    Where the hell was that Dundee? Not your back yard I am sure.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!

    Sit out in a rocking chair on the porch with it over your knees EeeBees! It won't help the withdrawal but your reputation will be enhanced

    Well I wasn't doing anything with birds and dogs if it is of any consolation EeeBees. I was just out hoping to do it in the wind, the rain and the cold. 3 degrees with a real feel on -7. Still do it again in a heartbeat mind.

    Saw a couple of mallards but they flew off from the creek when we left.

    Dog lept off the bike to chase a hare on the way home but gun was unloaded after leaving the mai mai and she was given the command "Leave it" and stopped the chase and on the bike again so she is in my good books again after the other nights fuck up
