ware that is! The pig farm strikes again. Man they kept pigs all over this site, I made 2 passes in this field not 75 yards and this is what I got.:BangHead: 30 to 50 pieces of int.silverware triple plate from Smith collage. I couldn't go 5 ft. without getting a spoon, knife or fork.
The plating is so thick it's pealing off in to sheets this stuff has got to be worth something? Well thanks for looking.

So that's what the pigs meant when they posted earlier saying they were going to spoon feed you an April fools day joke. Well done pigs!

My wifes family owned a pig farm from the 1950's through the early 80's as well as a sanitation company. They would get all the swill from the restaurants they picked up to feed the hogs with. The swill had utensils of all kinds mixed in with it. My wife said her dad used to make her brothers pick out the silverware so they could return it to the restaurants that gave them the swill. This explains the silverware at the pig farm.

l)- n. 1. A mixture of liquid and solid food, such as table scraps, fed to animals, especially pigs; slop.
2. Kitchen waste; garbage.
3. A deep draft of liquor.
4. Nonsense; rubbish.

The procurement manager at the collage must have wondered why they lost so much silverware? Just for Sh*ts and giggles
I'm going to find all I can, for the length of time smith has been around that equates to lots of copper and who knows about the silver? HH
