Shooting an elephant is ####ed up. It's like shooting a dolphin, killer whale, or gorilla. These are some of the smartest animals on earth
86% of Americans disapprove of big game hunting, yet we have these heroes out there waking up elephants from a sleep and then shooting them. Because that makes you a bad ### in moron circles I guess.
I'm not against hunting generally, but I totally agree when you are talking about rare, magnificient and intelligent creatures.

Not a direct reference to elephants, but I heard an interesting podcast a while back about rhinos. Also endangered, but in this case, there is a problem with old bulls who are too old to reproduce, but will drive off or kill younger males. So the government auctions off a permit to kill the old guy so that the younger males have a chance with the ladies, ideally resulting in a net gain of the rhino population AND more $$ to help protect against poachers.

me too :excited: :sleep: :excited: :banned: :banned: :pickle: :headbang:
Teach me how to pull this off.
I have to work on Friday and they don't want to come back Thursday night. Of course work for my office will be 18 holes at the golf course but I didn't see that as an important detail to tell them. :shrug:
Expertly played, GB.

I did NOT have to report to jury duty at 7:45am. Called the number and they said they didn't need my juror number, excused, thanks for playing. Told my boss I would be in, he told me don't worry about it, enjoy the day so enjoy the day I shall!!! Parents came over at 8am to watch Hazel and the twins, wife and I went to Hazel's conference (yes, for a 3 year old; don't care, got me out of the house) and it went quickly and well....so well that we decided to hit the neighborhood bar for bloodies and breakfast. Today has been a good day.

Our kid's Montessori school has conferences as well. They have little check boxes for how the kid is doing in every area. They never check that a kid shows mastery. For anything. It's kind of hilarious, actually.

Maybe in 1978.

 
I drove across the great commonwealth of Pennsylvania with a child who screamed for about 2 hours of the trip after screaming intermittently since 4am. So I'm not tired at all.

 
So I just walked into an empty house.

I get drunk now, right? Maybe do some laundry? Honestly don't know what to do with myself. It's been 2.5 years since having kids.

I usually go right for Internet porn...not sure if that works for skirts though

Not only that but it's just a spectacular day here. I worked from 7-11 then bailed and went to my bil's place and cut a bunch of firewood. Did a good deed too, gave away most of it to a coworker for free. Happy thanksgiving everyone

 
It's been almost a year and a half since our house burned down. After 3 moves, a contractor that quit and ran off with a huge chunk of cash, and an innumerable amount of setbacks and stress, we're finally moving back into our own home this weekend. :pickle:
