Smart critters will circle back around to see what is following them. I've had bucks do that on me, and I've had a coyote do that to me when I was walking a dog. I can see how a smart buck would have you walking in circles! Greg -Original Message- From: Mercedes

[MBZ] ***SPAM*** RE: Something for the guys who need to avoid deer

I hunted with a friend up in Vermont who used that method. He was very successful with it. I still don't understand how he moved so fast with a foot of fresh, wet snow on the ground. Greg -Original Message- From: Mercedes [mailto:mercedes-boun...@okiebenz.com] On Behalf Of Curt Raymond

Re: [MBZ] OT more boars 

When I was first "on the job" one of my supervisors carried some sort of single-action revolver in a crossdraw holster, he was a lefty and could draw either hand. He was quite competent with it. Requirements tightened up on hardware pretty quick though. Greg -Original Message- From:

[MBZ] OT: NAS Pensacola

Since back in the 80s we had plenty of Saudi aviation cadets coming in, at that time they all had A-2 diplomatic visas. I expect they still do, and that the dip status is likely what allowed the shooter to legally purchase a gun. I always thought the status was unjustified then, and if indeed

Re: [MBZ] OT more boars 

IME the way to avoid any nasty fat result is to trim well before cooking. Also, hunting dangerous game with a single-shot muzzleloader is a no-go for me, even WITH a backup weapon, (which may be illegal in some jurisdictions). I think I would want a follow-up shot as quick as a pump or

Re: [MBZ] ***SPAM*** OT: Prank

Before he went to the sandbox for a year I coached him to be on the alert for danger from our allies, and I made sure he had at least a decent knife for some sort of weapon when not otherwise armed. Greg -Original Message- From: Mercedes [mailto:mercedes-boun...@okiebenz.com] On Behalf

[MBZ] ***SPAM*** OT: Prank

I gave my son in Honolulu a call early yesterday morning. He texted me back, "OMW to work, I'll call you when I get there." He calls me back, it's about 7:45 local time. He's onboard USCGC Kimball, one of our new National Security Class cutters. So I ask him if he's seen any Japanese

It's CBP, not ICE. I've heard them say that they are not paid to keep US Citizens out of the US. :-) -Original Message- From: Mercedes [mailto:mercedes-boun...@okiebenz.com] On Behalf Of OK Don via Mercedes Sent: Saturday, December 07, 2019 4:29 PM To: Mercedes Discussion List Cc: OK

Re: [MBZ] Getting on a cruise

What line? I've never been on a Caribbean cruise, only Alaska, Bermuda, and Across the pond twice. The Atlantic crossings on QE2 were the ideal cruising lifestyle IMO. And the inside passage was amazing for the views and comfort. The Atlantic can be rough even for an actual ocean liner like

[MBZ] ***SPAM*** RE: E63 for long trips?

Last time I tried a stupid trick like that on a couple-hundred mile trip I was seeing how fast I could do... I received a summons. I was young and even stupider than I am now. I explained to the cop that the road was empty, clear and dry, my Volvo 122S was in good shape with good tires. He

[MBZ] ***SPAM*** Was Parkinsons, now 50 yd. pistol

So a few decades back I was at our quarterly qual. We had completed most of the session when the instructor (NOT a pal of mine) told all the shooters to step back from the firing line except for me. He replied to my WTF? question by explaining that the 4" bbl. .357 personally owned revolver I
