Let's just say that he won and was able to stay on with us until the next weekend. We had to re-group and strategize! Ha! If he would have known why he was leaving our farm he would have outwitted us the next time as well!Boysaplenty!!https://www.blogger.com/profile/15272694697911481872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6994967819405801133.post-4717808555093708742010-07-14T15:27:17.872-04:002010-07-14T15:27:17.872-04:00My husband said one summer when he was helping a f...My husband said one summer when he was helping a farmer for extra cash,he had to help load a herd into trailers to move to another farm. <br /><br />When they had a couple of bulls not want to board the trailer, the farmer handed him two sticks about 1 inch around, 2 feet long. He told the boys to put the bulls tail between the sticks, and hold gently- one hand on one end of the sticks, one hand on the other - until the bull started getting disagreeable...then squeeze a bit with both hands. The bull shot into the trailer like a rocket. Free motivation :)~ Jackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14856854802602817322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6994967819405801133.post-13373169866527202462010-07-14T08:44:52.797-04:002010-07-14T08:44:52.797-04:00If you don't have a cattle prod, a car battery...If you don't have a cattle prod, a car battery and a pair of jumper cables will do in a pinch.<br /><br />I suspect jumper cables were named by farmers and ranchers, or at least it fits even better than the original reason. :oP<br /><br />~FaithFaithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15491898004275353526noreply@blogger.com
