    T-Rex Rifle

    Yeeeaach! Trust me, I've had black bear once and it was terrible. I honestly can't describe the taste, but it's not like any other game meat I've ever had. Now think about it, black bears only eat carrion occasionally (when they can find it) and nuts and berries the rest of the time. I...

    T-Rex Rifle

    It's part of the lifestyle of the peoples who colonized Africa. There is no longstanding cultural tradition of hunting lion that could be comparable to Native Americans hunting buffalo. We all know what almost happened to the buffalo as a result of unbridled trophy hunting. In the 1870s...

    T-Rex Rifle

    Dammit foofoo! This is why I didn't want to respond to this topic! Am I lying? Are the many documented cases of man-eating lions lying? Why is it scary that I'm competent enough to utilize the wealth of information that lies at our fingertips? I may not be a world traveling big game hunter...

    T-Rex Rifle

    One other thing I'd like to note is that I'd be hesitant to even fire a gun like that T-rex contraption. Granted, we're talking quite a bit more rounds, but many old big game hunters who utilized "elephant rifles" tended to develop very poor eyesight later in life. It turns out that repeated...

    T-Rex Rifle

    Argh...I swore I wouldn't touch this one with a 10 foot pole but I just can't resist. First off, again, we don't know, as Paul Harvey says, the REST of the story. What I did find out is that about 70 humans a year are killed by lions in Tanzania alone, and between 200 and 400 humans a year are...

    bird on ice

    Is it on ice as in the freezer or the refrigerator? I've never frozen an entire bird, but I suppose if you just thaw it out it would be fine. What you want to do is boil some water in a stock pot large enough to fit the entire bird into. This will soften/weaken the feathers and allow the bird...

    Forest fires in Central Jersey!?

    http://blog.nj.com/timesupdates/2007/03/smoke_in_mercer_county_blamed.html Well not quite. On my way home I had to pick up dry cleaning, so I took a detour off of Route 130 into Hamilton proper (I live on the outer fringe near the Burlington County border) and I noticed a haze in the air...

    Oh come on Scott, now you're not only asking that they do their jobs and make life better for us, but you want them to fix the website too!? Sheesh, I'm telling you...some folks just want it all... :mrgreen: On a more serious note, I think I was a little too fired up with regard to this...

    Now THAT sounds like a stupid law. What about the head and shoulder mounts that are on my wall as we speak? Some of them (my grandfather's) are going on 40 years old! So in other words this law took down exactly the kind of slimeball it was supposed to. I rest my case.

    Well, my brother is working on a criminal justice degree but still has a year to go-does that count? By the way, could you stop with the "I know everything about you" statements? It's a little creepy. Why do you hate Lisa Jackson so much? I deal with her office on occasion-they seem like...

    Well said Jeff. As for the handgun thing, I wish this state were more like Vermont, but that being said I'm not about to test that law.

    Oh right, I forgot. Conservatives who break all the dumb laws are unsung heroes. I break laws all the time, I talk on my cell phone when I drive, I speed, I've taken the catalytic converter off of cars I've owned and gotten rid of other emissions crap in lieu of more power, I buy fireworks and...

    Illegal is illegal no matter how you look at it. Maybe he is a nice guy who was just trying to make some cash with antlers he had lying around-its still illegal. Just like not wearing orange is illegal and not getting a proper permit is illegal. I'm sure that he will receive NO jailtime and...

    Hiking Question for the Atco Area.

    No worse than any other South Jersey outpost with "no tell" motels. Not a bad neighborhood, just not high class...lol

    Took a ride through Collier's Mills on Sunday

    Took the truck and Sarah down to beautiful Lake Success again yesterday. I really need to get a quality digital camera because my cell phone just wouldn't have done the sunset justice. The wind off the lake was pretty chilly, but we got out and walked a few sandroads. The one thing I really...

    Brave hunters

    Let's put it this way. No one NEEDS to hunt to feed their family, but in order to feed one's family, an animal gets killed either way in most cases. It's very satisfying to spend a crisp morning in the woods and cap off the day by taking home some really excellent meat. Have you ever had a...

    Brave hunters

    There's no point in being outspoken in a pissing match-which is what most pro/anti-hunting arguments are. The 10% of people who are "anti" enough to be heard simply don't matter in the grand scheme of things. Just to clarify, Pinelandpaddler and Bob are not in that 10%. They are not...

    corzine are we happy yet?

    Corzine isn't a dictator so you can't pin this all on him. If he was a dictator, we'd probably be halfway out of this mess already. Instead he has to deal with a corrupt legislature and public that keeps re-electing them. Fact of the matter is the guy's got a damn good financial head on his...
