Repeated inquisition of The collector by the non-collector shall be punishable by above mentioned hand operated implements decreasing in size based on frequency of Inquisition and patience level of the collector. As a reflection of fairness of The collector, at no point shall the implement be smaller than standard kitchen flatware. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Greentored 3,216 #30 Posted November 5, 2020 Lets not forget "high crimes against the community" and penalties to be imposed. example 1- counting incomplete and/or parts tractors as part of the herd. Any member found to be committing high crimes against the community is subject to a twenty(20) dollar fine, to be removed directly from tractor funds and deposited into spouse's shoe funds. Checks and balances: 'Tractor and spouse shoe' inventory shall remain in balance, or favor tractor inventory. Any member found to have a decreasing tractor inventory shall be investigated and photographs taken as evidence. In the event a member spouse has an excessive/out of balance shoe inventory, evidence photos shall be posted, and violator shall be subject to public ridicule by members in good standing. There is no time limit on public ridicule. 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd like to question the membership to see if flexibility could be allowed such as a shoe being defined as a brake shoe or plow shoe for the spouses tractor? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Best not let @c-series don see that one! I'll amend Line ups are encouraged but are mandatory. In the presence of SWMBO is is acceptable and encouraged to give her a fiver and tell her to go have fun with the girls. Number one, two, three etc sons/daughters are encouraged to participate in said line ups as protection from flying objects in the event a Lincoln was not enough and she returned early.

It would seem that items 8 and 11 are in direct conflict with each other. It's great to have loop holes. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep yep yep yep yep. I wasn't catching on there at first. I see what we did there. @WHX24 Jim I think we may have to put in for a title change here. could be very risky having ourselves associated with that other brand that's usually yellow and white 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AHS 1,443 #48 Posted November 5, 2020 @WHX24 I like #1. If you have made more money selling the WHs (does that make me a bad person?), than you have in your garage. Let me explain 2 WHs sold equals $1500 in your pocket! I have 5 WHs equals about $600 spent 1500 - 600 = $900 you have left to go and buy more WHs!! That’s my way of looking at it.😀👍 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I get it now ... hey I'm a little slow...ok I'm alot slow. Never claimed to be the sharpest knife in the drawer. It appears EB is a little sharper than I too. Good thing I didn't title it green & yellow rules .... Good man AHS... New rule... It is acceptable to flip tractors for profit to buy more tractors. In the interest of our kids it is also acceptable to use said profit for new shoes or a college fund instead of squandering on more tractors or tools.
