I had to LOL at “like clowns from a volkswagen”. I don’t think it was mean… just clever literary license. It certainly painted a clear vivid picture!

I have no idea where spencer county is in Indiana. I’ll ask Mark and see if we can find it.

Thanks guys!

Aww the rabbits are so cute.

Your barn is really old and it does look Amish. They didn’t build for its looks but functionality.

Good podcast…

Hey Scott!!

Yeah, we’ve always assumed it was Amish built. Looks aren’t everything, and a coat of paint would make a huge difference.

In Castpodder would there be anyway to give us the option to limit what type of enclosures are downloaded based on the mime type? Or perhaps exclude certain mime types? (really cool would be mime type with globbing) Recently there’s been more and more people including video’s in their main stream, and I really don’t need to be downloading 80meg video’s that I can’t play.

Misty & Andrew,
I have a very portable electric fence that I use for moving the sheep around. I picked it up at Maryland Sheep & Wool festival last year. It makes ‘mowing’ the front yarn a lot easier and the sheep will fertilize at the same time ;->
I can’t remember the name but I do remember the face. If you can wait ?til early May, I will get their info for you.
Thanks for the mention,

Hey Carry!!

We just got back in from recording episode 10, and holly cow, it’s going to need a lot of editing. wine+podcasting might not be a good mix. Hehe. ;)

We talked a lot about using a portable electric fence actually. We’re very seriously look at buying one from Premier1. Does that ring a bell?? Any ideas/opinions/thoughts/experiance are appreciated. If you feel up to audio comments that would be great too.

I hope this makes sense. :)
