I’ve been told that Fruit Roll-Ups evolved from the solidified end product of fruit juice production that was then sold to hunters as deer bait.Hungry hunters began munching on the bait out of boredom, word got back to the juice manufacturer who refined it to remove the stems and seeds (that you don’t need), and make it palatable for children (a bigger market than hunters) and the rest is history.
Born on a mountain top in Tennessee, Greenest state in the land of the free. Raised in the woods so’s he knew every tree, Killed him a bear when he was only three. Davy, Davy Crockett King of the Wild Frontier.-Ballad of Davy Crockett-Important note: A croquette is entirely different, and is more like a potsticker than a politicker.Bear hunting is optional, but be aware that the bear will be going over the mountain to see what he can see.
I’m sorry; “we” are not in Oregon. And where I am, bears usually are not (except for rare cases). I don’t favor anise-flavored Hitler-style mustaches either, being more drawn to the yeros tou vounou style and of the grey age. Anise-flavored liquor, however, such as ouzo, is good. I don’t know if bears drink ouzo.
@3hourtourOn the pheromone front, or that’s what I suspect anyway, we’ve had a couple of female cats who would pull out of the laundry basket and huff my t-shirts. And all female cats seem to like me a lot.My wife (47th anniversary in less than 2 weeks) has always been a cat person. Coincidence? I think not.
Hikers that believe pepper spray and wearing little bells on their clothing when in an area that has bears will ward them off; please be advised that if you see scat and it smells like pepper spray and little bells in it; it means bears are in the area.
P.S. It wasn’t the 6 y.o. comments in F&S online that caught my eye, it was the HILLBILLY DELUXE (after all, Arkansas used to be The Bear State and, if you believe Al Capp, Jed Clampett and the media coverage of Bill Clinton, we know plenty about hillbillies too).
Bears will eat you.That was once a Tee-shirt by John Allison.It is gone now.But he has brought back “Death Has A Bunny”, and “I Am Your Secret Scary Friend”, so that’s something.

As you hunt the bear, the bear will hunt you.
Beware the bear … and the geisha with the Hitler upper lip … beware, beware … it tickles when she kisses!!!

“The Puritans hated bear baiting, not because it gave pain to the bear, but because it gave pleasure to the spectators.”
Thomas Babington Macaulay
They also hated anise and cinnamon.

Sometimes you get the bear…sometimes the bear gets you. Had a few visit my back deck over the years; so far I’ve not been got!

Yes. I did. Don’t you hail from somewhere on the upper left coast? Is selection of the most utile bear bait a ponderous issue up there?

I have no need or desire to hunt the bears, but they better keep their paws off my licorice. I get a tad cranky when my candy is pawed.
