Impudent youth and storage freezers

[protege]

Yeah, that was a bit uncalled for, not to mention

Seriously though, venison is good stuff. It's great in chili and Bambi burgers. Throw some spices in there, and it's good eatin'

Finally, the woman snapped at V, "Now you listen, young lady! I'm 40 years old and I expect you to treat me with some more respect!"

V replied calmly, "Ma'am, I have children older than you are. I think you owe me some respect."

I LOVE it!!!

Treating someone with respect does not equal giving them whatever they want no matter how unreasonable.

I live in Emporia. I've spent most of my time here in the eastern half of the state.
Not sure I like your name all that much. I'm a K-state alum

I'm headed to KU in August.

I had to have a friend tell me what the hell 'rock chalk' meant.

(You wouldn't BELIEVE the people who are pestering me to get them basketball tickets. sheesh) During the NCAA next year, I expect to be boarded up in my house with supplies, never daring to venture out to Mass Street.

Back on topic - perhaps the deer in the OP had not yet been completely butchered? Just a thought.

Nope, all butchered. Crazy lady.

I once saw a guy from KU wearing a shirt that said, "Our Coach Can Eat Your Coach."

Mangino's a good coach... we shall see how he fares against Bo this season...

Hee, I have a lot of animal stories that happened to me.

The snake in the Christmas tree.
A snake decided to curl up in teh Christmas tree we had in a storage shed. We lug the tree at night to the house, and next mornign was going to set it up when I noticed something moving. I thought, "The cat isn't in the house." Then I saw the snake, and of course I ran into the room that I can't escape from. ANd mom gets her gun and starts shooting at the tree. It's really funny now.

The dumped Boar
Someone dumped a baby boar in our yard in Aug. We called the Animal Control about it and they said they would get back. No one got back. The damn thing fisrt was the size of a cat, then size of a rottweiller, then a size of a calf. Finally in April I call Animal control again and they gave us numbers to some hunters who set up traps for the thing, and one day brought their dogs. And the boar escaped and the dogs hunted it.

Part of the thing is we live on 2 acres of land and most of it is brush. The boar had a nice place to stay but at night it would go to our front yard and our dog would bark at it. Mom would go out and shoot at it. Neighbors, relatives, friends would tell us, "If you kill it and fix it, we'll eat it." Yeah, thanks for helping in killing it in the first place, morons. This reminds me of the fable of the little red hen.

Why couldn't she just turn it into jerky?
Venison makes for some tasty jerky.

*stomach growls*

I need my gun.

Hmmm... Bambi Burger...

This reminds me of the fable of the little red hen.

Isn't that the one where the wolf carries the hen in a bag with rocks and the hen drops the rocks and finally gets out of the bag and when the wolf gets home, the bag's empty ?

I can't take credit for that--when I was a boy scout, our troop's scoutmaster came up with that. What was funny, is while we were driving to camp one winter...he narrowly avoided a deer. Several of us saw that, and when dinner (burgers) was being prepared, we started calling it roadkill. Interesting coincidence...I hope! Nearly 20 years later, he's still getting grief over that

We've had to call animal control for sick Swans and Ducks that wander onto our property and won't leave. They don't actually do anything about the swans tho, except give us the number for the 'swan lady' who takes care of them. We've had her out here twice to get swans taken care of (no, not killed!). She's nice.

No, the one where the red hen (and her chicks) ask the cat, fox, others who will:
help her plant the seeds
water the seeds
harvest the wheat
bake the bread

And the other animals answer: Not I.

Then she's about the eat the bread, and she says, "who will help me eat the bread" and of course the other lazy-bones say "I will" and she says "tough shit, you didn't help me when I planted the seeds, etc.)

There are a bunch of loose dogs that show up, mostly to chase and kill cats. ANimal control won't catch them. They tell us that either tie them up so they can haul them away or trap them and take them to Animal Control. No way.
