[Shotimes] 89 SHO for sale, cheap

[John Phillis]

Farm life aint what it used to be. I live in Smith Twp. in Washington 
County, and in Smith Twp. there are lots of low income people that live in 
mostly cramped streets of old old coal mining towns. houses were built by 
coal companies for their workers, and needless to say since the coal mining 
era is gone around here, most houses are now filling with low income 
hanburger flippers, and older senior citizens, who don't have things such as 
trash pick-up, or nice working cars. most people burn their trash in their 
backyard, and most people have a 20 year old car and 4 or 5 parts cars in 
the back yard incase it breaks down.
Well, not anymore...  things are growing up around here, housing 
developments are moving in, and so are people from higher tax brackets who 
find this sort of thing disgusting, and a threat to the environment. (which 
in itsself is funny considering at the time this place was mined, (strip 
mined) reclaimations were not mandatory. In turn, large 1000 acre plots of 
land are left turned under, with large jutting chunks of black slate and 
"red dog" (burned slate) mountians of sub-rock and barren ground. rutted 
from time. streams turned orange from water run-off across iron ore 
deposits.  it is not a pretty place to say the least.
but now, man with BMW and 2.5 children move in, to their newly built 1/4 
million dollar house in a plan, or in some cases million dollar housing 
plans. (must be nice to drop $1,000,000 on a house.) and they are taking 
over local government. tree huggers, whale savers, people who listen to 
Jimmy Buffet. and here I am, 7th generation farmer turned bodyman, living in 
the same place that my great great great great great great grandfather 
originlly was given in 1777 for his service in the revolutionary war. and I 
am told that my haybaler which is weathered and rusty needs to either be 
garaged or "removed from sight" along with my cars, and anything else that 
doesn't have current registration, inspection, and liscence plates. Am I 
mad? yes I am. there are only 361 registered voters in my district. 320 of 
them are democrats. and then I, along with 40 others are republican. so 
there really isn't too much I can do about it. I am not moving.
so, to add to my list.
1990 Chevy 2500  runs, inspected, new GM crate engine. $1000 2wd.

That seems a little Nazi-like to me...I could understand (somewhat) if you 
had them in the front yard of a house in a subdivision (actually, even then 
it's YOUR land, isn't it?), but a farm?!?  What right do they have to tell 
you what sits around on your farm?  Every farm I've ever seen has some 
assortment of vehicles around, and I can't imagine who'd care...

actually, no I don't want to sell any of them, they are my children, but
they just put a new ordinance in effect that says I get fined $500 a day per
vehicle for every day that I have each vehicle on my farm. so $500 times 22
= I go broke fast...

but basically I will get rid of most of them, for what they are worth, or
less, and then, everything else is going into a building a I am building...
unfortunately the bast*rds want a building permit for me to do that too...
they will get their money anyway they can... the sonsab*tches...
