Tractor Fatigue

[glennmac]

Darn tractor made me do something stupid again. I got out of my car and was walking to the locked front door of my house, deep in thought as to whether I should take my tractor out of the garage to walk my dogs, and instead of flipping up my front door key, I pointed the car door opener on my key chain at the front door and clicked -- unsucessfully.

I'm in my kitchen making coffee in my Moosehead Lake, Maine coffee cup to put in my Spillmaster cupholder on my tractor before I go out brushhogging. I'm deep in thought as to how to make a dustcover for the cup. (What would happen if you swallowed poison ivy dust?] I reach into the refrigerator to get the milk for the coffee. Instead, I take out a bottle of diet coke, open it, and pour it in the coffee. Too late, I realize what I have done.

I have never done that one before in my life. I'm tellin' ya, it's that tractor that does it.

I decided to pour some milk in it and drink it anyway. Not bad!

Well when it comes to coffee I drink mine black and strong so that is one problem that I would never run into. About the poision ivy, never heard of that but I sure wouldn't want to be the one to find out.

I use a 1950 Case DC for plowing, disking, FEL work and a Case 1951 SC for wagon work and sickle bar mowing. DC has a hand clutch on the left and the SC has it on the right. All other controls are in the same place. When I get to backing up the SC to a wagon and reach for the clutch with the wrong hand it's telling me I'd better put the equipment away and take a break. (Double Yikes!)

My wife and I both drive diesel trucks so I am used to waiting for the glow plug lights (not to mention the Kubota). When I get into my police car 50% of the time I turn the ignition halfway and wait while I look at the dash wondering where the H*&% the "wait to start light" went.
