Its not tickling my fancy like it once did. I think I'm getting sentimental.

Keep that thought.

What does Pete think about that?

My deer bolognese would make you change your mind.

Maybe this will help get you into the season.

It's cute you call your balogna, "dear".

It's a personal choice and I'm sure you'll make the right one for you, Maggot.

I wouldn't try to influence you in any way, ever.

How about you just go to the market and get a nice steak. Let Bambi keep his mother.

They're just gonna make more! So get going!!!!!



Kind of reminds me of last night!! Phew!

I agree.

Why is it cute animals (squirrels) are adored, yet ugly animals (rats) must be killed?

Maggot, I do.

We can probably eat four deer in a year. I have LOTS of recipes.

I already have two this year. Two at once. The day after Lady Cop passed away.

I consider them a gift.

The reverent side of me wants to point out that it is practically free food, almost devoid of fat and chloresteral.

The irreverent side?

It says:

IF WE WEREN'T MEANT TO EAT ANIMALS, WHY ARE THEY MADE OUT OF MEAT?

You went hunting the day after, or just ate a previous kill? I'd like to know.

Rats invade one's personal space? Maybe? Not mine, but you know what I mean.

This is a good one

Usually my clothes are outside, my rack is on the truck. I have my tags already and people have called me to set up a few days, but my mind says screw it this year. Archery is on now and muzzleloader is coming so shotgun is right around the corner. What I really wanna do is more fishing. Maybe I will go just a few times. I do like it when my freezer is full. I gotta get out of this funk. maybe target practice this weekend will wake me up.

I know what you mean Maggot. By this time last year I had 3 in the freezer. This year, I have spent less than 10 hours in stand. However, as I type, my clothes are in the washer, w/ scent safe soap. My bow is in the truck and I will be taking a couple days off work next week to gat my lazy ass in that stand.

The truth is that I sat out in a field near my house, with my rifle, for quiet and solitude.

The deer wandered within 20 feet of me.

I should also add that, where I live, it was the first day of regular rifle season.

For a change of pace, maybe you could target practice by shooting out the tires on passing cars. That just might get you out of your funk!

(And of course into jail )
