The Haiku Police concur and note, for the record, “dibee” is two syllables... not the French dibea (pronounced dib-ee-ae). The Haiku Police do not condone usage of any French at any time... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AHS 1,443 #79 Posted January 11, 2021 Rule number ??; if a Wheel Horse is under $100 for buying, you don’t have to tell your wife. 😀 3 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 67,695 #80 Posted January 11, 2021 I recently had an experience wherein I missed on a tractor that was free by a few minutes. My female was seemingly just as disappointed as I was. I believe that should give me forward permission to get another tractor 2 1 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WHX?? 48,834 #85 Posted January 13, 2021 (edited) Good one farmer ... new rule shall be amended as follows..... Telling the SWMBO, or other members, you paid alot less than what you actually paid for said tractor shall not be considered as lying but rather BSing. Depth of said BS shall be directly proportional to quality of said tractor and heft of frying pan and/or rolling pin and ribbing from said members that you overpaid.

I feel it's also important to point out that BS is the initials for Big Show and that means that it's automatically a good thing. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AHS 1,443 #87 Posted January 13, 2021 Remember I said that; selling a Wheelhorse for a lot more than you’ve got into it, that’s 50 bucks WELL spent!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ohiofarmer 3,276 #88 Posted January 14, 2021 It shall be perfectly acceptable to show up for date night with your wife smelling of rotten gasoline and/or or grease under your fingernails. It is also perfectly acceptable to slip out to the shop during holiday gatherings the moment politics or religion is discussed. There shall be no mention of a coincidence when you suggest to your wife that you miss your daughter and suddenly discover a tractor for sale once you arrive at her place. bonus points for finding another one on the way home. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
