The Bully Pulpit is in or near the Theodore Roosevelt National Park.

The poor guy must have had a bad lie (snake-in-the-grass?).

Any male who has suffered thru the installation of a urinary catheter, inserted via the penal route,can compare it to a rattler bite.

I'm now safe...had a suprapubic cystostomy.....gave me two navels.....damn prostate!!

That golf course is in a town with population 112, in a county of 901. How does the financial support work?

Just askin.

When you are where rattlers are,,, it’s “bit”. It isn’t “say my good man, I have been bitten and I am fearful that he has injected venom”

It’s bit, and poison.

“inserted via the penal route,”

I think I would hate that, the prison route likely being right up the wazzoo. Now the penile route, I think I would detest that just as much.

C & P from the source.

I imagine “bit” is the common usage in the Badlands.

Medora is a tourist town during the summer months. Fantastic place to take your family. Breathtaking scenery, friendly people and oh, the musical in the outdoor amphitheater.
