    Suck for these people.

    The state gets to decide what punishment fits the crime. Most countries, unlike the US, are very serious about preventing gun violence. They feel that the punishment is right for the crime, therefore it is. When traveling abroad you have to suspend the idea that the American way is the right way...

    Suck for these people.

    The first cold day of the first duck season that the law required non-toxic shot, I wore a parka I hadn't used since the year before. There just happened to be two shells in a pocket loaded with lead. That day is the only day I have ever been checked by a game warden while duck hunting. Nobody...

    Little piles of white papers

    You complain about the forest being litter with all those brown speckled snow snakes, but it can be worse. There are people who leave a deposit and don't mark it in any way. They just leave it hidden there on the forest floor, waiting for some innocent, unsuspecting Forest Service employee...

    We are fighting the last war . . . .

    I envision the day when AI will free mankind, and womenkind, from the labor force completely. Freeing us to pursue spiritual and social enlightenment. Freeing us to fill our hearts with art, music and love of all the fine arts. Freeing our minds to engage in contemplation of the true meaning of...

    CD? What's a CD?

    Oh?! You're talking about music. Music comes on big vinal disks that you have to wipe the dust of before playing. Never caught on to that newfangled CD thing. Didn't figure it would las long enough to invest in a CD player. I guess I was right.

    Fixing social security

    Wow, 38 pages! Still no solution. I think if we get to 40 pages of brainstorming on a hunting forum and the Social Security problem still isn't resolved, we are just going to have to admit that fixing Social Security is an insurmountable problem.

    We are fighting the last war . . . .

    I guess we will just have to task AI with developing new more efficient ways to produce electricity.

    FILM act

    The poaching charge is a state issue, and the permit is a federal issue so the state couldn't charge them for not having a permit.

    FILM act

    Personally, I don't think the permit should cost any more than the cost of issuing the permit and monitoring the activity. After all it is public land and filming is non consumptive and doesn't put any more stress on the landscape than does the activity being filmed. Activities like hunting or...

    School zones

    People tent to speed through school zones pretty regularly around here, but they do issue a lot of tickets. Lately I have noticed they are using photo enforcement at some schools.

    "Texas Heart Shot"???

    I don't know where the term came from, but I do know I killed my first elk with that shot. It was sorta, kinda by accident and I'm not real proud of my youthful discission making that day but I was sure happy to get my first elk. I was bow hunting and that blood trail was amongst the best I have...

    Mountain lions "losing fear of man"?

    When I go deer hunting, I go out into the woods and every deer runs for its life when they see, smell or hear me. But to get there I drive through rural communities where deer are grazing in lawns, eating rose bushes and resting under trees with people all around them. Cougar are the same. The...
