Worthy of Consideration
On the more personal side of things...Last week, to make a long story short, the Dogs got out from me. Both Squeaky, my Plott and Bell, the Blue Dog stayed gone for two days. I searched, asked folks, asked two horses in a pasture as the Stallion snorted at me (I snorted back)and saw people I ain't seen in years. Squeaky had been seen wondering around yards, playing with Lady Dogs, down in Frozen Creek. The next day I got a call, he was in a woman's yard and hurt. He had gotten on a Bear and it had bit him good. He's fine, I just have to keep his cuts clean.
I had called for Bell, walking a thousand yards off from the house the day I got Squeaky back and she came running up behind me...Unscathed and in heat...

Oh! Goodness! You are about to become a grandpa! No comment! I wonder about all the cacaphony of cultures . . . everyone believing because no one believes in much anymore . . . but it's nice to know that dogs still act like dogs . . . and they come home . . . nothin' meant by it except it reminds of our birddogs over the years many years long ago.

Run spell check.
Dogs in heat cause big dog fights. Sounds like what happened to squeaky.
Bill, Squeaky was too sore to walk back up the Mountain. I had to go get him and lift him in the truck. The man told me he had a wound on his brand, but, he's got six. All in the hind quarters except one on his right ribs. None that could be sewn or stapled.
"everyone believing because no one believes in much anymore ". That says allot.
OK I will, Daddy. I did it on the work computer and had to depend on Blogger...Which, can be contrary.
No, it was a Bear. Like I said to Bill, all of the wounds were hind quarter. His left rear leg was real sore, but it is about healed. His others are coming along. I gave him a shot of pennacillian today. I keep them boiled and Blue Kote on them.
I had a funny QRN experience.
I suppose you liked that article?
Read the article and I think I agree. At least history indicates that it is so. If all the nuclear states got rid of their nukes, some Bin Laden or Mugabe would develop them and they would be dumb enough to use them.
Did finally eliminate the QRN? Or get more?
I had a relay come loose, making me lose my parking lights. That mornig every time I keyed the mic I had a whistle sound in the dash. Found that it was the relay with my lights ad the whistle went away.
Yeah, it's sad, but true. Besides those such as you mentioned, we are not in a state to handle full scale conventional war.
Saw this at Instapundit. I think I identify with the Libertarian aspect. Would like your thoughts.

I guess the link doesn't work as I have pasted it, so look it up at Instapundit.
Alright, Daddy, but, I'm not reading all 103 responses...
