YOU
MAY BE A FARMER IF...
- Your dog rides in your truck more than
your wife.
- You convince your wife that an overnight,
out-of-state trip for equipment parts is a vacation.
- You wear specific hats to farm sales,
livestock auctions, customer appreciation suppers, and vacations.
- You have ever had to wash off in the
backyard with a garden hose before your wife would let you in the house.
- You've never thrown away a 5-gallon
bucket.
- You have used baling wire to attach a
license plate.
- You have used a chain saw to remodel your
house.
- You can remember the fertilizer rate,
seed population, herbicide rate and yields on a farm you rented 10 years ago, but cannot
recall your wife's birthday.
- You have fibbed to a mechanic about how
often you greased a piece of equipment.
- You have used a velvet leaf plant as
toilet paper.
- You have driven off the road while
examining your neighbors crops.
- You have borrowed gravel from the county
road to fill potholes in your driveway.
- You have buried a dog and cried like a
baby.
- You have used a tractor front-end loader
as scaffolding for roof repairs.
- You've used the same knife to make bull
calves steers and peel apples.
