Just a reminder, the fence around the farm north of town is ELECTRIC. That means that if you touch it, you are gonna get zapped. That keeps the buffalo inside the fence where they belong. Should some part of your anatomy touch the electric fence when you get too close while taking pictures, it is gonna HURT.

Hey, Kel's, is it true what they say about peeing on an electric fence?

Judging from the dog I saw do it once, I would say that's a yes.

Was it kind of like the joke about the boy sitting on the street corner intently looking a glass of clear liquid? Originally Posted by retdetsgt

The kid says, with a knowing smirk, "That ain't nothing. Take some of this here turpentine and rub it on a cat's *** and it will pass a motorcycle."This career is not a sprint, it is a marathon.

Weird. I didn't know that and it explains the end of the 1933 cartoon of "Three Little Pigs" where he puts turpentine in the boiling pot of water for the wolf. (I thought I'd just throw that in there. People were tougher in 1930's and could handle seeing things like that, I guess.) Originally Posted by Cat_Doc

I may have been raised in a small city, but I spent a lot of time on the farm at my Originally Posted by Cat_Doc

I had a neighbour who had a problem with another neighbour's dog. The dog kept coming into his shed and peeing on his BBQ so he hooked up a car battery to the BBQ's metal frame. No-one saw what happened, but the yelping of that dog could be heard for miles, and he was last seen running at the speed of a thousand startled gazelles. He did not return. Rumour has it that when he was in the back of his owners truck and the owner passed the shed, the dog would wet itself and tremble.

When I was a kid, my mother put up an electric fence around her garden to keep deer out. We got up one morning and one of my Dad's horses had gotten out. We found him with his front legs inside the garden, his back legs on the outside and he was holding his stomach up over the electric wire. He apparently hopped in and the wire zapped his stomach every time he moved or let his stomach down.
My Dad turned off the power and even removed the wire and the horse still wouldn't budge. We had to tie the horse to a tractor and pull him away. Once he got away from the garden he was okay. After that you couldn't ride him anywhere near that garden.Apparently, I'm supposed to be more angry about what Mitt Romney does with his money than what Barack & Michelle Obama do with mine

I guess little girls are smarter than little boys cause I lived right next to a dairy farm in Maryland when I was in jr. high, and all I had to do was LISTEN to the vibration and know it was fricken dangerous, lol. Originally Posted by kels

I'm guessing it would be a bit more difficult for you to piss on an electric fence than it would the little boys?
Just saying.This career is not a sprint, it is a marathon.
