I don’t eat pork or pork products. It’s not a religious thing; pork just upsets my stomach. The effects need not be discussed in polite company. I can no longer afford beef or lamb. Fish is mostly unaffordable these days as well. I like chicken well enough but it can get boring.

Of course I’m sitting here on six acres of meadow way out in the woods. Lots of ducks are on the pond across the road, deer and turkeys walk through every day and there’s a Mossberg 835 not ten feet away.

Hmmm...

I live on 8 acres in rural Alaska right in the middle of a winter moose migration route when they come down from the heavy snows in the hills.

One of these days buffalo will again populate the prairies from horizon to horizon.

I too have issues with eating some pork, I can eat a Christmas ham no problem and every sunday morning I must have a plate of salted and peppered bacon, but thats it.

I’ve got 100 acres with a 12 acre bass lake sitting in the middle of it.

If push comes to shove I do have a variety of critters around to make up for what Obama has priced out of my reach too.

Ducks have been known to develop paralysis while in flight and tumble from the sky. This phenomena is often accompanied by a boom like sound as their muscle coordination ceases... I betcha that if a bambi just happened to walk into your sight and dropped dead of a sudden coronary failure, and then marvelously gutted itself and jumped into your freezer, you would not complain at all ;-)

Best thing about being out in the styx is that the neighbors also have a plague of bambis committing suicide on their property. No one seems to be able to determine why the rise in bambi suicides...

My dearwife was against causing bambis to have heart attacks right up to the time they ate most of her rose bushes.. Amazing how her thinking has modified...
