I would suggest reading Lonesome Dove first. The others are good books, Lonesome Dove is a masterpiece. You should experience it with a fresh palette.

Very fitting indeed. And also fitting to remember that the man who said those peaceful, love-filled words in Luke: they arrested him, spit on him, whipped him, placed a crown of thorns on his head, nailed him to a cross and crucified him. Evil in this world has always existed and will exist until He returns to defeat it.

Touché

Little League can mean 9 or 14

I only got to catch the last few innings after he passed the 100 pitch mark. Every pitch he made after that was stress free, no trouble, and in complete command. I think that means more than the actual number of pitches.

My experience is if you do it right, you’ll need to spank them once to prove you’ll do it. Then the threat of it will keep them straight the rest of the time. I have a teenager and a soon to be teenager. It’s worked so far. As an example, when my son was younger and he was back talking my wife, I sent him to his room, took off my belt and slammed it on the bed very loudly. Raised my voice and pretty much scared the hell out of him. Told him next time I’d slam the belt on his behind instead of the bed. But I never had to use it. Just a mention of the belt now straightens him out.

I bought my son a 20ga for Christmas and want to bring him squirrel hunting in Sherburne. But I don’t want to walk up on any deer hunters and spoil their hunt. Safety reasons too, since it’s open rifle at the moment. If I stick to the small game emphasis area along the river, should we be okay? Do people deer hunt that area? And if they do, I’m okay to walk through there hunting squirrels since it’s designated for that purpose right?

I don’t think she did, and she didn’t need to. She has a ton of canned answers that don’t answer anything and the moderators don’t follow up. All it would take would be for one moderator to follow up and say “explain that plan a little more in detail” and we could all watch her head short circuit.

0.760 is a hell of a batting average. Best ever. He probably should make the all-star game hitting that.

We’ll find out a lot about this year’s team the next two weekends. Schedule is finally getting lighter. Maybe knowing that will light a spark for them.
