Cowboys really sucked.

Just saw a report about Feral hogs. Texas has an estimated 2 million. Hunting by helicopter has become big business out here.
We figured out that with helicopter shooting removal, the coyote population returned to normal after about 6 weeks so a big business to harvest the pork this pest provides could obviously support more economic exploitation.
When a family has lived around the same area as mine for two hundred years, you get old articles like this one:
You got that right. I easily found this link concerning my 3rd great-grandfather. I read somewhere that Adam Steele was the first lot holder in Lexington.

Panthers: (Protected species) Dad came in with one a couple of times that I can recall. Once in North Mississippi on his BIL's farm he got a biggun. He flopped that big cat in the pickup and off to the County Seat they went to show it off. While they were doing this, some person mentioned that it was a Protected Species.
Nothing wrong with protecting species. If a predatory species is truly endangered needing protection then an appropriate subsidy would certainly seem in order as a temporary mitigation to determine and implement a mission based solution. A 30-06 solution is a simple, cost efficient tool to consider. Remember ecology & economy are the same word in the same world. No different than any other issue, but it's difficult to manage the liberties of environmental Neanderthals and the do-gooders, who are also in environmental Neanderthal camp, have been given control as deemed deciders with a social engineering agenda looking through a keyhole. I suspect God knows this.

Good afternoon D-leaguers my Bride and I voted yesterday in person at the courthouse. No way would we trust the mail carrier we have! Lol. And my Bride is a retired rural mail carrier. I voted straight republican for the first time. I have never marked the box for a straight ticket either way, but I did yesterday. Then I let my bride go upstairs and pay the property taxes. We started still have our arms and legs but it was close. Have a great day folks!
 
Well. I couldn't conclude all of my business today with Ky guvment.,,,you have to make an appt to renew your license (no idea why it;s the guvment). Didn't get to do the tags either. But me and the the wife did get to vote early. I did my part and so did she. Also, dropped off my daughter's absentee ballot, she asked I do it in person. She doesn't trust the mail either.

I voted today in person in Bowling Green. It was wonderful because the longest wait that I had was about 5 seconds. It was also the first time I ever voted in shorts and short sleeves.

I voted for one Democrat, my best friend who is very conservative, but will not change parties.

I have always hated someone who voted party. I did not vote party, I voted for the people I like. It is not my fault that all but one are Republicans. :)
 
Good morning from ATX. Currently 75°F with 86% humidity and partly cloudy. Expect 90°F for our max high. Fall comes next week, I hope.

43 years ago today. Time sure does fly. We lost some great talent

One of my favorites. I was 17 (almost) when their plane crashed. Sad day.
They were awesome. Coincidentally, my close friend married Ronnie's first wife, Nadine, a couple years after the crash. Both stayed together for about a year.

Happy Hump Day. That's all for now.

Wishing happiness and continued good health to all our fellow D-League members.
 
God Is great! Once again rehabbing, and I thought I was doing better and feeling better! A week ago Monday I took a terrible fall, went and was checked over and sent home. Friday I took an ever worse fall and back to the hospital
for tests, stitches and an over night stay! Tomorrow and Friday follow up doctor visits due to the falls. I'll catch up later but just not feeling well right now. Take care, my friends, and blessings to all!

When I first moved to Atlanta had an outside sales job that I hated and part of my territory was Doraville. This one place I called on the guy I talked with was really nice (but don't think I sold them anything). A few years later I changed jobs and career path. Would go a lot to a BBQ joint and saw this guy there many times. He remembered me and I remembered him, so we would talk a bit every time we saw each other.
Years later I found out/realized he was one of the owners (I think) of Studio One in Doraville (on Oakcliff Rd, or Dr. or Ct .... there's a bunch of them there)....recording studio where LS did a lot of work. Their last album if I'm correct was recorded there.

So sorry to hear this. We are praying the Lord will give you strength and protection. God bless and I trust the doctors are able to figure out why you are having the falls and avoid them in the future.

Sir,
God's comfort to you. Unimaginable what you are going through but I do know God can provide what you need. God IS faithful.

Oh, Good Morning all and may God's comfort engulf you in your situation and in your time of need may God provide the way.

My goodness brother, that's a tough time. Hope the Lord helps and blesses you to get well and recover fully.
 
This is the Miami River, then and now. A natural paradise turned into an urban hell hole. I hate big cities.

Good grief, that is horrid looking. Over the years, after traveling and spending time throughout the great state of Florida, from Pensacola to Miami....Jacksonville to the Keys, I'm convinced that many, many parts of the state were just not meant for man-made, urban development. Such a wealth of natural wonders and beauty overtaken by concrete and overpopulation.

That bouncing around glory is greatly over rated and hurts like . . . the dickens.

Ditto that for California. People weren't meant to live in deserts.
