latest adventure

I went hunting again, this time for deer. I loved it. Shot two dear. Yes, I enjoyed pulling the guts out. It was like biology class. I wish Jason had been there. We could have been like, "Look, at the liver just fall right out when I cut through the diaphragm!" Or, "So that's what a punctured lung looks like!"

Lots of people told me shooting my first deer and looking into its dying eyes would be tramatic. I knew it wouldn't be. And it wasn't. I did have fun playing with the deer before rigor mortis set in, though.

Next up - wild hog and spring turkey.

Now I have a good reason to go to Cabela's.

Callous insensitivity to animal rights = the Texan way.

You guys are hilarious.

Seriously, though, I had a lot of fun. I am forced to look for more adult sports now that my injured knee signals the weather and old age is creeping up on me.

Pretty soon I'll be playing raquetball.

You got to disect a deer? Lucky. I don't know if I've ever disected anything larger than a fetal pig. After disecting a fetal pig, I could see not being tramatized by shooting a deer. Anyway, thanks for keeping me updated on stuff I'm missing out on.

Jason, well you don't have to miss out on it. You could start a shooting club after you finish your marathon kick. Or you could just move down here. Did I just say that?
