Wonder how he's going to get around that one.

You mean they might kill some friggin' Canada geese? Where do I send money
to put these things up?

More likely DoDo birds that flock around golf courses.

Killing animals that annoy you is the Christian thing to do.

This should be good.

We all are but that is a political patronage position.

Why don't we put T Boone in charge and give all the auto makers wind
turbine contracts to keep them busy until they figure out a car that
people will buy.


T. Boone is an interesting and entertaining nut.

He's to be commended for his initiatives, but a lot of the wind has been
taken out of his turbines since oil started dropping in price.

I have a theory about wind power. If it is implemented on a massive

Or whatever the tree huggers are promoting at the time.

Tree huggers...

How very anti-environmental Republican of you.


Thank you very much.

Speaking of Canadian geese, I've always wondered why they call
resident geese (meaning those that reside in the US) Canadian.
Wouldn't you think that they would be called American Geese?

Here's another thing. We have open season during November for
resident Canadian Geese. Now as we all know, Canadian Geese, are
migratory.

How exactly am I supposed to tell when I aim at a Canadian goose if
it's a resident goose or a migratory goose?

Seriously - do the Canadian geese have a special license plate that
says Hoser on it? Perhaps Oie canadienne?

I mean seriously - what am I supposed to look for?

This should be good.

The little tag on their butts that sez:

"Only Big Brave White Hunters Shoot at Us Ferocious Geese."

First off, they aren't Canadian Geese, they are Canada geese. Geez. ;-)

Secondly, there are two populations of Canada geese, migratory and non-
migratory. The resident geese are the ones that **** all over every
patch of grass they can find.

Third, you might want to check again on that season. Here in NJ, we have
a resident season which is early, September, I think, before the
migratory geese fly through. The bag limits are different, I believe, as
the resident population is considered somewhat of a pest, but the
migratory geese have been under some population stress.

November sounds late for a resident season, but as I don't hunt anymore,
I'm not sure.

This should be good.

If they leave **** all over the ground, they're Canada geese. (Not, as I've
been told by a Canadian, 'Canadian geese'.)

Call these guys, and give them lots of money.

You know, in the quantum world, that is entirely possible. It's called
The Theory of Universal Wave Function. For each action taken (or each
event happening), there exits a Universe in which the action wasn't
taken or the event didn't happen. We don't see it because we
experience it - it's just a slight shift in reality. In theory, this
may be the key to FTL travel as we could shift from our solar system
to Omicron Persei 8 in the blink of an eye just by shifting our
position from here to there - it's an orientation feature - a nearby
universe shifting positionally so that Omicron Persei 8 is just a step
away. Other than a shift in galactic position, we wouldn't know the
difference because that universe is so close to ours that there is no
practical difference.

The one I favor is the Chaotic Inflation Theory - sometimes known as
the Bubble Universe Theory in which the observable universe becomes
too large to see meaning that it has to bud off at some point so we
can maintain current reality - kind of like the way an ameoba
duplicates itself. This is a never ending process because as it buds
off, it is basically a replica of the original, only slightly smaller
in space. Over time, slight changes get magnified, etc., etc., etc.

Aren't you glad you brought this up?

This should be good.

Ah - I see. So I look for the geese that poop on lawns?

Um...they all do that.

Yep - your right - it is September. Used to be first week in November
though a few years back. I've still got pelts and feathers from the
last season I hunted geeses (gooses?) which had to be seven years or
so ago.

That's the one thing I miss about deer season - I'm not active
anymore, but that was a great way to obtain pelts for fly tying. And
the meat went to that same butcher for placement out to needy
families.

Last buck I got dressed out at 146 pounds - big boy he was - nice 8
point rack, no spread to it though. I quit right after that because
it was a battle getting it out of the woods behind the house.

Figured that enough was enough.
