<br /> <br /> <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />My parents still live on the farm, in Missouri, where I was raised. The farm is right next to the tracks. You get use to the horns and the trains, and the cows, pigs, chickens and my duck. <br /> <br />You sleep right through all of it. [:p] <br /> <br /> <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />F Y I The duck "bit the dust" many years ago. I had raised him in the chicken coop (I guess you can say he led a sheltered life). One afternoon when it was drizzling rain I looked out the window and notice he was near the electric fence. I didn't think much about it at the time. Later I looked out again and noticed he was still there. So I went out to check. As I neared the duck I noticed he had apparently tried to bite the electric fence. So I lightly kicked him to remove him from the fence and see if he might be ok. He was not. That son of a gun was hard as a rock. Tell me, "where did I go wrong (sob sob) I tried so hard (sob sob) I just didn't understand him (boo hoo sob sob) There will never be one to take his place (wwhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaa)" <br /> <br />
