more important than the bag in that situation.
  3. Yeah, no. Most cow calf operations are pretty small and don't contribute a significant amount of income to the owners. In 2017, 54% of farms with beef cows had fewer than 20 cows. Those folks are generally barely making a profit the few years they do pull a profit.
  4. Decided to see if my now seven year old daughter would like the first one today. She did, and I didn't make it ten minutes before things started getting dusty.
  5. My Ontario Rat I in D2 has been pretty solid, but the scales leave something to be desired.
  6. Solid first episode. It's a crying shame that he fired off three shots from that Colt dragoon and then swam a river without likely having a good chance to clean it. That pretty much ruins that gun. Gotta laugh at how he is crack shot at swift draw and from a galloping horse despite probably never having a chance to practice. And also the unnecessary rocks in the chinking in the slave cabin. Artistic liberties I guess, but come on. Still a good show so far and hopefully they don't amp up the ridiculousness.
  7. We should have standard time in the summer and daylight savings time in the winter.
  8. If your gonna tour Africa and spend some time in Kenya, you should take up a tour of Kibera. It's the largest slum in the continent. You really can't get a sense of Africa without seeing what makes it Africa.
  9. The modern chef's knife is pretty much the same as the knives that were carried by folks on the frontier back in the colonial days. If it worked for them, I don't see why it wouldn't work now.
  10. Good luck this morning, gentlemen. I have a soccer game to coach, so I will have to wait until this evening to sit in my Suegro's blind with my sxs 12 gauge muzzleloader loaded with buckshot in the left and a .690 (495 grains) round ball in the right.
  11. If you make it to Senegal, you should check out the village of Kayar. It's just up the coast North of Dakar. It's a fishing village full of brightly painted boats that they push out every morning to fish in. Something you won't likely see I'm the rest of the continent. I think they have a hotel or two there. It is worth the trip if you hit up Dakar. There were a few backpackers staying there when I was there and surfing, but this was back in 2006.
  12. The Benchmade 710 was the best EDC knife u ever had, but I lost it years ago. Anybody know of a similar knife that doesn't break the bank? The closest I've found is the Benchmade Crooked River, but I'd like to find something cheaper.
  13. Speaking of, does anybody know of a cheap one that is single edged? Because I could use one.
  14. OTF's are handy if you work a job where you have to cut up boxes or shrink wrap or something like that one handed. You can open and close it easily without risking closing it on your hand
  15. So you want to solidify a practice that allows racist sheriffs to steal from minorities? Quite the critical thinking skills you've got there!
  16. The youngest is sick today and I have to stay home with him. Guess I can go fix this today.
