Jewish Rabbi and a Catholic Priest met at Albuquerque's annual 4th of July picnic. Old friends, they began their usual banter.

'This baked ham is really delicious,' the priest teased the rabbi. 'You really ought to try it. I know it's against your religion, but I can't understand why such a wonderful food should be forbidden. You don't know what you're missing. You just haven't lived until you've tried Mrs Warren's prized Virginia Baked Ham. Tell me, Rabbi, when are you going to break down and try it?'

The rabbi looked at the priest with a big grin, and said, 'At your wedding.'

Just in case you thought Cowboy took top honors in the Darwin Awards, a guy in Maine died after attaching a fireworks "mortar" to his head and then lighting it........ His last words?................... "Hold my beer & watch this................."
 
Our rainfall in Comanche County can be described like catsup, none comes and then a lot. We have had 9+ inches yesterday and the night before. Had most of 70 acres of hay on the ground, 6 to 8 acres of this lies in a flood plain of a creek. I expect all of the hay in the flood plain to be beyond retrieval along and down the creek. I also expect the floating hay to have taken out close to hundred yards of fence. I'm about to don a pair of rubber boots and go slogging down the fence line to determine the damage, it will make for a long morning!
 
Well, it was closer to 200 yards of fence down and washed out. It was easier to just pen the cows and move them than to move tons of wet hay off of the fence and posts. That will be a good job for next winter. With a little bit of luck the fire ants will be hibernating.
 
I remember in July,1976, we lost about 1/4 mile of fence on the highway in Llano County. Of course had flooding in other areas as well so I stayed in a deer hunters cabin for a week and kept cattle pushed back from the road. All our horses & trailers had been left at another place on the San Saba River & we couldnt get to them because of flooding so had to borrow horses from a neighbor.
That flood was one of the worst in my memory. It took a good 6 months to get everything back in order. Some graves across from us were washed out that had been there since the late 1850's..........
 
Rain good, Flood bad. OAN, why would someone get on here and ask a question and then not check back in to see if anyone responded???? Weird... I know. (I have no agenda. Just observations.)
 
When I was stationed at AIA in San Antonio, I can remember either summer of 99/2000, that it rained so bad that I35 was flooded on the south side for about 2 miles for several days and they were pushing everyone around on loop 1604. We had gone to visit the ex's dad that weekend and every bridge betwen SA and Corpus was only a couple of inches from capping over.
 
I was perusing our local football schedule that the bank hands out and noticed that both Richland Springs & Cherokee have "away" games for the last game of the season.............. Only problem is they play each other................
