    Effects of barbed wire due to range fires

Apparently it...

    vacuum cleaner recommendation

    We have 6 long haired Australian Shepard's and the Shark has been really good at getting dog hair. The Shark is maintenance intensive because you have to remove the roller and clean the dog hair out that wraps around it. Its an easy process but it gets all the hair.

    We had Starband satellite internet about 8 yrs ago. It was FAR BETTER than dial-up which I'm on now...again. My wife and I just don't spend enough time on the internet to make it worth it. Heck cell phones don't even work out here.

    Has the roaring stock market really helped the average Joe?

    Most of any $$ I have made in stocks goes back into our farm, equipment, parts, fertilizer , seed etc. So it does have a trickle down effect and help the average Joe that works at the feed store or John Deere dealership.
