Brought a tractor yesterday a junker when I went to pull the ramps out on the trailer the retainer pen was bent so got down on knees and beat it straight. I felt what I thought was a skeeter bite then another near my manhood buy that time they had my right leg covered. I may have felt 4 bites are so knocked them off and went back to beat'N on the pin while laying on the trailer. It was hot I was sweating and miserable.

About 2AM I woke up with chest pains I am not one to go to the ER but I did git in the car and drove to the ER. I went thur the normal checks for a heat condition got the nitro pills a patch and a IV... About the time they were done and wanted to keep me I remembered the fire ant bites they did not even look at them all they wanted was for me to spent a day and a night at the Hospital even tho every think looked great. I was still sore in the chest but not hurting the nitro pill killed the pain in a minuet are so.

I left at 5:30 does everyone drive to work at 5:30 the bypass was crowded... I just made a pot of coffee and went to work I had more to do today that the law allows. When I set down in the shop with my coffee my leg was starting to burn I looked and from my knee up to my hip it was red and blister from fire ant bites best I could count several hundred. I was glad I ware tight drawers :) briefs are what ever you call'em...

No doubt in my mind my issue was from the fire ant bites but to man up I am going to pay my dues to a heart doc Friday morning at 9....

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point ... [Read Article]
