[AT] allis c's

I used to hide several tractors under one tarp but then Lovely Linda caught
onto counting steering wheel lumps.  She is also catching onto the old line
about "Oh...that one?  Nah...I'm just keeping that one for a friend."  Gotta
move fast in this game.

She asked me if I was trying to hide tractors from her as there were
tractors scattered here and there in the trees and brush.  I quickly
informed her that no, I was not hiding tractors--this is just how you unload
a dead project.  Back up to a tree, tie a chain on tractor and drag it off
of the trailer.  When I mention tractors, I don't count those in line for
the shop, only the runners (good runners?).  I don't usually count her
horses, except I do have to do the normal doctoring and scutt work like
floating teeth.  Arn't you glad that Allis tractors don't have teeth.
