Do you grow food

farmboy2017 comments on Apr 3, 2018:

I do! I planted asparagus crowns the other day and I planted 20 heirloom tomatoes night before last to transplant around June 1. Tonight I'll plant some okra that I'll transplant down in June. I usually germinate indoors and transplant later on to get a head start on my season. I'd grow 20 acres if I had the acreage and a market. Oh, and someone to grow with:)

What would you do if the end was near?

farmboy2017 comments on Apr 4, 2018:

I'd go to my farm and tend my plants. Hopefully the asteroid would hit my side of the earth so I'd be vaporized instantly instead of a slower death by suffocation or whatever it is that happens to the other side of the world. I'd want it to happen during the day. Night time can be so lonely.

Just this afternoon I dreamed that I was taking a nap. And...my ex-wife came 'home' and started to exercise (not exorcize) while she was smoking. That was just plain 'ole weird!! And I didn't recognize the house. Time to get up and go do something!!

Should there be a legal minimum age for religious indoctrination?

farmboy2017 comments on Apr 8, 2018:

I recall an article that stated the human brain doesn't reach cognitive maturity until around age 25. So if there was an age that such a thing could take place, I'd vote for something way beyond high school or driver's license age.

When did the practice of men not carrying a purse but a wallet start?

farmboy2017 comments on Apr 9, 2018:

My ex-wife would buy me shirts with no pockets on them!!! I have to have a pocket on a shirt. She thought they looked nice but I can't use a shirt with no pockets. Farm boys have to have a pocket. It's a wearable purse! In grad school I carried a shoulder bag and loved it! I'd carry another one if the need arose. Now, where'd I put my jumper cables???

Guys, your opinion? [theguardian.com]

farmboy2017 comments on Apr 12, 2018:

I didn't think much about the article, itself; but I do agree that there's quite a bit of toxicity in being trained up as a male. An example: I teach at a small private college (yikes, huh!) where we just started a football program about 5 years ago. During the Fall, our Administration gets several phone calls each week from residents living next to the practice field. They're complaining about the cursing! And most of the complaints are aimed at the language coming out of the coaches mouths!!! All the men in my family were football coaches and I can say it's a toxic environment for youth.

Spontaneous Human combustion Fact or Fiction?

farmboy2017 comments on Apr 17, 2018:

I don't believe a word of it. However if it were truly spontaneous, there should not be a source of ignition...just walking along minding your own business and poof! Some of the comments, below, imply or outright suggest an ignition source. How is that spontaneous? I believe in spontaneous combustion to the same degree I believe in the boogey man. But, that's just me.

However, even if they do 'biblicize' the textbooks, most schools in my area don't even use textbooks anymore plus students don't read anymore so I wonder if it'll have any impact at all except to satisfy the egos of the adults. I teach at the college level and students don't read and they actually refuse to buy the texts!!! And my school lets them get away with it...
