MJD's Photo in the post below reminded me of a time when I was smaller, had hair and weight of about 200lbs less. We had our silage custom chopped because our 300U couldn't handle a chopper. Our hired gun bought a brand new 1468 (I think it was) I still remember .. it was awsome! His first job with it was at our place then he took it home. His two young boys asked their dad "since the tractor got dirty could they wash it?" Dad rolled over on the couch to nap and told his two boys to knock themselves out. They got dish soap from their mom, poured it down those two big chrome stacks into the big V8 and filled the machine to the brim with a garden hose. Two days old and a teardown. My father later told Clyde (The tractor owner) to keep his boys at home. Dad caught them shooting our bulls bag with a BB gun. Should be a book titled "Rex and Ray". To this day they haven't changed.

The whole key here is the guy was taking a nap instead of out working.

dads need to spend more time with sons so they will learn a thing or two.

Those boys didn't by any chance move down this way did they?

No, Lucky for us, they stuck around. Last time I saw Ray (in his late thirties now)he was wearing a T-shirt "I may be dumb but I can lift heavy things". Just in case we had any doubts.
