Correct description

Now, I'm even seeing this idiom in Implement dealer ads:

Set of plows

Set of discs

And of course, let's don't forget the ever more popular favorite:

Set of cultivators.

Gimme strength! :>)

Allan

Why in the world would anyone use the front or the rear of a mounted cultivator separately? Neither way would work worth a darn to my mind. :>(

But, I think you're right in your line of thinking. I would assume that some folks just mistakenly think that all those shanks are in themselves called "cultivators". :>)

This has gotta be a city boy/country boy thing! :>)

Allan

Oh sure, gotcha now.

Been on a ton of those rear mounts too. I like the Lilliston roller, can really move with those things. :>)

Allan

I'm an old country boy. It used to be breakfast, dinner then supper. I'm not sure when or why they put lunch between breakfast and dinner and what happened to supper.

I taught shop for years. One of the female principals didn't want me calling wire nuts, wire nuts. She seemed to have a real problem with screws and nuts, not to mention the (llegitimate child) file or turning on the lights. She really got upset when I called diagonal side cutting pliers, a pair of dikes. Guess we need to be politically correct, we don't want to offend anyone.

I told you we had to be politically correct. The system administrator would not let me use the word bas-tard in the message, which is the correct term for a specific type of file.

I've had real good luck using side-cutters over the years and then using the stripers. :>)

Also, I had an operation done at Sears that supposedly guaranteed me not to have any more children.

Trouble is, when the wife and I go to bed at night, the darned garage door keeps going up and down. I just dunno..... . :>)

I gotta go find something to do! :>)

Allan

Aint' it the darndest thing?

Just consider this your country version of a wake up call. :>)

Allan

You misunderstood him. He was referring to you grandkids.

As in, "Gonna take the booobs out for a ride in the sled". :>)

Allan

Atta boy, John! :>)

My day usually starts at 3:30am.

So since it is pretty quiet here, I set around and dream these goofy things up just for something to do while my computers are churin' away doin' there thing. :>)

But still, I can't help wonderin' if the implements always come in "matched" sets? :>)
