Tempe is basically Phoenix, it is one of the suburbs. I think Mark is from NH, he must have been refering to that.

Going to a race at Bristol is something I will do before I die. My first choice is the night race there. I hear the waiting list for tickets to that race is something like 2-3 years long.
I'd try eBay. Selling clothes on there is quite common.
I've really got nothing to add to the tractor talk. About my only experience with tractors is driving a few 7000 and 8000 series JD's through downtown Columbia, pulling a homecoming float in a parade, back when I was in college. Downtown is tight anyway, but driving a big 4x4 tractor through the streets with a 30+ foot trailer attached to it, and the streets being lined with lots of people & little kids, that was somewhat tense at times watching everything around and under me.

I know a guy that has a Hesston(German Engineering
) tractor. It has a minature can of ether out next to the air intake with a button on the dash to shoot it. That is the best starting diesel I beleive I've ever seen in the cold. He said he's pretty sure the can was never used. Come to think of it, I dont recall that thing even having glow plugs....I'll have to check next time I'm over there.

Our 8 plants before we got bought out fed with a few 966Fs, a 950, 966G, and a 980G. We have a 980F for our rap crusher but it was sold when the company got bought out.

we had a small Kawasaki like that once, that was a powerful little guy but it couldn't feed the plant fast enough when our 966 went down.

But dont'cha think It'd be fun to drive that tractor in a big field and push a bunch of dirt around? Does to me. The last time I went to visit Randy's parents (small town near Omaha, NE) we went to a town called Fontanelle to visit their orchard and buy some fruit and whatnot. We stopped at their only gas station to get something to drink, and this 'ol boy pulls up in his old IH to gas up, right there at the pump. He caught me checkin out his tractor and gave me a big old smile and a nod. He could tell I was a wanna-be farmer.

Those are some pretty good pumpkins. The History channel had a show on about Halloween last night and showed some really creative pumpkins. The guy had some talent and was using all kinds of power tools to carve them out. Sawzall to cut the top, jig saw to cut the shapes on the side, a Dremel to grind off parts of the skin where he didn't want to make a huge hole, and even made something he called a "gooper" to take the goop out of the inside.
