Cindy Sheehan bought land near Bush’s ranch for antiwar demonstrations?

November 292009

Does it bother you?

She lost a son to a stupid war, why shouldn’t she be proactive? Would you rather she just sit on her hands, and do nothing? That’s not going to happen. I applaud her efforts at being a thorn in President Bush’s side. To Cindy Sheehan, keep doing what your doing, give all these bozos hell!!!

If the nation really is under a Code Red terror alert, why is President Bush still on vacation?

November 292009

Five years ago when Bush got the memo of an impending attack he didn’t leave his phony ranch either. I think the current liquid explosive alert is legit, but it seems to be the result of homegrown British terrorists, not people from the Middle East. Thank God the Brits are on their toes. We seem to be just as asleep at the wheel as we were five years ago.

If your response is going to consist of personal insults or saying that I love terrorism and hate America, than you’re a liar, because none of that is true.
For what it’s worth, the White House knew about the plot for four days before it was announced to the US public. It was announced the day after Karl Rove started working on Joe Leiberman’s election campaign. Meanwhile on Friday Bush gave a BBQ for rich RNC donors.

It didn’t take long for someone to attack Clinton. That was inevitable. And someone had to say I hate America.

I’m damn sick and tired of "King George is taking care of everything. You don’t have the right to know." Bullsh_t. That’s Big Brother talk. I’ll be damned if I give up the Constitution and leave everything to King George. I’ll take our Founding Fathers over King George any day of the week.

Dubya is an idiot. He always seems to be on vaca during a crisis(Remember Katrina?) I’m a manager & when there’s a major crisis while I’m on vaca I still have to handle it. I truly think he really doesn’t give a sh*t about anyone or anything but himself. Only 2 yrs 2mos left of his term! I cannot wait ’till we have someone competent to run this country.

when im older around 21 years old i want to run a rescue horse ranch on the counrty side of brampton has…..?

November 292009

anyone achieved that.? im young and already made up my mind of running a rescue horse ranch. how do i build a barn do i pay someone to do it for me? can anyone tell me what my future has in hold for me if i make this move?

A lot of times if you let pubilc know what you are planning to do, you may get some donations, even donations on labor to help build etc.. You could hold funraising events to raise money to get what you need to start with. Like have a public breakfast etc.Your future will hold ALOT of hard work if you follow through with this, it is a 24/7 job but it will all pay off.

To provide, or not to provide?

November 292009

So my girlfriends mother and step father are what I would say pretty religious people.(attending church more than 3times a week) They have only been married for about 4yrs, and they live in a very small community in Southern Oregon. They are both in there late 50s. She owned everything before they met, Really nice ranch, cars and guest house. He had an old broken down mid 80s camaro and was a cook in a crappy dinner living in someones basement.
Anyways they are really broke now cant even afford to pay the phone bill, ranch is getting really run down, had to sell a couple of cars, and he now has this secret lair in the guest house supposedly doing a "computer business". And on top of that he spent all of HER retirement money on the stock market last year and as I said have been broke ever since.
So this really pisses off my GF and her 3 sisters to see there mother live this way, and not being able to call there mother to check in.
So they have asked why he doesn’t get a job several times to pay for the bills and upkeep on the ranch. Every time he says no I have computer business, (which doesn’t make money IMO).

My question is, do you think as a so called religious man that he should be providing for his wife the way most husband and wife’s do?
Is he living high on the hog at her expense, since he had nothing before and just draining her financially?

I do believe in God, Im just haven’t gotten as far up the trail with him as most of you have.

Should we just mind our own business? Does it say anywhere in the bible about providing for your wife?
Thanks I hope this makes sense
I almost forgot, He’s burned the rapture in to the head. Saying going to be any time now.. Another reason he doesnt want to work..

If she doesn’t’ mind, why should you? Money is not what makes people happy. Just think it does. When she has had enough, she will deal with it.

Why is Bluestem always mentioned in ranch sales, when cattle won’t eat it.?

November 272009

Buffalo and natural herds eat Bluestem. I tried some and the stalk has a lemony taste. May I add it to salads? The grass-head has a soapy smell.

Anyone make use of this?

blue-stem grasses were originally used before grains became subsidized by the government as a cheaper way to feed cattle for shipping to stockyards.it was and still is used for dairy cattle to keep weight on them.blue-stem pastures are usually used from may 1 or when the grasses start their spring growth and goes to september depending on the condition of the pasture or weather patterns.the problem with blue-stem is it is a slow growing cold weather grass and needs time to recuperate before the next grazing season starts so pasture rotation is a must to preserve the grassland.there is a rule of thumb when pasturing on these grasses goes two to four acres for a mature cow to preserve stability in the area for a six month season.by rotating pasture between cattle,horses and goats you can keep a cleaner pasture that is better ecologically sound while keeping natural wildlife habitats.unless you are a cow,bison,yak or other ruminant the grass is not good for you to eat.

sorry for the long winded education on grass pasture management but i live in the prairie so i have to balance the environment with production.

How do I get started in owning a ranch?

November 272009

Posted in ranch | 4 Comments »

I am looking into buying, renting, or going Contract for Deed on a ranch. The problem is I have limited credit and collateral. I do have over 15 years ranching experience and used to own my own agri-business.

What are some alternatives I can use to get my own land to start my dreams?
I currently live in NE South Dakota and am looking to buy a ranch/farm in South Dakota, North Dakota, or Montana. If anyone know how I can get into a farm or ranch with low income and credit, please let me know.

If I were looking in to buying a ranch I would go to the Bureau of Land Management to find available government land. There are grants available from the Department of Agriculture and other agencies. As a farm kid myself I would suggest to acquire a place that you can manage by yourself or with the help of your family, in other words don’t bite off more than you can chew.
