KGAINES

Congrats to you Coosefan. I feel for the guys that were giving you a hard time with the pics and the photoshopping earlier this year. Ernesto take care buddy, I hope you will continue to contribute to the site.

Congrats I wish you and your family the best.

Seems like there are more and more every year.

Tony I am drawing a complete blank, I am trying to think of books in that era that I might have read or authors who were well known. I am patiently awaiting the answers you will give us shortly.

Can anyone explain why they don't reduce the numbers, I understand there isn't much use in hunting them as far as a food source. What is their impact on native species, elk were introduced and have hurt deer populations and they really try to eliminate them from north of the river, other than that azgfd knows that elk are money makers and turn a blind eye to it, but these pakistani burros are allowed to do as they wish with little or no restrictions, I can imagine mountain lions would definately choose deer over a burro for the simple fact that these things can be downright mean, and I can imagine areas with little water or feed are going to be monopolized by the burros. Tony do you have any answers to that, or any theories.

I have seen them quite afew miles south of 74, figured the CAP would hold them for a while, I guess not. I am at the 303 and happy valley none here yet, I will have to ask if Trilogy or Blackstone golf courses are having any trouble with them.

None of the above. More clues: #1 -- He also was involved with developing several wildcat calibers. #5 -- When I was a kid, I had a collection of Classic "comic" books. This author had a couple. One of his works was a very well received movie a few years ago. -TONY I am now drawing a blank, maybe someone else knows.

Yup, #4 was indeed Slammin' Sammy Snead. Guess you work for Ping, huh? And....so far the other correct asnwer, which Amanda posted first, is Edward Abbey for #2. The quote was from his A Voice Crying in the Wilderness. Four more to go folks!! A couple of clues: 1. Noted gunsmith/writer and world-wide big-game hunter now dead 3. Author and naturalist 5. Writer of noted classics. His life spanned the 19th & 20th century 6. Wrote several well-known fictional novels, including one popular with kids. His life also spanned the 19th & 20th century -TONY More authors for you, Fred Gipson or Stephen Crane, Old Yeller and The Red Badge Of Courage are classics, I just don't know if they hunted. The hunter/writer/gunsmith is killing me, once you give us the answer on that one I will have to read at least one of his books, just so I won't forget, and if I already have I am not going to be happy with my guesses so far, any more hints on any of them would be appreciated. I don't know if you can tell but I really enjoy these questions.

I agree they are getting out of hand, twenty years ago you might see a few here and there especially around Alamo and Pleasant, they are expanding their territory for sure.

Me at number 4?!??!!?! guess im gonna have to start talking about my december tag more often then! Casey you're right, I didn't realize how many posts you have, I will have to move you up to number two, but there is no way you are passing Gamehauler up, he is in a league all his own.

Tony they are definately guesses and no I wouldn't cheat, when you get this many chances you are bound to get them correct eventually. I am going by your clues and not by the quotes, the quotes I have never heard until now, and if I did they weren't remembered. My son has football practice so I will be thinking of more American authors, and a gunsmith to add. Is the author and gunsmith someone from outdoor life, I can't think of names right now, but questions with no answers drive me nuts. Tony when I thought of dickens I thought of A Christmas Carol

I am definately guessing, I almost picked Thoreau when I picked Emmerson, any more clues on the others. Are any or all of them Americans. Numbers five and six are very intriguing to me since I read all the time, I should know them. One of them isn't Charles Dickens is it.

#1 Gamehauler #2 tjhunt2 #3 OW #4 Casey #5 CnS I wonder if Amanda can check that, would be cool to know.

Henry David Thoreau #3 Samuel Colt #1 Edgar Allen Poe #5 J.D. Salinger #6 I will keep guessing, am I getting close. I am guessing #1 is probably one that we all should or will know once the answer is given.

2200 posts and 300000 views

Jack London Ralph Waldo Emmerson #3 Samuel Clemons I can't think of who the first one might be, the gunsmith part is throwing me off, maybe John Browning

#5 maybe Annie Oakley #1 maybe Hemmingway #4 maybe Ben Hogan #3 I think may be a hunter, not sure who maybe Fred Bear #2 Definately animal activist but from years ago since the term sportsmen was used and not something else, maybe John Lennon Great questions Tony I had to guess on every one and would be surprised if I got any right.

I can ask at our meeting next Tuesday, Amanda might know more about this than I do as far as the ADA goes.

Dick Cheney

I would think as long as the butane is burning it wouldn't create an odor, but raw butane usually has an odor added doesn't it.

I just wish educated people would learn from others rather than instill their beliefs on all just because they think they are mentally superior.

He's dead if that makes you feel better.

I wonder if you had something that LOOKED like c4 and some wires ran into it would anyone mess with it, if the wires came from the camera box.

I do know this one, but will wait to see if someone else get it. PM sent.

Lark or anyone else has their been any more news on the stupid counterfeiting tapia lady with the locked gate and the child molesting son. Have they unlocked the gate yet or is their still a donation to the child molestor required to get you through the gate.
