Well, my brother is off to the wilds of Idaho to pursue the mighty elk. This is an annual outing for him and a couple of his hunting pals. I sure wish I could go with them, but I"m too fat, too old, too sick. Damn!! Maybe he'll send me a chunk of prime elk rib.

Debates aside, (I've decided not to watch them) how could anyone in their right mind even consider voting for the super-waffler, kerry? Looking back on his record in the Senate, where he has voted for at least 350 tax increases and voted against every defensive system we've got, you would have to be a complete lunatic or a communist to consider him for anything more powerful than dog catcher. His running mate, ultra liberal edwards, has a similar dismal record. How could the democrats remotely consider these two idiots as nominees?

hillary is currently trying to shove a bill through the senate that would ban gun sales at gun shows. If she is successful, you can kiss your right to sell or give your guns to anyone, including relatives goodbye. This is exactly how the anti-gun nuts killed private ownership of firearms in Britain, Canada and Australia. Call your senator and tell him to vote against senate bill 1807. Those of us who are enjoying second amendment rights MUST win every one of these nefarious manuevers by the nuts. Losing one of these battles means a long, hard road back to freedom. Keep in mind that the foounding fathers did not write the second amendment to create a nation of rabbit hunters or target shooters. That amendment was written so the people could protect themselves from government pukes like hillary, shumer and feinstein. Our currrent federal gun laws are an almost direct copy of the gun laws written by another super patriot in Germany in 1938. His name was Adolph Hitler.

As summer drifts slowly astern, I once again realize that I am living at least 1000 miles too far north. I hate it when the temperture plummets down below 80. Soon, I'll have to start wearing shoes and socks and pants and long sleeved shirts. BOOOOO!!
