First there was the millions from the gent in Zimbabwe, and now this in my email today:
I CANNOT WAIT to get my PHD in physics, then an MBA...my goodness, won't I look intelligent. :D
Turn your speakers up and pay close attention to what this guy says as he lectures the class about gun ownership.

A LOTR wannabe, or a new classic in its own right? I bet on the former, but here's hoping for the latter! The Narnia books were decent, if not quite as engaging as LOTR...but the movie is done by Disney. Yuk. :( Well, as long as Mickey doesn't show up somewhere I guess it'll be OK. ;)
No, my wife didn't hit me with the frying pan. :p I saw some hunting show (Whitetail Hunting Magazine or something like that) Saturday morning, and they had a video from this guy who spotted a buck with a seemingly massive spread between two good antlers. He was running a doe; he kept his head...
I seem to recall some grumbling about the...um...navigability of my logging road last November. :p So here's a special before/after extravaganza just for you:
BEFORE:
AFTER:
I actually made a couple more passes after the last pic, so it's even better than it looks. It's all very...
I caught this for the first time a couple of days ago on The Outdoor Channel...it's suprisingly not bad. Instead of having some hunting celebrity (or celebrity wannabe ;) ) constantly plugging sponsor products while hunting or fishing with expensive outfitters, it's made up strictly of home...
Pretty standard pseudo-religious demon slaying fare. Good special effects and a few new twists to the age old "Hell come to earth" tale. Typical acting from Keanu Reeves. 2 Spikes from me.
We went for 20-odd days with no significant rainfall, then got dumped on for the better part of a week by the remnants of the last hurricane. Now the frickin' grass won't stop growing. :mad: I mowed it on Tuesday and it already needs cutting again. |oo It's almost August, you stupid weeds...
Here's what's going on in God's Country this month:
*Black bears mate
*Fox squirrels born
*Quail hatch peaks
*Black racers, king snakes, rat snakes lay eggs
*American lotus, water lilies bloom in swamps, ponds
*Yellow-fringed orchids bloom on crest of Pine Mountain
*Offspring of big brown bats...
We saw this at the local drive-in theater. Let's see...after getting there at a reasonable amount of time before the movie started (which means "late" for a drive-in :mad: ), driving in circles for what seemed like an hour looking for a spot big enough to fit the truck that my wife insisted on...
An interesting update to the often tried, often failed movie version. It's a lot darker and less schticky than the last go-around with Michael Keaton...I mean, Val Kilmer...I mean, George Clooney. ;) They tried to give reasonably plausible explanations of the various Bat-gadgets and the...
A rather eccentric coworker of mine loves big trucks. He's in the process of ditching his F250 for this late-70's Unimog:
It has the shipping wheels installed in this pic (it's coming from Austria, I believe); the "real wheels" are in the bed, and will add another 12" to the height once...
