neil 2,398 #1 Posted January 25, 2011 Can any of us relate to this in our lives I have adapted it slightly for the american terminology You own a lawn tractor even though you live in a Flat/apartment You wore overalls at your wedding. Instead of family pictures in your wallet you have pictures of all your tractors. All of your tractors have names. You spend more than five minutes a day at YT Magazine's web site. You mow the lawn with your combine. You plow even though you fully intended to go no-till. You drive your tractor instead of your B.M.W when the wife sends you for groceries. You have Slow Moving Vehicle emblems on all of your automobiles. You're still reading this stupid list to see if you fit in. You get more email messages at work pertaining to tractors than to work. You have a picture of your new Tractor on the wall in your office at work. You send all your buddies .jpg files of your wheat field. You put a little chrome tractor hood ornament on your wife's new Ford. You drive your TEF 20 around a busy town You send all your buddies .jpg files of your neighbor's field. You know more about your tractor's ancestry than you do about your wife's. You have a picture of your tractor for your Windows wallpaper on your computer at work. Your wife's new car lives outside, so your old tractor can live inside. You work in town for eight hours a day so you can afford to go farm for eight more. You are working on your tractor and your wife says "Honey come to bed!" and you reply "Not now, I'm busy!". You are working on your tractor and your girlfriend says "Honey come to bed!" and you have to think about it for more than a minute. You use a plow foot for a paperweight. You have more toy tractors than your kids do. You think that burnt TVO and old grease smell good. You read Tractor & Machinery Magazineor LAGC while you're in the bog instead of a Playboy. You subscribe to Successful Farming magazine just to read Ageless Iron Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
