Stewardship of pigs (1 Viewer)

[HelloKitty65]

"Stewardship" first appeared in the English language about a thousand years ago.
www.etymonline.com says that steward was from the old English "stiward, stigweard "house guardian, housekeeper," from stig "hall, pen for cattle, part of a house" (see sty (n.1)) + weard "guard" (from Proto-Germanic *wardaz "guard," from PIE root *wer- (3) "perceive, watch out for")."
Good stewardship was, and still is taking care of your pig (or pigs).

Agreed!

I think any of us who aren’t merely turning them into bush trucks qualify as stewards.
I have been seeing it referenced across the classic car spectrum and generally agree, we may be getting personal satisfaction but the big spinoff is future generations will actually have these things around...seems so few are left some days, especially with certain makes/models.

You need about 4 pigs to make one good pig and by the time you have made the one good pig your realize that you only need one pig.

Ever.

It's all hypothetical to me. I don't have one. Only aspire.

 

[Ol Yeller]

Only aspire.

Plymouth?

Plymouth?

Ouch! No, all early FJ40's (if a '71 counts as early).

I think my pig takes better care of me than I take for it. It has never left me stranded, always gotten me where I need to go in the worst of weather, and has taken me on awesome adventures (some of which may have been a bit extreme for the both of us). I should really start to take better care of it. It is older than me after all.
