Is polar fleece underwear common dress in SW Arkansas? Just curious.

Just curious, if I happen to see a funeral procession drive by with a lot of pink flagging flying in the wind, once I pull over of course, what would be a proper surveyor salute?

Neighbor, my former boss, uses it to mark his electric fence. Ties on a piece about every 50'. The cattle don't eat it either.
I used it once in combination with a big wad of toilet paper to bandage up a wound I got in my leg when a piece broke off a bull pin. Also tie a piece around the drive shaft on the corn planter so I can quickly see if it's turning.

I still do but I don't go all the way round with it. I tie up two belt loops on one side.

I used to tie up my hair back into a pony tail when I had long hair....or I guess, when I had hair.

You can't use pink ribbon if you are attempting to hide in a watermelon patch from the owner of said watermelon patch who owns a 12-gauge and knows how to use it with shells loaded with saltpeter.

Decades ago I told another surveyor that pink flagging worked great to tie up my girlfriend. I then proceeded to leave bits of ribbon tied to various pieces of furniture around the house when he would come over. I still do it every once in a while when he comes over all these years later. The girlfriend is now my wife and does not find it nearly as humorous as she did in the past.

P.s. the fluorescent colors work better, they seem to be a little bit stretchier.

One of our survey technicians came across an owl which was tangled up in a barbed wire fence.
After untangling the bird we contacted Arkansas Game and Fish.
The agent came by, picked the bird up and took it to the bird rehab lady at Centerton.

I've got a bunch hanging from the clothes chute in the basement so that I don't bang my head on it. Sometimes it works.

Would that be a Cut 6.0 to top or bottom of coffin?
