DC Tom Posted July 26, 2014 Posted July 26, 2014 Can't remember the last time I've agreed with Tom, but he makes a point. Time to burn the wallet. It was Sue's homework thread. JH, if you don't burn that clover, I'm holding you personally responsible for the Bills not making the playoffs this year.
Johnny Hammersticks Posted July 26, 2014 Posted July 26, 2014 JH, if you don't burn that clover, I'm holding you personally responsible for the Bills not making the playoffs this year. Ever heard of the butterfly effect? I've been on a pretty good run lately, Tom. If I burn that thing, I could be living with my family in a van down by the river by Monday. That's just bad ju-ju brother. The Bills are on their own.
boyst Posted July 26, 2014 Author Posted July 26, 2014 I found 3 more this am getting ready to work cattle. At 330 I found 8 more four leaf and 2 more five leaf in a 25-30sq foot area in less then 2 minutes as I picked up rags, tools and changed clothes in the driveway area... Wtf...
CountryCletus Posted July 26, 2014 Posted July 26, 2014 Have you found any that look like a standing or charging buffalo??
boyst Posted July 26, 2014 Author Posted July 26, 2014 Have you found any that look like a standing or charging buffalo?? nah. But I found a two leaf clover once

What kinda of fertilizer do you use? Obviously, it isn't weed-n-feed... http://www.noble.org/news/news-releases/2010/10-030/ "ARDMORE, Okla. — Turns out, the lucky four-leaf clover – a universal symbol of good fortune – is not the result of an ancient mystical force, just a special group of genes. Research conducted by scientists at The Samuel Roberts Noble Foundation and the University of Georgia at Athens (UGA) has discovered genes responsible for causing this natural phenomenon, helping answer century-old questions about inheritance of multiple leaves in white clover. While multiple genes dictate leaf color and shape, the study discovered a "repressor" gene specifically responsible for limiting the production of clover leaves. When the gene does not function, which can occur naturally, white clover plants develop four or more leaves. "The four-leaf clover is a natural variation seen in nature for centuries," said Joe Bouton, Ph.D., director of the Noble Foundation's Forage Improvement Division and plant breeder. "There has been speculation about the role of inherited genes and the number of genes that cause this variation, but it has been virtually impossible to track. Until now."..." Who whould have thought white clover was a legume! "...Clover leaves can naturally produce a red pigmentation, or anthocyanins. Anthocyanins are believed to have certain health-benefiting characteristics. Leaves producing specific types or greater amounts of anthocyanin are capable of delivering such beneficial compounds to consuming humans and ruminant animals, such as cattle. Additionally, experience gained through this experiment can be applied to other legumes which play an important role in agriculture. Legumes take nitrogen from the atmosphere and – using special bacteria in their roots – turn it into its own source of fertilizer, which can defer input costs for agricultural producers..."

This is a Bills board so if it takes putting your family in the aforementioned van to get the elusive Lombardi then our expectation is for you and your family to suck it up and get on with it....

And you know where that van will be parked? Down by the river! And then he'll be the one asking to take a shower in someone elses place! ;-P ;-P

I don't think the FCC would go for that twist of a plot line to DirecTV commercial. ;-)

CountryCletus Posted July 27, 2014 Posted July 27, 2014 Are you sure, I was almost positive it was 104%
thebandit27 Posted August 4, 2014 Posted August 4, 2014 As an update, Mrs. Bandit and I were blueberry picking over the weekend (so as to save money on them since my kids eat like a quart per day) and I found a 4-leaf clover within 10 seconds of setting foot on the farm. That's the whole story.
Gugny Posted August 4, 2014 Posted August 4, 2014 Are we getting manicures before the TBDHOT again this year?

Wtf... you don't happen to live downstream from a nuclear power plant by any chance? perhaps your clover is being pollenated by 5-winged bees.
boyst Posted August 4, 2014 Author Posted August 4, 2014 you don't happen to live downstream from a nuclear power plant by any chance? perhaps your clover is being pollenated by 5-winged bees. I had found 51 total yesterday. And 3 of them were five leaf clovers. you don't happen to live downstream from a nuclear power plant by any chance? perhaps your clover is being pollenated by 5-winged bees. I had found 51 yesterday, and 3 five leaf clovers in five minutes.
