    It’s not about the kill, it’s about the pursuit. And then the kill.Still, it’s nice not having to worry about where your next meal is coming from.

    I wonder if in the next few years we will see a dramatic increase in “dowager’s hump” more from this than from osteoporosis.

    Completely unbelievable, unfortunately.

    Talking bears – that I can accept.

    The smartphone addicted actually taking a walk outside of a town?

    Sorry, but that goes beyond straining incredulity. It utterly obliterates it.

    Well, not usually, anyway. You really do NOT want to get crosswise with one, that’s for sure.

    For those addicted to their social media streams, I have ZERO sympathy. A former supervisor of mine used to spend 50% of each work day sitting in front of his PC checking his … until some unknown employee made a complaint about it. He was fired, and now the company uses a monitoring software program to report on the uses we make of our internet connection during work hours. Now, I try to figure out which IDIOT I work with was stupid enough to report the guy, so I can get one of those random noise generating prank devices and plant one near the idiot’s desk.(I might have to buy a couple dozen) We can’t check our emails more than once per day, nearly every media site is tagged, or a report gets sent to some upper management idiot. Trying to look busy for a full eight hours everyday is now work in itself.

    What I’m waiting for are contact lenses that project the text characters on the retina of the eye. Like Google Glasses, except less noticeable.

    -We are lucky that bears really don’t hunt us down ot eat

    There seems to be some disagreement about that here in Central Florida. Been three attacks on people (who happened to be walking their dogs in their neighborhoods, not out in genuine ‘bear country’. And probably the bears were actually hunting the dogs, but one of them got several mouthfuls of a woman’s arm.)

    Which is why the state agency supposedly in charge of conservation has decided on a bear hunt. And today environmental groups are asking a judge to stop it.

    Florida is crazier than any cartoon…

    When I was a kid, I was a voracious reader, and always had my head in a book. Everywhere I walked I read. I still read everyday, but not when I walk. Can’t hold an iPad or book when walking with a cane. Not so much traffic back when I was a kid.

    My first thought was of the ‘driven’ hunt in Africa a few weeks ago. Not high tech, but using beaters to drive animals to a group of rich “hunters” sitting in a truck is advanced from stalking. I thought Willie was saying it is a good thing the animals don’t treat us the way we treat them.

    Bears, like humans, are omnivores, we eat far more bears than bears eat humans however, but some say they do taste better than “long pig”. Maybe that’s why bears actually kill and eat very, very, few humans, and even that is after the human usually does something stupid. Which, being inattentive to your surroundings is the number one way people actualy bump into bears, rather than the other way around.

    argy, add to that, Backpack Back from wearing a thirty pound backpack filed with all the books they lug to and from school. …huge science books, huge math books, huge social studies books.. I’ve seen little girls with backpacks half the size as the poor kid…They were bent forward at a 75 degree angle…

    No, no, no … the technology makes the User want to take a selfie while turning their backs to the bear in the background!

    “Stop trying to take selfies with bears in Waterton Canyon” The Waterton Canyon recreation area has been closed due to selfie-takers.— http://tinyurl.com/qy844y5

    If you can text faster than you can talk, you should be eaten by bears. If you can’t handle being away from sociopathic media or just being online for more than a few hours or less, you should be eaten by bears. And if you think your personal worth is based on how many complete strangers mark you as a friend on said sociopathic media, I’ll personally see to it that you get eaten by bears.
