I am off to find me a morse. Of course.
Yeah, I had one that was too uppity to bother with dead fish, but just let her run on a beach and she'd find an ucky diaper someone didn't bury well enough. Usually when we were riding back in the car, naturally, not the truck!

See if there's a garden club and join. If they're like me, this time of year I got so much veggies I don't know what to do with em. You could take the excess of their hands and can it.
But an even better deal would be to knock off a few of them pesky deer and trade venison for canned veggies.

If I join the garden club then I'll have to dress up and go to their tea party. I guess I'll just have to go back to being a fishatarian or a meatatarian. I'll just be doing my part to save all those vegetables for people that really need them.

When you think about it, vegetarians are responsible for global warming. They kill the plants that produce oxygen and that causes more greenhouse gasses forming and going out into the atmosphere. They should convert to eating meat so that the plants they eat can produce more O2 for us.

Recognized the reference Kari. Thanks for refreshing the thought of those books.

Personally, I like meat too much to forsake it. And most (if not all) of the hunters I know are more interested in putting meat and fish into the freezer then in an oversize trophy. I mean, I have been in villages where moose and caribou racks are thrown out the back door for years.

I know someone who tried to parachute a bottle of Jim Beam and it didn't work. Was well wrapped with a home made parachute, and the pilot flew as low as possible, but it still shattered. People waiting for it were not happy at all.

That is the saddest thing I have ever heard of. Are you trying to make me cry.
