    Thanks. The older they get, the more impressed I am. Truly excellent young men. WAY better than their parents. :lau oh yeah, bear and lynx both. Alaska fish and game hands out an excellent hunting pamphlet that goes over all known diseases in the various wildlife, and how to avoid them...

    Insane!!!! Not sure when I last updated this thread.... Kid 2 is getting married end of summer. The woman is a fantastic match for my son. I actually think that they will be happily married. A bear tore open a bunch of my coops... ate over half my poultry. I blame all the Californians...

    Agreed... but once no symptoms show up with small doses, I do think you then need to increase the dose... and keep up large doses for several days. Because, some times a small dose is fine for your body... but if you have the bad "thing" multiple days in a row, and at high doses... then...

    THAT is my downfall! Just give me my personal spiked gallon. . And I will suck it down... and watch the pounds add up! Anyway... I finally, said enough of that. So, I just go cold turkey with the eggnog. With booze or without... I just keep my mitts off. It is imperative that I...
