    Knife Sharpeners for the Unskilled

    This. Be careful with sharp tipped knives. You can easily ruin the tip with it. However, with some practice, you can get $2 knives as sharp as razors.

    Two party system: a necessary evil?

    Don't pro-create in January or February and DEFINITELY don't get married in October or November. Problem solved. I have numerous friends and a father who made one of these mistakes.

    Newsom signs bill banning single-use propane cylinders popular with campers

    The only thing I use the green ones for is my torch. And, I don't use my torch that often, mostly to light my pellets for my smoker. I buy one maybe every 2-3 years. I've bought the hoses and adapters to run all my propane stuff with my 5 or 1 gallon tanks.

    How do you pay for your gear?

    I'm going to revise my previous post. I buy whatever the hell I need whenever I want it. Credit card for Alaska miles.

    Ahh, fish fry and an old fashioned. Had that combo in September in Campbellsport when we went out for a Packer game.

    Cat carcass - what would do this?

    My vote would be birds. A bear would have swallowed that thing whole or drug it off. Coyotes would have done similar.

    Let’s talk carbon monoxide poisoning

    Do you have a small generator? I use a 500 W electric Brightown space heater and my 1K Yamaha generator. Works great.

    If you asked for a bourbon old fashioned in WI anywhere, you are going to get some strange looks. I believe, per capita, WI leads the nation in brandy consumption. Did you by chance see any of the Kronsage dorm houses? Spent my first 2 years in Turner House.

    Trail Access Restrictions - No UTVs = No Horses

    The cost and time of maintaining horses is at least 10-20 times that of an ATV, at least. My ATV is celebrating it's 30th birthday next year and I work on it maybe once a year and most of it is piddly stuff like oil changes, filter changes, light bulbs etc.

    What the closest face-to-face encounters you've had with animals while hunting?

    Another one. My deer stand in MO is attached to a large live oak. I could hear a squirrel coming up the back of the tree. He got to about eye level and came around the tree not 1 foot from my head. I said "Hi there" and he jumped out of the tree about 20 feet.

    I've logged 10000+ miles in the woods and have never found one. I guess CA must be different than the 10 states I've hunted in.

    Refurbish all done…!

    Dang, that looks nice. I have 2 A-Bolts from the late 80's that still are my main hunting rifles. I love them and they are tremendous shooters.

    What the closest face-to-face encounters you've had with animals while hunting?

    2 buddies and I were doing some preseason turkey scouting on a wildlife area in MO one year and just regrouped and were giving reports. We're all together not a yard or 2 from each other and hear some commotion. The sun was getting high and a doe running right into the sun comes screaming...

    Sconniebar also for good beers and cheap grub. That's where we all meet up for the pregame festivities.

    Calling all Badgers!!! Good places to eat in Madison by UW campus?

    My 2 next door hot girls both worked at Dotty's. I hope that's still around. Their burgers were epic. It was on Regent street not far from the stadium. Mickie's Dairy Bar for Breakfast too, I lived right above the old barber shop next door for a couple years. Greenbush Bakery is fantastic...

    If you like Greek gyros, hit Parthenon down on State St. Just off campus a couple blocks.
