Chesapeake bay?


hmmm

Pretty simple, actually.... the Feds poisoned them....

Wish they'd come up with the same program for Canada Geese.

They do. I work at an airport where they have hired the feds as
hitmen. They spray the eggs so that new generations don't hatch and
for the ones that don't get it, they carry 12 gauge finalizers......

A goose poops like an elephant....

No ****. No - lots of ****. You should see the mess they've made of the fairways
at the golf course. This year seems much worse than I've seen it before.

I've hit one with a ball and and I know a few others that have too.


I hope you killed it. And, I hope it wasn't swimming at the time. That could
cost a stroke. There's no amount of dead geese worth a penalty stroke.



That is one advantage of not keeping score. ;-)
The only rule about killing a goose is someone should dress it out and
eat it. Waste not, want not.

Golf course geese are usually good eating but they may be fatty. Try
to limit them to once a week.


I tried a goose once, in Germany where they're common at Christmastime. (Gosh, I
hope my mention of Christmas didn't **** off anyone.)

Anyway, it was atrocious. My kid took the first bite, which she spit out. I sent
her to her room. I then took my first bite, which I spit out.

So, I called my daughter, apologized for trying to make her eat the stuff, and
we had hamburgers for Christmas dinner.
