Hmm, I grew up in Arkansas, never knew that. Maybe it's legal to marry a step-sister in Arkansas.

Sure. It was nothing against Earle on my behalf either. Sometimes I just think funny things.

Well, Arkansas figures that if they allow you to marry your first cousin, who's going to marry your sister?

People I knew in Virginia were "double cousins". This means that your uncle, is married to your aunt, you share grandparents, and genetically no one could say, that your "cousin" is any different from your sister.

They got married, of course.

Earle

There is a name for that...

Earle

Who's on first.

More importantly, who gets stuck with sloppy seconds?

Hmmm... "Page not available"... Does that mean that your family tree doesn't branch?

Yes, but it makes going through life easier.

Good on you! I killed and ate a lot of game when I was farming (raising cattle in the east) but I thought of it more as harvesting than hunting. When you gotta flip a coin to decide whether to kill the rabbit under the wood pile or the one in the rose bush it ain't hunting .

On mucho experience with hunters and game management while farming, raising cattle and breaking horses. Any farmer knows that if you put 125 head on a pasture that can only support 100, they will eat all the grass then pull up the roots then all starve, leaving perhaps a dozen alive. Same goes for deer and other game. It is essential to limit their population to what their habitat can support. That's a scientific fact born out by practical experience - nothing "bleeding heart" or "democrat" about it.

It is also factual to say that few hunters today hunt for meat. Some of my neighbors do. They organize a drive every year and kill more deer in a day than the sport hunters do in a season, but those who hunt solo, often from tree stands, swear that drives are not hunting, especially if you use dogs. But either way they spend more $$ on the hunt than they would pay for a side of beef or pork. Ergo, they are not doing it to eat.

What has that got to do with "bleeding heart liberals wacko limp democrats"? The ones I know dispise hunting and game management.

Of course I was. So were you! You are irrational. Peace in the near east?

That's funny.... The whole time I worked in Naval Special Warfare as an operator, we were strictly forbidden from using any other ammo other than US gov't issue ball ammo for the .45. Also I wonder how the Black Talons were used in the SOCOM Mk23 three years before the SEAL teams or anyone else in the US government ever saw them.... interesting. Frangible ammo is usually reserved for CQB use to prevent collateral damage.
