Just want to give you old timers something to think about here...
I'm always seeing these geezer posts about today's kids and how they don't know what real work is and blah blah blah....
Now, I know there are people out there who think they deserve to get the good life just for breathing. I find them irritating too, how can anyone who works and pays taxes not? But you're gonna tell me in the olden days there weren't any people leaning on a shovel or sitting under a shade tree the instant the boss wasn't watching? I don't believe it, I think you guys either have selective memory or are BSing us. Every generation seems to think there's something horribly wrong with the next.
Some of these people you talk about who "work at a desk" are designing and building machines that can replace the labor of 100 of you hard working old timers.
Because of us lazy desk working youngsters, we now have this thing called the Internet. Now, when your tractor breaks down you can go to sites like this one and quickly find out not only the best way to fix it, but what parts to order and where to get them at the best price AND have them delivered to your door. I could go on for pages with examples but you get my point?
And btw I am one of these lazy desk job computer programmers. No, I don't wear my back out typing but you sit at a desk and type code for 8-12 hours a day and tell me you don't get tired of it. I'm not doing this for my health, I'm doing it because it pays a heck of a lot better than working a shovel or a pitchfork.
Anyway, not mad or trying to upset anyone or anything. Hope I didn't... but you old guys need a swift kick in the butt sometimes just like us youngsters :D

Today's Featured Article - New Life for an Old Allis - by Tyler Woods. My friend Jon, has an old '39 Allis Chalmers B. He thought it a marginal tractor that had long since served its time. She smoked terribly and never had much power but he couldn't afford another so he was limping along with what he had. Jon's Allis has a small front loader and though it doesn't carry much, it serves his needs. It was the hard starting and low power that made him think it was time to replace the old girl. Jon called me to help him discover why his tractor wouldn't start
