     had just sprinkled my corn and, with the wet


     leaves all around me, when I touched the wire I

     lit up like a Christmas tree covered with Fourth


     Of July sparklers.  I think I aged 10 years in an

     instant.  One more episode like that and I’ll be


     old enough to retire.  I’m considering

     connecting my 400 amp welder to the wire and


     welding their thievin’ little backsides to the

     fence.


             August 28 - I fixed them this time.  I put


     cinder blocks all the way around my corn under

     the wire so they can’t dig under.  It cost a lot


     and took me from 6:00 in the morning until

     midnight, and I lost 5 pounds in sweat, but I


     guess I showed them a thing or two.

     to unplug the electric fence.
