Howdy folks, First, I want to apologize for my being leery of posting that prayer request. I guess at the time with everything going on I wasn't really thinkin straight. For I'm not ashamed of my faith and I know the power of prayer (have witnessed it many times over)so feeling like it was a burden to you all and worrying about topic content isn't really who I am. Now, since that's out of the way, I'll give you an update on dad. He is in Jewish hospital (yeah, I figured it would be Christ or University too). I was down to see him both yesterday and today. The surgery went great. He had 5 bypasses done, using arteries from his left arm. He was taken off the respirator last night just after I went home and is now even being fed solid foods. So praise the Lord for that. He was talking today and sitting in a chair. He also didn't look like the back side of a computer today either. Yesterday he had so many wires and tubes it was just terrible. So that's another blessing. The nurse said that by this evening (I guess that's now isn't it) he would be walked up and down the halls some to start getting him back to moving around. So, God has been very good to us and is healing him just fine. Sure, he's gonna be pretty restricted for a good little bit on what he can do (and I will crack the whip myself on that) but otherwise he is doing wonderful. He was still sleepy today but with as much stuff as they've got him on it's no surpise. I want to thank each of you from the bottom of my heart for your prayers. God knows who you are and I pray each day for Him to bless each of you ten times as much as He's blessed me. Dad had a great big smile on his face when I told him that you all were praying for him. He and I have both been helped so many times by you fine folks so your prayers mean a lot to him. Well, that's about it for now. Again, thank you. God bless. --old fashioned farmer

Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
