Hey, Old Cane. Guess you can finally start working on your second hundred posts now. We were all pulling for you. Probably never would have made it, though, if Graybeard hadn't fixed the "Visitor" thing. Hear tell the second hundred's always easier than the first.

Enough congrats and I'll get that 250. Only two bullets now, better make 'em count.

Old Cane · « **Reply #6 on:** January 24, 2003, 05:32:11 PM »

I'm getting closer to 250.

Bet you also go through a lot of "Post-It" notes. Sure you aren't a Postman? A Post hole digger? Bet you grew up drinking Postum. Probably got all your land posted. Post entries every day in your ledger, don't you. Sleep in a 4-poster bed? Collect wanted posters? Suffer from post op complications?

Gongrats anyway.

No to all the above.

Gotta go, time for the Post Toasties.

Good thread. Everybody gets more posts. If I get enough I need to fence off another pasture.

:-) Old Cane, I wish yuh would'nt even joke about building fence. That has to be in the top 3 most hated things I've ever had to do.

Old Cane · « **Reply #12 on:** January 25, 2003, 09:41:12 AM »

I know. My appologies. My top 3 are hauling hay, rehearsing and building fence.

Last time my wife and I did some fencing, we did 2 1/2 acres in 3 hours. Got some of that 1.5 inch tape, a battery powered charger and posts the you just step on to insert. They are plastic and about 1 inch square and have slots for the tape to sit in. Drove t-post for the corners and put insulaters on them, it's low tension tape. Easiest thing we've ever done. The fence has been running the same 4 D cell batteries since September. She wanted the wide tape but after seeing it I have her convinced the half inch is plenty and will catch less wind. It hasn't come down or loose or anything but there is a lot of movement when the wind blows. Plus the wide stuff is more than double in price.

Sticking my nose everywhere has started to pay off. This makes 250. I'm ready for my new title.

It's becoming obvious I created a monster by recognizing your 100th.

DB Leath · « **Reply #15 on:** February 02, 2003, 04:12:18 AM »

Yes you did Camp.

Oh buy the way for some of us that have made a living at building fences this is a funny thing to watch.....
I mostly made pipe fence...I know what is he thinking Texas Summer heat, no shade, no breeze, welding all day...not very bright am I?

ButlerFord45 · « **Reply #16 on:** February 02, 2003, 06:07:12 AM »

:-D Cap'n, I don't think you CREATED the monster, but you may have left the gate open!!

Old Cane · « **Reply #17 on:** February 03, 2003, 02:06:59 AM »

Don't worry. The monster has been fed well for years. I'm still just a growing boy. To bad it's all horizontal now.
