It simply is a sign of shallow people that are trying to impress other shallow royality. I'm way to red neck for that one.

A good friend paid $86.00 per plate for their daughters wedding plus the motel, and on and on etc......he impressed us all. While bragging, he forgot to mention that he has taken over $581,000.00 in farm subcities, and his wife about the same ammount, so he could afford it. By the time us buddies got done with him, he said he would never tell another sole after that spanking we gave him.

We usually aren't that hard on a buddy, but he had just ranted about a neighbor that was on welfare. The neighbor has been diabetic since early childhood, going blind, many health issues, and can't buy health insurance--well you all know someone that never gets a break in life......

Funerals fall into the same pot / toilet. Ya think there are some marketing mind games involved? The last time you can get dad the best.....When you look at caskets, what price range is the very first one you see????? You know, the one with a soft pink light shinning down on it....

My dad passed in 96, and mom was beside herself with decisions and cost. I told her to take the differance between low, and what she thought ----OTHERS--would expect, and slip it inside a storm door, at x-mas. I told her dad would be happy with real cheap, and then helping out a poor family.

The funeral director usualy ate alot of meals at the golf course / country club. And this way a large poor family ate good for a few months, and had a warmer house thanks to mom. I'm very proud to say, that was ....MY... mom, and she started a tradition in our family every since. Our family was blessed to understand the real meaning of x-mas.

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 ... [Read Article]
