There is nothing so comfortable as money, - but nothing so defiling if it be come by unworthily; nothing so comfortable, but nothing so noxious if the mind be allowed to dwell upon it constantly. If a man have enough, let him spend it freely. If he wants it, let him earn it honestly.

We act as though comfort and luxury were the chief requirements of life, when all that we need to make us really happy is something to be enthusiastic about.

The tragedy of life does not lie in not reaching your goals, the tragedy lies in not having any goals to reach. It isn't a calamity to die with dreams unfulfilled, but it is a calamity not to dream.

Normal day, let me be aware of the treasure you are...
Let me not pass you by in quest of some rare and perfect tomorrow.
One day I shall dig my nails into the earth, or bury my face in my pillow, or stretch myself taut, or raise my hands to the sky and want, more than all the world, your return.

It is better by noble boldness to run the risk of being subject to half the evils we anticipate than to remain in cowardly listlessness for fear of what might happen. Herodotus

If you have made mistakes...there is always another chance for you...you may have a fresh start any moment you choose, for this thing we call "failure" is not the falling down, but the staying down.

Today's empowered woman wants a loving relationship with a "real man" - and the first thing she wants to do is emasculate him.
My son was asking me last night what was the best time of year to hunt hogs.
I told him there's no closed season, but he was apparently questioning when the meat is best - I would think the colder months would be better, though it might be problematic to a degree, hunting them during deer season.
He could easily take a smallish piggy at up to 100-125 yds with one of the poodle shooters (he shot his first deer with the 6mm, hasn't shot the .243, but it's essentially the same gun and seems to be pretty well sighted-in).
Hogs are more active in cold weather since they have to work harder to forage food. Trapping them in the summer is very, very slow.
Dogs pick up scent better in cold weather as well. There are lots of places who would rather have the hogs killed than the deer.
My group hunts them the easy way... spotlighting. Are you ready to bring the boy up to shoot a hog? Have him practice at night with a spotlight. Email me for more info...
Why is it that when I walk into a room of 50 people and 49 of them like me that I spend all my time waxing that 1 person's ass so they will like me?
The next time I want to be a smartass and resort to name calling to provoke a response, would someone please slap me. Intuitive thought and reason work much better and is considerably more effective.
I should have been a Senator. I'm an expert on spending money... The trick is getting someone else to pay for it.

That's a big un. Whaddya say he'll go 250-275#?
Muscle weight... 350
Give the guy major points for keeping it together and getting a kill shot off will on one knee. The WTF? reaction of the dogs is, priceless.
Nothing like that has ever happened while I have been hunting. I guess that is why I never take along a videographer.

Does anyone else think this might be from a European country?
Clues...
1) Pig has more European blood than any I've killed in Texas.
2) The strange jackets the guys have on.
3) Those are not traditional "hog dogs". In fact.....they seem uninterested in the situation.
4) Not for sure but it looks like the gun was a shotgun.
Am I way off here?
