    Warm weather has no connection to their size. Last Jan WI had temps below freezing for most of Jan and a lot of that time, it was below zero. Bitches were big and nasty as usual last spring.

    People who do not list their ebay products correctly. I came across a pack of 150 grain Magnus Stinger Buzzcuts for $29. But the ad had a stock photo from the Magnus website, not the actual package in hand of the seller. I asked for pictures, the guys sends pictures of 100 grain Black Hornets. You live in Arizona, the information is literally in your hands. How to you post it wrong?

    People who make **** up when they don't know the real reason and have too much pride (or maybe not enough sense) to ask.

    Coyotes....... I finally got one. I shoot coyotes out my front door whenever I can. My dog, Jones, lets out a low growl and alerts me to animals trespassing on our land. Last month he did just that. When I opened the door to poke the rifle out, my small dog, Zeva, went blasting out and scared 3 of them off. I took a couple of running shots but got nothing. Yesterday morning I was online posting with you fine folks and was alerted again. This time I commanded both dogs to stand back while I dispatched the varmint. About a 108 yard shot and was a small female that will not be having pups this year.

    My squirrel trap line have been very successful this year, except the hawks and crows have figured out there are free meals, makes it a little messy taking them out of the trap.

    Heard numbers on the radio today that in the last three years 75,000 people have died from influenza A + B. When’s the last time any of have seen on the news we lost another 500 people this week to the flu?

    https://pjmedia.com/trending/fact-c...-dead-in-u-s-before-declaring-h1n1-emergency/

    https://www.cnn.com/2009/HEALTH/10/24/h1n1.obama/index.html [October 24, 2009]
    ^
    "Since the H1N1 flu pandemic began in April [2009,] millions of people in the United States have been infected, at least 20,000 have been hospitalized and more than 1,000 have died, said Dr. Thomas Frieden, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. "
    _____________________________

    So after H1N1 first appeared in the US in April 2009; the Obama administration waited over 6 months and 1100 deaths before declaring a National Emergency. Were CNN and Congress screeching non-stop about the lack of action? Hardly.

    Again; I am not buying into this hype but millions are. Mass hysteria is a much larger threat to public health and even the Nation than is the virus.

    What the hell is with GM especially Chevy pickups. I was looking online picking out a truck, 99% of the pickups do not have running boards.
