Never good to cut a farm road you're not fixing - well, maybe if someone's having a heart attack. But that's the only acceptable excuse that comes to mind.

I keep a herding dog whistle on the string with my regular dog whistles and have been deviling the pee out of the black-bellies and squealers with it. Sometimes carry a duck call, too, but an extended single quack series seems the only thing apt to draw them this time of year. Wish I'd had it yesterday to try the teal with but didn't. Will no doubt make a habit of having one in my pocket well before the migrant bluewings show in late August.

I predict that it's going to be epic. Be very very careful this season because if you're not careful you'll shoot six or seven birds with one shot and put yourself over limit. (eight or nine if you use 3.5" shellls)
It's going to be epic!

The great and famous Jehler once told me that you can't apply logic to politics/govt. This is one of them cases where he's right.

The Libertarians are the ultimate in the look busy, do nothing. While the philosophy has a fairly large following, they almost never win anything. I left them decades ago when I realized all that L stood for was loser.
What's so frustrating is that if the libertarians would run in the Democrat and Republican primaries, they could win and have a real positive impact as a few high profile examples have done. Instead it is the party of has-been's and never-will-be's. They exemplify the great skill of every backseat driver that is afraid to take the wheel.

They've tried and the establishment rejected them. Like Ron Paul and his son Rand. We'll see, but republicans have become democrat-lite on most issues, especially spending.
I think they'll continue to build the party especially among younger folks.
So far the R's are really crapping their pants with the excellent opportunity they have to make changes
