Jose,
I assume you're talking about the hat that Sabino was wearing in the photo
that accompanied his interview in AcresUSA. And I would also assume that
your insinuating that his big hat somehow leads to a small intellect. Sabino
is a personal friend of mine and I take offense at your lame attempt to
discredit my friend.

Can you please tell me, sir, in what place on this list does your low brow
and misplaced attempt at humor belong? It takes a very small person to
attack another with regards to race, sex, or mode of attire.

I have defended you with Jeff, and I have looked forward to your posts. But
all I want to do now is take you out back and show you a good Texas
Ass-Whoopin' (while wearing MY big hat)<<grin>>. Doesn't take much brain,
but it might help cool mine down right now.

Big hats, sir, are big in Texas with those of us that work outside.
Something about reduced ozone layer, skin cancer, etc....

p.s. (Haven't seen your interview in AcresUSA yet)

First time I went to Hawaii I got amazed by the high of some pick ups
that had big wheels . Then someone explained me that some of them had to
have big (high) wheels because they need to go into the woods for
harvesting illegal marijuana.
Anyway, my friend in Hawaii said that the high of the pick ups was
proportional to the size of their owner's brain, i.e. the bigger the
wheels the smaller the brain.
Can we use the same reasoning for hats ?
 Just curious.

Jose

>> Serendipity played a role in his developing a system for making

>> Before meeting Beck, Cortez had encountered the water-pressure
>>cone, and he saw its application to agriculture's escalating manure
>>problem. Water under pressure could destroy pithium. Some five or
>>six years ago Cortez joined Beck in a partnership for the purpose of
>>using this modified manure to combat fire ants, which are a scourge
