I don't fear it unless it's not mutual and she's overbearing about it. I'd love for a woman to say she's interested. Nothing to be afraid of.

Do you prefer using a fork or a spoon mostly?

Is Christianity kind of the same as Capitalism?

farmboy2017 comments on Mar 28, 2018:

Christianity is totalitarian. So is Capitalism because it gathers up more and more resources such as money, labor, raw materials, and influence (capital) and places it under the control of fewre and fewer people. It's vertically integrated just like monotheism.

So we're in the checkout line and I'm already half way out the door when the cashier asks the wifey what her zipcode was. I hollered '90210" and the cahshier girl plugs it into the register. I'm from Texas, btw. What an idiot! I love screwing with people's attempt to collect demographic info. I'm going to hell. Oh...wait a minute:):)

How old were you when you got married for the first time?

farmboy2017 comments on Mar 25, 2018:

I was 30. College educated. Had my own house on the family farm. Had 3 used cars, all paid for and all running! No student loan debt, no debt period! I was the most elligible bachelor in the county. Then I got married and it all went to hell. You'd have thought that carrying your own water amounted to being respected but that ain't always the case. Some wives want it all and expect someone else to provide it. Never again!

I detest board games. We have to follow enough rules to follow as it is. I'd rather spend my time creating my own art rather than being sucked into some mindless, pre-arranged crap that someone else wants to sell me. Is that too blunt! No wonder I'm single, huh?:) But, here's something everyone ought to check out-Google 'Nazi Board Games' and see what you find. It'll turn your stomach. (personally I think 'Board' games have been mistitled. They should be called 'bored' games. They're so very predictable and boring. And I'll shut up, now:)

farmboy2017 comments on Mar 23, 2018:

The wind energy business has a H-U-G-E carbon footprint! They don't mine the ore using renewable energy. They don't process or smelt the ore using renewable energy. They don't transport the materials to the construction site using renewable energy. The don't use any renewable energy to erect, repair or maintain the wind farms. Plus, for every ton of portland cement used in the concrete foundations of the turbine towers and transmission line towers, a ton of CO2 is produced. And then the electricity is released into a non-green grid. There's not a damned thing renewable about industrialized wind energy.

farmboy2017 comments on Mar 23, 2018:

I've tried it with very little luck. The bright spot was running across my ex-wife's online dating profiles. She had 3 of them. Lied about her age and vocation in evry one of them!!! I suppose it's rampant. The lying, I mean. So she hooked up with a loser and moved him into the house and he can't stay out of the hospital or hold a job. Now she's having to take care of a dead-beat and I'm loving it. That's my experience with online.
