who me?
Like I said, you know who you are
Our neighbor who is long on money and short on brains, has a huge horse stable full of horses that she is scared to ride. And they crap a lot, her husband hates the manure pileup, so they haul it to anyone who will take it, free of charge.
He got a nice new dump trailer and when the stalls are cleaned, they put the refuse in the trailer. But, they always use the trailer as a garbage disposal, and twine and horse Kleenex (don't ask) is the most common finding.
One day, I asked the lady, "Who is the moron that keeps putting twine in with the horse manure." She replied, "Oh, if it is tied up real nice in a bundle that would be me, or if it is just single that would be the barn slaves... We don't know what else to do with it"
Apparently, since their manure never graces their own fields, she has no idea what a mess it makes on the beaters on the spreader.
Can I have the twine police phone number please?
I HATE Twine! I love the stuff when it is on the bales. I love the stuff when I have to fix something (like tie up the tomatoes, fix a broken board until I can get a new board, you know stuff)but I HATE it scattered all around the hay stack!
I want the TWINE POLICE number too!

Fred. twine police boy I need their number too.my faarm help doesn't like picking it up either.
Not a good day here at all. with Tawny wrecking her car, then a guy I work with dropped a 80 # piece of 5" pipe on me toe. pinky, smashed it nicely, broken also.
Oh well at least it a long way from my heart.
Love ya, Matt
Tell Matt that that makes three accidents in his family, so I hope that ends it. Thankfully all three will recover. I feel sorry for his toe. I know how that hurts.
We head to the GUNSHOW IN MIDDLETOWN NY this week end. Hope to sell a lot of books.
Love
Mom
I think baling twine has a place in this world but not laying around the farm. I especially hate the plastic crap that we sometimes get. That goes right into the garbage.
I'm the twine police here - my boys know it's one of the things that will cause Mom to "pitch a fit" if I find baling twine laying around anywhere. They really do a good job - like you all said, it can be a real pain in the butt.
Nita, that is awful! I am always just about breaking my neck tripping on it!
Linda, you can build just about anything with it, but it can be a pain...and nowadays it doesn't rot down and it is stronger than any tractor part ever made. If that engine on the Case had been made of baling twine it would still be running!
Matt, I feel so bad for you and yours! I had to work with broken toes that year the boss had his appendix out and it isn't any fun. Take care....love you
Mom, who else? I hope you sell so many books you come home with a van full of empty boxes.
Love you!
Send me a link to the show if they have a site and I will put it up and try to send folks your way....
Deb, I should do the same and sometimes I do, but it is just one of the things I can't keep on top of. I put my foot in a loop of a piece certain people had tossed on the floor and almost went face first on the floor when I was milking yesterday morning. It hurt!
Oh Boy do we have this problem!!!!!!
WR, Handiest stuff in the world, but dang, I hate tripping over it.
