My wife has developed a fascination with old farm tractors & NASCAR. This Week in Agribusiness on Saturday morning and racing on Saturday night or Sunday afternoon.
Absolutely no interest in construction equipment, which I just happen to have a bunch of sitting idle at shop 1 & 2 and the annexes.
I should see if I can talk Dakkie into escorting her to the Brickyard 400 in July. There's no way I can get away, the last time I talked about leaving town a couple, three of my oldsters about stroked out.
It's weird, she really took to this NASCAR stuff. Personally, I can take it or leave it. One of these days I wouldn't be surprised if she comes home with a Jimmie Johnson tattoo on her tit.
No but she's mighty unhappy with my "farmer's tan" from working in the sun all day in a T-shirt & jeans.
Edit: Shirtless & shorts doesn't lend itself real well to contracting. Hell, come to think of it, neither does this effed-up economy. I'm on track to be a quarter mil underwater this year. I figure it's costing me about $50 everytime I turn the key in my truck, $500 if I'm going to a job. I should retire, but you might as well pull the sheet over my head when that happens.
