excuse me while i start drinking coffee again.
Big didnt take any of those pictures. He is fking with you guys. He is an evil *******.
Those exact pics are all over the internet.
Why, that rascal!!!
Being beaten to death with a dead rabbit while hanging by his tenders would be too good for him!
Grayfox had her ****s smashed yesterday and needs laser surgery to clear accumulating protein chains off her replacement lens in one eye.
Me too brother, which is why I look so much younger than I really am.
Sending you free hugz brother, but he says you have to promise to not try and smell his hair..........

Awright! lds';dk <-- Go away, Fuzzy.
Restart: Big gifted me a neato single-shot thingy. Looks like a glass cigarette. Just this morning, I discoveredasfewe <-- Fuzzy again. OK. Now she is on my lap. I am used to that. I type around her with no trouble... even wrote a novel with her on my lap.
Where was I? Oh, yeah. I discovered something this morning when just for the heck of it, I decided I would try SCUBA skip-breathing while toking. Skip breathing is no longer done by any diver anymore, but I was diving in 1963. I knew I would not get a double-rate CO2 buildup that would make me drown if I stayed in my garage while toking.
To skip-breathe takes discipline. You learn how to ignore air-hunger to a greater extent. You take a deep breath, hold it until you become slightly uncomfortable, then let out ONE THIRD of your air and instantly take another deep breath. Rinse and repeat.
My result? Where normally I would get perhaps 3 hits on the single-shot thingy, it turned into more than 40. My measure was to stand in the perfect, still air this morning and after taking the hit, I'd exhale a third and instantly inhale as much as I could.
Each exhale was visible a minimum of FIFTEEN TIMES. I got three "initial" hits, so my "refresh/rehit" total was amazing.
And the result can kinda be seen in the winding way this post has been written. HOOWEE.
"And yea! All the people threw camel schit. For in those days, confetti was not yet invented."
FOOTNOTE: Back in the Olden Days, divers had one tank. So to stretch your bottom time, you learned the skip-breathing technique. Ten extra minutes at 60' could nail you that grouper. But a lot of divers died. The technique screws up your oxygen/carbon dioxide ratio. You could simply pass out if you did it too long. Not good sixty feet down.

Morning OFC! Major wind event last night and continuing into this morning. I hate it...makes it feel 10 times colder than it is. Mountains are getting much needed snow.
@GW, I have always looked much younger than I actually am. But lately I have noticed wrinkles have taken over and I am starting to look like a prune..
@walt, I was always able to make my air last longer than any other divers in my group. So, I never had to even think about trying to conserve my air supply. Other divers would start to signal low on air and I always had over 1/2 a tank left. Probably cause I am 5' 6" and skin and bone.

Second crow thingy was when I was up a tree deer hunting in Northrin Floriduh. A HUGE racket of crows suddenly descended all around me. All screaming and chasing an owl. The owl landed about 20 feet away and tried to hide in a crotch.

Crows vs Great Horned Owl
They are mortal enemies with no peace treaty in sight.
why?
at night, the Crows perch in trees to sleep.
while the Great Horned Owl hunts
A Great Horned Owl will silently swoop into the crow's bedroom and snatch&grab a sleeping crow.
It will bite the head off most times.
Rinse & repeat a few more times.
Come pre-dawn, the crows awake to lessened ranks and the sight of their headless comrades
surrounding their roost tree.
that is why the Great Horned Owl is dubbed "The Prince of Darkness"
What you witnessed that day in the tree was "Payback's a *****!!!"
I'm surprised crows don't have a sentry bird doing night watch duties.
During the day, the murder will always send a scout bird to investigate
and call back when they are hunting.

I was roaming the interwebs and landed on a fishing site for upstate NY.
This guy = PoPo and does not like the fragrance of the Devil Weed.
He would probably hate visiting a few of your basements.... haha
good thing I can smell a pig from a mile away
better thing that he can only smell me from 1/2 mile away !!!!

Perspective,
New York State has had a weed program in place for about 5 years. There is a dispensary 3 miles from my work site. Depending on which way the wind blows or how still and cold the mornings are , it smells like high grade skunk when I pull into work. Got so bad that I had to notify the company their ups and freight packages passed through the dispensary over hrs ago and still smell.
Sometimes when I'd open the overhead door, I knew exactly where they been before. So point in place is , nys has had a medical program in place for a very long time now. Our state leadership said it's only available through pill or edible. What does one really think happens to all the " extra " the state pays for and doesn't distribute ?
I know there are also farm dispensaries in the outer sticks besides rural getting paid to operate at a loss.
My family are law enforcement, military veterans and RN , kinda also know what's real.

Damm, if I worked there I would consider the stench as a perk !!!

Two things: I saw blue jays attack a dove until it fell out of the tree in my yard (I cooked and ate it).
The other thing: I never knew about the swoop in at night like a horror-movie monster to bite off heads.
EWWWW.
All this time I felt sorry for the owl. Now I feel like a crow when I see a politician or talking head.
