Circa 1994 – The mighty 1951 Fordson Major Diesel being skillfully handled by the equally mighty Renee Nied. We sure did some work back then, pulling trees out of the woodlot running a Cutditioner over hay fields, and growing everything from cantaloupes to carrots to kiwi!

The US president just attacked a female bishop for saying Christian things in a Christian sermon, calling her a "so-called bishop", not "smart", and "not very good at her job."

And no one will blink an eye. It won't be a controversy or a big story. All normalized.
