I spent nine years in the Navy to avoid getting drafted for two. :=)

My draft number was 2.

Then they stopped the draft before my number was called. Imagine that!

Well I went in anyway and served 4.

Counting Reserves, my ratio was 11 to 2. (Forget how to do a smiley sticking his tongue out...)

But back on topic, I must be just another redneck omnivore because I really can’t decide if I like venison more than elk more than speedgoat more than....hmmmmmm.

All this has done besides getting to tell Sea Stories again is remind me to check the freezer.

I do believe the grandkids went outta here the other day with an awful lot of grocery sacks and I suppose Grandma’s been restocking them again with the stuff I just laid by this fall. Damn.
