Gotta keep up with the young 'ems, ya know. 😉

It's always nice to state the obvious for those whose minds work really slow. 🙄

No. Permission lets you shoot anywhere on the property, as long as no other possibly occupied building owned by someone else is located within a 1/4 mile of the spot you shoot from. IOW, if you are shooting along or near the property line and the neighbor's house is less than 440 yds. away on the other side, it would be illegal. You must be 1/4 mile from ANY building. Under A.R.S. § 17-309(A)(4), it is unlawful to discharge a firearm while taking wildlife within one-fourth mile of an occupied farmhouse or other residence, cabin, lodge or building without permission of the owner or resident.

Just yer standard 'ol cougar, eh?

I think it was at least 20 years ago. If you ever see him again, ask him about it.

Duwane rolled his on a sidehill and the ATV somehow rolled over him, crushing his face/head.

Eleven alumni of my high school perished at the WTC that day. There's a special monument at the school dedicated to their memory.

ATVs have caused a few serious accidents. It's been quite a while since my co-author of HOW TO HUNT COUES DEER, Duwane Adams, told me the tale of his accident that nearly killed him. From what he told me, it sounded like his face was about like Bill the Roofer's after his encounter with a forklift. If I recall, Duwane was in the backcountry and needed to be airlifted out by a chopper.

Was this the one....

That's probably not all she had.

Sorry to hear that. I agree about knowing too many people, etc. My best friend of 40+ years who lives in MD was just diagnosed and treated for bladder cancer. He'll know next month if the treatment was successful. Ironically, I thought lung cancer could be my downfall at some point, but now it appears something elsewhere is greatly amiss. I have a tele-conference with my primary scheduled for Mon, afternoon, and I'll likely be told to proceed to ER post haste. But after spending a month straight in the hospital and a rehab facility in March, I'm not excited about another visit. 😡

Read every post. Thanks again guys.

Perhaps somehow related to the effect of C-19 on production for this most recent one??? 🤷‍♂️

Nice!!! 👍

Probably more than you realized. 🙄

Yup, aware of that. I mentioned the "tap" in my earlier message. The diuretics do help with feet and ankles, though.

All good thoughts. And I somewhat agree. 👍 My worst fear is covid for me would be like an immediate death sentence. I have really bad COPD that has been exacerbated with additional lung scaring from Mycobacterium avium complex and most recently pneumonia, all due to an immune system compromised by long-standing prednisone use. As a result, I'm already on oxygen 24/7. That said, I know I'm going to have to give in. It's just a matter of when.

This is a snippet I posted elsewhere about my current situation... "Problem right now with me is I should be in the hospital. I have a bad case of edema, where about everything in my body is retaining water even though I'm using a diuretic. I look sort of pregnant now because my abdomen is filled with water as well and likely needs to be drained with a tap. From my research in recent days, it appears the water in my gut is the result of more serious underlying issues. But...I'm resisting a visit to the ER, knowing they will admit me and my odds of getting C-19 rise a bunch. If I get it, I'm dead man walking." 😠 To add...the water in my abdomen, named ascites, is often caused by congestive heart failure or a problem such as cirrhosis of the liver (not likely) or cancer of an organ. etc. I underwent surgery two years ago for colon cancer and was diagnosed cancer-free at that time. So until I give in and go to the ER, it's all just a guessing game right now. It's a real pain not being able to do the simplest of chores, though. 🤬 So there you have it. In the meantime, I'll just keep at...

Hey guys, I appreciate all the well wishes. I'm having some problems, but as Mark Twain once said, "The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated." 🤣 It's just tough to get old. I just wish it had taken longer.

Was this you at the party....

Looking to contact Daniel Pavone regarding a purchase he made from me on eBay.

Yup, thanks to you, Tom. 👍

Found him. He called me a bit ago thanks to a member here.
