    You be the POLITICIAN

    One of the major problems (if you can call it that) is that Hospitals are required to treat all people who show up on their doorstep: they can't turn away a pregnant illegal who's in labor, or an uninsured worker who's cut off his finger. Those costs get added into the bill that you receive, or that the hospital tries to bill to the Insurance company, increasing your premium. Should Hospitals turn away people who don't have insurance or the cash to pay for their procedure? Whose going to pay for their treatment? Could your conscience handle turning away a sick child who would die without treatment if you knew the kid would wrack up a million dollars in unsupported bills? So, instead of getting hammered with inflated hospital bills, or a huge insurance premiums, why not socialize medicine? Everyone needs treatment (preferably preventative). The nightmare stories on Fox news about socialized medicine are very different than what 99% of the population experiences in those countries. Besides, we aren't those countries and we can learn from their mistakes and make our own decisions on cost-benefit. Even if you've got the coin to pay cash for premium health care at a for-profit private hospital, you'd probably be paying only slightly more than what the costs will be in the next decade as the Recession worsens, less people have health insurance (but all need health care), and those with insurance are burdened even further.

    global warming

    Since it seems like you guys get so excited about disproving global warming every winter (Northern Hemisphere), I thought you could look and see what the folks down under were experiencing last year: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Early_2009_so...ralia_heat_wave http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/November_2009...ralia_heat_wave and this year: http://www.bom.gov.au/climate/current/mont...s/summary.shtml I wonder if they'd agree with you all?

    global warming

    here's another limey and what he thinks: , he lay's it all out better than I can. since I never called anyone any bad names, I assume you don't mean me. In the scope of the impact on the scientists, none of those in the hacked emails have been sacked, and none have been charged with any crimes regarding the science. If you make it through the videos you'll see that these 'scandals' are really just a bunch of skeptics and deniers beating their drum to build up public outrage and (mis) direct it at a bunch of people who are just trying to do their jobs and report what they see in their data.

    LH Browning Illusion

    I'm selling my 2007 Browning Illusion. I just upgraded to an X-force. The bow is set at 65lbs (60-70), 30" draw (27-30"). I took most of the components off to put on the new bow, but I put on a good flipper rest, and will throw in a free release. On Tucson Craigslist w/pics: http://tucson.craigslist.org/spo/1543158509.html I'll entertain any offers from CW'ers. Tyson

    This was the view from my back porch...

    It might have been in buffel grass - if so welcome to the future of our new flammable Sonoran-African savannah! The El-Nino is probably being dried out because of the cold North Pacific we are experiencing right now: http://ffden-2.phys.uaf.edu/645fall2003_we...undson/enso.htm

    Deformed Lion Skull

    My father-in-law killed an awesome lion (spot-n-stalk, with a bow!!) many years ago that had a broken Jugal (whatever you call that outer arch the jaw bone fits into). It appeared that a deer musta kicked him in the face at some point, but he'd recovered and healed it over... It really hurt his overall score though because of the compression of the lateral measurement. T

    Sighting in

    Measure all your distances (peep, rest, arrow angle, etc) to make sure there is no change between shooting days. Make sure the arrows are paper tuned. If there isn't any movement, its you. I think its your anchor point. Last, do whatever Randy Ulmer tells you to do: http://www.bowhunter.com/bowhuntermagtv/BHTV_DOdescriptions/

    I got so sick of not getting shots (well, screwing up stalks, but that's another story) at Coues I committed myself to Muleys this December. The day after Christmas, a day before my 31st Birthday, I went out with my father-in-law and spotted this guy. I got a morning shot while he was romancing a half dozen does. First shot was bad, but it slowed him down, he ran over a low ridge but the does never spooked. I looped around wide and glassed the next cut over trying to find him, but he'd laid down right beneath me 40 yards away. He got up and went 40 more yards and laid down again. I was able to get into 25 yards, and stuck a couple more in him to seal the deal. First shot at 8, had him in the truck by 11! Now the monkey is off my back, I've got all of '10 to hunt, and I'm going back after those grays! Thanks to stalkincoues (Christian) for the Range Snap, its been a great tool! Tyson

    OUCH!!!

    ugh... that sucks. I've had a cam come off mid shot, the arrow broke in half as it crossed the riser, fortunately it missed me, the cable held on and kept the cam and string from ripping through my chest. Hope none of those x-force type bows ever come apart on someone, those split limbs and hyper tension kinda make me nervous!!!

    He's not very tall, only like 11 inches off his G3s, but he's 24 inside, 26 outside. His skull looks a lot like a Texas whitetail now that its cleaned up...

    White deer of Wisconsin

    These deer are not being selected based on any competitive advantage; Albinism is a disorder that comes with alot of other genetic damage and risk of illness and disease. The increasing population of these deer is probably due to the fact that they are not being selected (i.e. killed) by natural predators (wolves or lions), or human hunters.
