[@mikesmith9159]

Brian and Cole, I put this comment on an older video a couple days back but I’m guessing it was well after you stopped looking at older comments. Hoping the thank you makes it to you both this time!. I’m on a small beef farm out in upstate NY. It’s what’s left of my great grandfathers dairy farm. In March we lost our animal barn and some livestock to a fire during a nasty storm. The period of time after the fire were some really dark days! Weather kept us from doing much to even clean up the mess, so I watched farming videos as a therapeutic. Finding your channel along with solid faith that God had a plan got me through. We are rebuilding now and looking forward to having a more modern setup. Thanks for taking the time to make your videos!

[@briansonne814]

Im glad we could distract you from the hurt for a little while!

[@jamesbarry4324]

Cole and Brian you know it's going to rain in the next 3 weeks cause it's time to cut hay. Mike on my Wyoming life channel is going to cut hay this year but he hasn't in the last 3 years, he's had to buy hay from around the country . Your cows and calves are looking great !

@@davidobrienirl I'm true to my American roots of recent day, I like my beer cold and learned after 3 marriages to refrain from women completely. I apparently choose wrong even though I tried from the center to the west coast and then back to the east coast during my time! I guess I believe in something most don't and the women I chose were not right for me, I just couldn't give in when things weren't right.

DEA agent stops at a ranch in South Dakota and talks with a cattle rancher named Brian. He tells Brian, "I need to inspect your ranch for illegally grown drugs." Brian says, "Okay, but do not go in that field over there," as he points out the location. The DEA officer verbally explodes saying, "Mister, I have the authority of the Federal Government with me." Reaching into his rear pants pocket, he removes his badge and proudly displays it to the rancher. "See this badge? This badge means I am allowed to go wherever I wish... On any land. No questions asked or answer given. Have I made myself clear? Do you understand? " Brian nods politely, apologizes, and goes about his chores. A short time later, Brian hears loud screams and sees the DEA officer running for his life, being chased by Brian's big Black Angus Bull...With every step, the bull is gaining ground on the officer, and it seems likely that he'll get gored before he reaches safety. The officer is clearly terrified. Brian immediatly throws down his tools, runs to the fence, and yells at the top of his lungs..."Your badge... Show him your badge!"

Here’s a story…my Schwinn mountain bike was stolen off my porch when I lived in Tulsa. It ticked me off real bad. I took some flyers and tacked them all over the west side of the river where I lived. I went to the projects which were about 6 blocks away and was posting the flyers and put a reward on the bottom. While I was doing that I saw this 14 yr old black kid setting on it. He was talking to a bunch of other teens. I jumped out and calmly walked over to where they were, straddled the front tire and locked my arms around the handle bars and dialed 911 while I was doing that. Well, he pulled on it one way and I dug in and was pulling the other. Long story short, my bike is sitting in my living room right now. And that’s all I wanna say about that. You talk about the season of the witch! That boy saw a white witch woman that day. Storla Station
