And the sad part of it is that I sold off my dad's 12 ga to a friend a number of years ago and presently own no firearms...but you do have the right answer.

Hi all. It's been a few weeks since I dropped by. My new part time job has turned into a bit more than I bargined for so I don't get much online time.

Did you also happen to know it is "Naked Hiking Day"? No kidding, big write-up in the local paper yesterday about it. Apparently falls on the first day of Summer every year and people go trekking thru the woods nekkid. At least the ticks would be easy to find

Naked hiking. I'd be real easy to spot. Just look for a scrawny, gray haired guy with lots of tattoos.

OK, guys....Serious question. I have a fence to tear down, and need a way to remove the posts. These posts are 4-5 inches in diameter, and from what I can find out, are hydraulically driven into clay soil about 2-3 feet. Even after all the rain we've had, they are rock solid. We tried pulling them with a chain on a scoop on the front of a farm tractor to no avail. Would lift the rear of the tractor off the ground. Even broke one chain.

Several that needed to come out at any cost we broke off - they break off at ground level, and don't push sideways at all. I swear they are screwed to bed rock! We tried pushing them back and forth from several sides with the tractor, they will not budge. So, any ideas? (No, I'm not gonna dig them out).


I don’t carry a gun because I’m evil. I carry a gun because I have lived long enough to see the evil in the world.

Try breaking a little ground away from the side of the post and dump some water in there, then hook'em up to the Super Duty and give them a solid yank. Otherwise get the shovel and start digging!

Boy, wish it were that easy! Ground here is saturated...been raining for 2 weeks. Posts are still rock solid. I tried the log chain over a 4X4 to the superduty. Broke one chain, didn't even budge. No, no digging...that's for young pups.
