Growing up in West Texas the topic of rain was the first order of conversation.
Well, when ya think we might get some rain?
You had any rain?

Still starts out this way here in S. Texas. West Texas is a given there twern't any rain..

Neighbor lady stopped by yesterday, she’s in her 80’s. In the course of a discussion, she mentioned as a young girl one of her chores was to “oil the corn”. That involved dabbing some mineral oil on the base of each corn husk’s tassel/silk to discourage insects (worms?) from getting in and ruining it.
This was for the family‘s good eating corn.

"Recalcitrant".
My grandpa was an old farmer. Ran his entire dairy farm with a JD A and a JD 50 til he sold the farm. So, old................
I never, EVER heard the word "recalcitrant" used or spoken any other place before or after. But it was ALWAYS in reference to an uncooperative hog. A "recalcitrant hog".

Poke
It's not something you do with your index finger.
It's a bag.

Not a real member - just an ordinary guy who appreciates being able to hang around and say something once in awhile.
