Liars figure and figures lie....anyone can draw a bunch of zeros behind some numbers and do "Rainsoft Math" and prove how you can be come a millionaire either burning wood or not burning wood.

For anyone not familiar with "Rainsoft Math" all you have to do is sit through their presentation and watch the zeros appear behind the numbers they throw on the paper to show you how to fund the college education of all your kids with the money you save by using their water softener. One of the most ridiculous pitches I have ever witnessed !!!



Having retired recently, my company was charging near $100/hour for my labor....so at that rate by paying myself what my boss charged for me I'll heat with wood AND become very RICH at the same time !!!! But wait....where does that $7.00/hour OR that $100.00/hour come from that I'm gonna pay myself !!???

I think it boils down to how you wanna justify what it is that you do...Quoting Shakespeare here, "To burn, or not to burn, that is the question". All you gotta do is figure out how to lie to justify it....why just this afternoon, I cut and split wood for just under 4 hours...So with almost $400.00 in my pocket for this afternoons labor, I'm going to take the wife to a really nice restaurant this evening.... Gosh, I LOVE Rainsoft Math.

....maybe Shakespeare really intended to say: "TO BE (warm and cozy) OR NOT TO BE (warm and cozy), THAT IS THE QUESTION".....

Today's Featured Article - The Day Mom Drove the 8N - by Brian Browning. My Dad was wanting to put in a garden but couldn't operate the 8N and handle the old horse drawn plow he had found and rigged up to use with the tractor. Well, he decided to go get Mom out of the house and have her drive the tractor while he walked behind the plow. You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o ... [Read Article]
