    Why the hate?

    Mea culpa. And...it actually was at least 40 years ago in the '80s. Keeping with the theme...the food is probably ... now.

    Why the hate?

    Many, many years ago, I stopped at the Thunderbird on 89 in Mt. Carmel Junction & ate in the restaurant. I ordered the chicken & dumplings, and it was absolutely delicious. I've tried to duplicate it several times with no success.

    I zoomed way in. Definitely a horse facing away but looking back. Ears would be too big for a bear anyway.

    OH YA!!! TAKE THE MUZZ SCOPES!!!

    My start into archery was a 45# Ben Pearson wooden recurve, cedar arrows with two-edged broadheads in a hip quiver & shooting with one of those 3-finger open glove dealies & a leather armguard. After aluminum arrows debuted, I actually managed to kill one little 3-pt. mule deer & one javelina...

    Bullsh!t -- The Game Show

    I found it somewhat entertaining as it went along. But then...it doesn't take a lot to entertain me nowadays. :rolleyes: I'm a whiz playing Trivial Pursuit, but most of the trivia questions on the show were toughies. Even though they gave four multiple choice answers, almost every contestant...

    Father of BASS tourneys gone

    I was fortunate to know them both, and each of them was a class act. When I lived in Colo., using our special writer's discount, I bought my first Ranger direct from them in 1977 and drove to Ark to pick it up. Forest happened to come into the shop when we were hooking it up to my truck. He...

    Bullsh!t -- The Game Show

    Soo I was flitting around on Netflix the other night & happened upon Bullsh!t -- The Game Show, with Howie Mandel as the host. It's a wild format with contestants able to earn $1 million by answering a series of 10 trivia questions. The amusing part is they don't really need to answer a question...

    When you're hangin' around for 80+ years, a lot of water flows down the rivers. I even remember using an old Ben Pearson wooden 'Javelina' with 45# draw & wooden arrows. Once even used a black telephone with a dial on it & a manual Smith-Corona typewriter, which I received as my HS graduation...

    Point Guard PLUS?

    No, the way the old PG worked is just as you indicated with the "new regs." It was always a case of losing the points after the 2nd time. So in the 3rd try, both you & wifie would start with 0 points (except HE, loyalty) if you had both drawn the first two times. In fact, I just went through it...

    First African hunt

    I killed 12 critters in SA, including all you mentioned except a waterbuck. Used my .264 Win mag with 140 gr. factory SP points on all but a zebra, which I shot with my .300 WM. Hit them where it counts with any decent bullet & they'll die. ;)

    Point Guard PLUS?

    Not sure what you mean. A person still can use PG twice to turn in a tag but gets BPs back only for the first time.

    Which brings us around to my tale from Mr. Lucky's.... ******* That reminds me of one my buddy's bar experiences. He was hitting on a good-looking blond who was seated at the bar in Mr. Lucky's. After a while she asked if he would like to go home with her. Obviously, he accepted the...

    Found things

    From a post a while back: Although it wasn't a span of many years, I had the unfortunate experience of finding someone dead a while after they went missing. It happened when I was living at Vallecito Lake near Durango & guiding hunters & anglers in the Weminuche Wilderness. It involved a young...

    Our main country venue was Mr. Lucky's. My buddy & I spent many a night there in the 1960s after we got done lifting at a nearby gym. Waylon cut his teeth there. In 1966 Phoenix businessman Bob Sikora built and opened what was to become Arizona’s first gambling casino called Mr. Lucky’s. When...
