Catamount, That's a fact noone should know. Especially someone who is not in agriculture.
Did you move into the new house yet? I'm still stalled in the D process. No movement whatsoever. But I am feeling better about myself.

The largest cash crop here in Kentucky is NOT tobacco.
It's...well...umm...something you do smoke...
That's correct. Marijuana.
No kidding.
And...The state does sell marijuana tax permits.
Who's gonna buy one of those? The thing is, if you are caught with the dope, and NO state permit, you are charged with tax evasion as well...
Boo

The word "four" has four letters. In the English language there is no other number whose number of letters is equal to its value.

When the moon is directly overhead you weigh slightly less <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />
Here's to moonlight!!
Do the people in Alaska have an advantage over us in the winter because they have no sunlight or do they also not have any moonlight?

Farthest Human Cannonball Flight
The record distance for a human fired from a cannon is 56.54 m (185 ft 10 in), by David "Cannonball" Smith Sr. This human cannonball feat occurred on May 29, 1998, at Kennywood Park, West Mifflin, Pennsylvania, USA. It is estimated David was traveling at over 112 km/h (70 mph) during the flight! Despite all the airtime in his chosen profession, there is not a part of performing that David doesn't enjoy. "I am able to do something that is entertaining for people," he says, "I truly enjoy people!" He has eight children and five of them are human cannonballs! "The others are still too young!" he laughs. Continuing in their father's sky-high tradition is obviously in their blood
