Really nosajpo??? How are they going to 'cut them off from power....' ??? Explain to me, logically, how the commission is going to 'cut them off....' given their charter/authority? Do you understand the limited power the the ACC has?? Do you know something that the rest of us don't??? I read the letter. Among other things, he basically states that he would 'be happy to encourage AZ utilities to renegotiate their contracts so LA no longer receives AZ power...' The CA utilites have an OWNERSHIP stake in the AZ power generation! They are not "AZ utilities..." as he states! There is JOINT ownership! Therefore they are CA/AZ utilities!!! There is NO way that they will 'no longer receive AZ power...'! My point is that IMO he looks stupid for jumping into this pissing match. Blowing smoke to make it look like the government commission he represents has the authority to do something that they do NOT! Do they have the authority to influence rates, etc. YES! Do they have the authority to see that CA no longer gets power??? NO! CA: "Oh yea? Well, if you do that, then we'll do this!!!" AZ: "Oh yea? Well, if you guys do THAT, then we'll do this!!!" CA: "Oh yea? Well, our govenor can beat up your govenor!!!" AZ: "Oh yea? Well, at least our govenor is a natural born citizen!!!" CA: "Well you can't cut our power off anyway!" AZ: "Can to!" CA: "Can not!" AZ: "Can to!" CA: "Can not!" AZ: "Oh yea? Well at least we have COUES deer to hunt!!!" CA: "OH yea? Well we don't want to hunt those little deer anyway!" Etc., etc., etc....... Politics makes me sick. S. LOL!!! that was hysterical Stanley... good one. "Well, we don't want to hunt those little deer anyway!!" LOL!! I don't know if the commission has the power to follow through on their threat, but I liked the letter anyway. Tensions are running high and people are throwing their weight around.

Amazing shot you made there too Tines! That lion was WAY up there!

Good finds!

Not a bad suggestion, but I haven never enjoyed rollerblading! It's just not the same.....

OK. Wear a CouesWhitetail.com tshirt and it will be easier to find you If you don't have one already, here is the link: http://www.coueswhitetail.com/bookstore/tshirts.htm

So here is what we have: Table 1 1. Hector 2. Orlin 3. Mark N. 4. Kathy N. 5. Cookie N. 6. Amanda 7. Eric K. 8. Colton B. 9. Mrs. Colton B. 10. Bill Cullins Table 2 1. TAM 2. TAM's wife 3. Grong 4.

For those sitting at Table 1, how many of you would like to go to the Deer Daze seminar which happens from 1-4 pm just before the banquet. That is a trophy mule deer hunting seminar given by Ryan Hatch. Should be excellent. The cost is only $10 if you buy with a banquet ticket. Let me know who wants to go.

+1 Thanks for the info Ben. And thanks Jeff for raising the issue

I really enjoy your posts....thanks for sharing your day of shooting with us.

Ahhhhhh just like riding a bike Amanda! Once your on the ice instinct takes over, but yeah, you'll be sucking some wind! Your talent is limitless Way to go!!! Have fun! You sound like you write from experience Ilene. Do you play?

I haven't heard anything new on it....

that's the reason I created this new "hunting in Africa" forum and the other new forums for elk, mulies, lions, etc. There is so much content posted on CW.com that it can get missed or lost if it is not in its own category. The new changes should make it much easier to find and post content.

Awesome mounts!!

I am not sure I can add people to the tables that way since you already bought tix? You did already buy tickets right GingerRam?

Great write-ups Gino and amazing video. Can't wait to see the rest of the video you took!

No pics?? Glad you had a great time

Outstanding post! Thank you for reminding us what Memorial Day is all about.

+1 on not calling it in. I know AGFD has a tough job to do when it comes to bears and I sympathize with their dilema. And I know most wardens really don't want to be putting bears down. That's exactly why I didn't call AGFD when a bear walked through my back yard a couple years ago. They have tranquilized and killed bears in Globe, and I don't see how that is a good policy. Seems to me there has got to be a better way. I imagine AGFD has come up with a protocol on handling these situations. I wonder if that protocol is available to the public for review? I am curious what they use as criterion.

We will have at least two tables full of CouesWhitetail.com members. here is a link to the table listing: http://forums.coueswhitetail.com/forums/in...30&start=30

LOL!! I didn't know how else to figure it out since you hadn't made many posts yet.

i also vote for this one!! +1

Congratulations to you both for an awesome hunt and shot. Hunting lions with dogs is almost always an incredible adventure!

Already looked at your email address, so yes, now I know who you are Welcome!

I swear skeeter's truck is the most spotted sticker in this forum!

Ok! Luckily they just put in a new automatic carwash near me with some great options for waxing, so my big secret is I just run the cars through there and then pretend I did it all by hand So who are you? PM me if you prefer.

Yes, just call me and we can work out the details. I probably won't be around but it won't matter...my husband probably will be and your truck will be safe.
