    Star "BUCKS" coffee

    pa, no I don't really talk like that, but I've got a few friends who do. I kind of like the fact that different regions have different accents...that way we know who the revenooers are. ;) We like to make fun of New Yorkers ("You know where izza da cat?") and...

    Star "BUCKS" coffee

    Yes, my Kentucky brethren are almost as good at running an eat-til-you-puke establishment as Hoosiers. Almost. ;)

    Are your weekends worth it?

    I should mention that I neglected to include the increased hours...they'd go from part time to full time. If you include the extra hours, the pay increase is actually about 230%. :eek: I really can't go into details (confidentiality and all that ;) ), but the part time pay is less than a...

    Has anyone heard from Nut?

    I heard from him the weekend before last...they're doing well. He's getting a little stir-crazy in the popup, but otherwise he's fine. No broken toes recently, the kids are working for the summer (one of them's doing sheep :eek: ), and the job is apparently going well. In summation, super! :D

    Are your weekends worth it?

    I'm having a hiring problem that just fascinates me. Without going into specifics, I am offering a full-time job in my department that would represent a 67% increase in pay over what another department's part-time employees make. We're not talking lots and lots of money here, but it's more...

    Bucks, bucks and more bucks!

    TBone, in my neck of the woods (which is not too close to yours ;) ) they'll stay put as long as they're not disturbed too much and there's plenty of water nearby through the summer. I've seen the same dinky buck following the same path in the same area 3 years in a row. But the deer here are...

    Roflmao

    Never tell a hardheaded man that he can't do something. Now he'll stay in the woods day and night until he tags one. :D

    Another Graduation

    That girl will be skinning deer and guiding turkey hunts by the time she's 8. ;)

    Hoosiers: Fenced hunting for Indiana?

    Yeah, I've read a couple of theories on that. Some say that the mule deer move out because of development and so forth and the whitetails move in because they're better able to adapt to fragmented habitat. But I've also seen some people who seem to believe that the muleys move out because of...

    Hoosiers: Fenced hunting for Indiana?

    Tom, no, there never were mule deer in IN or KY. ;) But there weren't always as many whitetails out west, either...how'd they get there? As I understand it, the sunset date is intended just like any other similar legislative sunset: it gives the DNR & the state an "out" if things go badly. If...

    Hoosiers: Fenced hunting for Indiana?

    I guess they don't make epic journeys as a rule, but they do move around over time. I'm sure that poor feeding conditions would hasten that. They certainly move in more than a 300-acre circle, depending on conditions. Isn't that one of the big complaints regarding mule deer habitat...that the...

    New Career Choices

    Ignoring my talents (or lack thereof ;) ) and money issues, I would probably pick something like wildlife biology. I also like the idea of being a F&W officer, except that by definition they're on duty during the big seasons (i.e., firearms deer season), which I assume would put a cramp on...

    Hoosiers: Fenced hunting for Indiana?

    We've debated this topic endlessly here in the past, so I'll leave that alone and just say that Hoosiers will soon have a chance to voice their opinions on the subject. Via email from the IN DNR:

    Hunting Trips and Gas Prices

    A lot of people identify diesel with black, stinky exhaust. Even if it's proven technically better for the environment than gasoline exhaust, it'll be a hard sell on many people for just that reason. Then there's the $4000-$5000 upcharge for a diesel engine. :eek:

    Hunting Trips and Gas Prices

    You're right, it doesn't add a whole lot overall. But I would add that I'm sure that's exactly what the oil monkeys are hoping you'll think...it's just a few dollars, right? A nickel here, a dime there, and their net worth goes up a few million each time. But I haven't cut back on my driving...

    Montana Stream Access Dispute

    That makes sense, Buzz, thanks. You're right about at least some of the local landowners; there's a few that have pay docks or whatever and they certainly try their best to keep access to a minimum. There's also those who buy a lot along the stream and don't want anyone to "disturb their...

    Montana Stream Access Dispute

    I'm curious about what constitutes "ordinary high water mark," and just what that designation entails. Along the Ohio River there are LOTS of river camps, various factories, etc. that sit in the flood plain. The local horse track gets surrounded by flood waters just about every year; they have...

    Episode III: Revenge of the Sith

    Sounds like they're keeping up with tradition! :D I still remember everyone oo-ing and ahh-ing at the effects in the first 3...now I watch them with the kids and cringe. ;) ILM has come a LONG way in the last 30 years.

    Packing out a buffalo???????

    Hey, Elky, that's great! I would love to do that someday. As to your original question of getting them out, I can think of several options...large tractor, flatbed truck, airlift.... ;)
