I was just teasing you, cowgirl.
We're going to have to find you a rodeo and put you in the greased pig chase. As one of the pig chasers, I mean. |

The women usually participate in the flagged goat chace, that is more fun anyway.  |

A greased pig sounds like one mean critter.

A sow with a litter of young IS a mean critter, but these are usually piglets.
It's hilarious to watch a group of six to ten-year old kids chasing a bunch of greased piglets. |

The women I know usually participate in chasing me down and making me take them out to dinner. My treat, of course.
A hungry woman is a lot more dangerous than a black bear. |

When I was 7-8 grand dad took me too the Great Smokey Mountains only 40-50 miles from their place. Grand Dad had just bought a brand new 1956 Buick Road Master. And he was going too show us a black bear while at the Smokies.Well long story short version...... grand dad was throwing peanut butter and jelly sandwiches out the car window.It's the pull over just before the tunnel going up too Clingmans Dome if you know the park road,In the spring!! well he goofed and missed the side of the road and that big piece of PBJ sandwich landed on the hood!!! We had a "HUGE"!! Black Bear sitting on the hood of that car, it took a good half hour before the park rangers arrived and all most the same length of time too get that dumb bear off the hood. I had nightmares for years........ |

Sometimes TENNESSEE bears like to pretend they're cows and sneak up on people . . .
That's what I've heard. |
