I see these celebraties on TV all the time begging for a dollar here and a dollar theree to feed the "poor" kids for just $9 a year. I often wonder how many of the kids could be fed and for how long, using just the money spent paying the celebraty and just in general making the commercial.

What gets me this time is that I have to ask myself what have the Hatians ever done for us? Personally I've been through two house fires in my life, and lost everything I owned in the second one. Where was the government or Hati's government when I needed help. Don't get me wrong I feel sorry for those folks but it kills me to see our even a penny of our tax money being spent on another country when every penny available is needed right here at home.

To make matters worse I look at sites like Government Liquidation.com and see all of the "surplus" tents just sitting around waiting to get bought for pennies on the dollar. If we, as a country are going to help then instead of wasting millions of dollars on new equipment, etc, why not take some of those off the auction block and send them down for the people to use for shelter? I guess to our government waste makes alot of sense, so to add even more on top of what's already being wasted just makes even more sense, especially when you can say it was for humanitarian reasons.......

Today's Featured Article - Field Modifications (Sins of the Farmer) - by Staff. Picture a new Chevrolet driving down the street without it's grill, right fender and trunk lid. Imagine a crude hole made in the hood to accommodate a new taller air cleaner, the fender wells cut away to make way for larger tires, and half of a sliding glass door used to replace the windshield. Top that off with an old set of '36 Ford headlight shells bolted to the hood. Pretty unlikely for a car... but for a tractor, this is pretty normal. It seems that more often than not they a ...
