I have a buddy from Missouri. A few years back after hunting season He left me some deer sausage with a note. It was good! I saw him a few days later and he had a big bandage on his nose. He said when he was skinning the deer, he had it hung up, and when he was drawing his knife down it slipped and hit him in the nose, taking out a big chunk of skin. What was troubling he never did find the chunk of skin. I hope it didn’t up in the sausage. He’s got a big scar and part of his nose missing.

People from Missouri are freakin tough.

Joshua managed to unbolt a deadlock on the back door of his family's mobile home just before noon on Monday. He survived rain and two chilly nights, ponds and creeks, hills and boulders, ticks, bears, mountain lions and snakes. He had no food or water, and by the time he was found three miles from home, was wearing only a T-shirt and one sneaker.

It sounds like he left a wake of destruction in his path.
Is there any wildlife left alive in that part of Missouri?

Maybe he can come kill that heron eating your koi, pandy. ;^)

Thank God the child is safe. I put a net over my pond finally. That heron was getting too fat on my fish.

Safe? I think he would have built a wilderness empire if they hadn't gone in and gotten him out! ;^)

Joshua, Joshua Childers! King of the wild frontier.
