Having left behind an agrarian upbringing to attend university and endeavouring to return to said lifestyle soon (i.e. as soon as I cast off the shackles of student debt), I will continue to visit and read through your entertaining and encouraging posts. Thank you, and keep raising your boys right!<br /><br />-Tristan in Vancouver, BC, CanadaTristanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12298005390334434952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13729569.post-88413317645354568172009-04-12T09:18:00.000-04:002009-04-12T09:18:00.000-04:00Happy Easter!My brother-in-law is building a Whizb...Happy Easter!<BR/><BR/>My brother-in-law is building a Whizbang Chicken Plucker for my sister and I.
