More times than I can count with vechiles. Did it also with the Farmall A alot

I think Muslims are a problem here and will be a huge one if their colonization isn't stopped. People that abuse women the way they do have no business in Western countries.

Condolences to the family and all that knew him. A great man!

A few years ago, back when I lived up north, I was checking sable traps and one trap was gone, a sable got caught in a #0 leghold and twisted off the wire it was attached with. I followed his tracks for maybe 3 miles, which took a while because it was in old taiga forest with lots of fallen big trees, and 2-3 feet of snow He would find a tree, try to hide under it, then pop out on the other side from under the roots or trunk and move on, then find another place with lots of fallen, criss-crossed trees and try to hide again, and I had to check lots of such spots. His tracks came to the edge of the forest and continued into a massive open peatbog, and then a set of fox tracks joined in, so I figured the fox had probably found him already, and it was getting dark, so I went back. The next day my ex went there on a snowmachine through the bog (in the Vasyugan mire along the Yugan river, terrain is a maze of raised bogs and taiga forests), found the spot where I had given up, followed the tracks for another half a mile maybe and saw they turned back into the forest and disappeared under yet another big uprooted Siberian pine. He dug out the sable which was stuck in the roots and frozen solid.
When I skinned it, I noticed that its fur was pretty short and lackluster and he had a scar across his waist, and his lower belly was a complete mess, his weenie was out and the fur was all discolored from the leaking urine/ammonia. He must have gotten caught in a bunny snare (although very few people even set bunny snares there, because there are few areas with good bunny habitat), managed to twist off and lived like that for at least a few months, and eventually managed to get rid of the snare (I got him in February, and his fur was bad, meaning that he got caught before fully molting into the winter coat).

A chronically unlucky animal. I kept the tanned pelt.

Well, I heard the same thing. Do you have any XL winter rats?

What are some of the best products to purify water for drinking when you have no power?

What works best for small amounts of water, that is easily portable?

What works best for large amounts of water purification, for every day use, over an extended period of time?

For more sausage making equipment and spices look at the Sausage Maker in Buffalo.

Trapdog - the propane is delivered by truck with a long hose to the tanks behind the house. The metering system on the truck is very modern - but that does necessarily mean accurate. However based upon the gauge before the delivery, the metering system seems accurate.

Our house is not well insulated or efficient. We have made it as energy efficient as possible. The new house will be larger, but we expect it to use no more energy than this house.

Your house must be very well insulated. What have you done for thermal efficiency?

Looks like Sammy Hagar...with Cha-Cha Bingos

Correct me if I'm wrong, here.
There are Russian athletes competing but aren't under the Russian flag since Russia invaded Ukraine. I guess there aren't many.
If one of them wins a gold medal, which national anthem do they play?

AI is like nuclear weapons. If you want to stay a world power and not be destroyed, you have to have better AI than your adversaries.

It varies, but when I have questioned various AIs, they tell me there's close to a 20% chance they will significantly harm or even wipe out humanity. AI may make things better for most people too. I don't think it was worth the risk to have it, but it's to late now.

Right now it’s my granddaughter nova. Pretty much loves everything outdoors related. Trapping, fishing, mushroom hunting, etc

Triplett fur. Can't remember either Seneca or Racine Missouri.
