I was walking on that bridge in your avatar a couple months ago.
Ponte Vecchio bridge in Bassano del Grappa; small world isnt it? Long Damway from Appalachia.
You from there, you should know Everything.

I hope to Hell it tastes better than Watermelon Wine.
Tried that once Long ago and Far Away cause Tom T Hall wrote that song about it.
Nasty stuff. I bet Tater tried it too.

Well we mess around trying to get a Gallon of. Good Likker. The whole thing is on the ground now barrels busted all to Hell, 120,000 gallons of GOOD stuff caught in retention ponds, so the fish won't get drunk. All these old warehouses around KENTUCKY full of barrels....... Black likker mold all ove...

Shhheeeiiittt.
The other half just fell down today.
I believe 20,000 barrels all total.

Did y'all ever notice that little rectangular box stuck to their hand 24/7 ???
How can you expect them to do a job with only one hand?

All joking aside....this is a serious situation.

Ain't no Lie, but I've blown 4 tires on Hay Equipment the past week and just now getting started!
Groundhogs? Ain't got many but I Killed 10 Coyotes this year already.

And a wash sitting in the tub all sealed up for 3 weeks that I haven't had time to run.

Aleve is naproxen sodium and I take 2 every day just to keep going with bad knees and hip joints. Knee surgery and hip replacement surgery are Routine...... Sure. Until they are cutting on YOU. A friend had Routine hip replacement surgery last year, got severe infection, nearly died then had 3 strok...

Everyone has made some good points. Probably Goose Eye made the best one regarding the alleged price these fellas are getting for a gallon of Shine.....It must be Pappy Van Winkle these folks is making. The early shows with the law sneaking around the woods are long gone.....just plain ridiculous. T...

Hear a jar of dunno what it is, found it in back of cupboard.

Well DAMN. Congratulations Jed!
Maybe you get a BOY this time.

It was indeed an honor to meet the 3 of y'all.

He sent me a PM. He was off from work that day and was NOT on the train. His wife is safe also, as she stayed home also, but that WAS the train they take to work if they don't drive.

Freekin Beautiful Still.
And to stop the foaming, add some butter or olive oil.

I heard there was a big Train Wreck on the route he takes to work every day.
Maybe he took the motorcycle today?
Thinking bout you buddy.

Man, he's older than Dirt now.
Take care of yourself friend..

Nice rig, lot of money invested in it.

Ben Stiller.
Dam, that old German K-98 Sniper Rifle would have been best left untouched. Maybe about 5 Gs now.
I have 3 K-98s but what you described was a HI dollar rifle.

Oh man! My daughter! 8) Yeah and if you want to banish her to Appalachia, we will give her a good education in the finer things in life. Like Hunting, Shooting, Fishing, 4 Wheeling in the mud, killin hogs, pluckin chikins, bluegrass music, and meeting some nice young man wearing a Camo hat chewing ...

I still remember that dam smell.

Shhhush.
Maybe he won't find out!
You have brightened up our day missy.

See my post about Wild Chery wood that I made a couple weeks ago.
Ain't doin THAT shit anymore.

I suppose I have an odd taste in music.... I have seen AC-DC 3 times in my lifetime..... Ozzy Osborne in his heyday..... But. I also saw The King of Bluegrass...the late Jimmy Martin, The Stanley brothers, Don Reno and Red Smiley and about every Bluegrass Artist that ever cut an album. Right now whi...

I LOVE Wal-Mart.
As long as they got sugar for $8 for #25 and Milk for .98 cents a gallon. Aigs for .49 cents a dozen.
That's Me on the People of Wal-Mart on the internet.....
Actually, I did see someone I know on that site once.

I posted a message that seems to have disappeared..... Appalachia-Shiner said he used STICKS; Tater said TWIGS AND LEAVES contain prussic acid. Maybe others used heart wood which, it would seem, does NOT contain the prussic acid. Geoff Sorry I didn't clarify what I used. It WAS heartwood which had ...

Thanks for the replies. Tater, now I know why you always be drinking that Clear stuff.
Going to dump the rest of it. Man, it's purty.

Well. Thank you very much HDNB. I was going to add that I never get a headache from anything I ever made. I know exactly what kind of tree it was that I used....a Wild Cherry from the sticks of Kentucky, because I cut it down. I think I'll give a jar to my brother in law who is always wanting free s...

Last year I made a couple gallons of likker, sweet feed and UJ types. I charred some sticks of Wild Cherry wood that I had cut on my farm for firewood and dropped a stick in each quart. As you know Wild Cherry Wood makes some purty reddish furniture. It also makes some purty red likker with a distin...

I broke a bolt or two on mine till I bought a Grade 8 bolt and chucked it up. Not saying you won't break a Grade 8 but I have Not yet. But I did coat the threads liberty with Anti Seize before I screwed it in. As for grinding down the end of the mill, I think it would likely twist off, since it's so...

I have just started malting some of the New Crop corn. I also have had a few problems with mold in the past, but this time I tried the dilute Hydrogen Peroxide sprayed on the corn as I put it in trays to germinate. ZERO mold. this stuff seems to do the trick.

Sugar 25# Bag at WalMart is $8.78 a bag.
I can't believe it is that cheap....I have seen it for nearly $1 a pound a few years ago. And with the Hurricanes this year, the price could go up significantly.
Maybe its time to can peaches...
Jest sayin......

I'm glad things are going good for you Jed.
You are going to be a "Pillar of the Community " before you know it.
