    Early Location Reference

    I just rode down 12th street yesterday:-) I always wondered why that wide grassy strip was there along the east side.Wonder why they mow it and don't let it grow up?

    Out Bogging

    I have never seen hunters lay deer on anything like this? Usually they gut the deer where it lays on the ground so as to save weight transporting it to a waiting vehicle.Then when they get it home they usually yank it off the ground by the neck or upside down with legs spread according to...

    Rattlesnake

    I think rats look much shinier also due to the keeled scales where racers look Flat Black.Also rats get much bigger and move differently.Racers kink their bodies when they move no doubt a habit acquired from so much climbing.Racers flow much more smoothly and faster.Also if you grab the snake...
