You are lying. An environmental-whacko past friend of my wife told me with all seriousness that they feed chickens urine soaked saw dust. If that don't kill them, hay sure as hell won't.


That is the stupidest thing I've ever heard. That guy was a lier and a serious dumbfuck.

That's pretty much the base. Then you add amino acids, fats, soybeans, alittle meat meal, vitamins and minerals and you're set.

Urine could give vitamins and minerals but there's no metabolizable energy in wood. It's a filler. Without other sources of proteins they would die.

No fucking shit. Yet I could not get this idiot to understand this simple fact. There were many such beliefs she had that were absolutely crazy. However, like most religious zealots, they are not open minded to the fact that some things they believe may not be true. Once you question anything, then your whole house of cards is in jeopardy, and then who can you be so certain of your moral superiority to the rest of us heathens.

One of those beliefs of people like her is that farmers hate their animals and take joy in their pain and suffering. They cannot even comprehend how much my grandfather cared for his dairy cows. You fucked with them and you might get shot. You would not have been the first person to have shots fired in your general direction :shock: They don't care because they are nuts like her. They care because it's just really bad business to not care.

One of the guys that received a warning shot was a guy that would later become one of my little league coaches. He was with a group of teenagers that were out drinking and spot lighting and where shining their light on my grandfathers cows. He came out and told them to get lost. Before you tell someone to go fuck themselves, you probably should make sure that you can if they are carrying a shotgun or not. My coach swears the muzzle blast shot flames completely over the roof of their car. The got lost in a hurry. My grandfather has no idea how they made the corner on the road :lol:

What those people refuse to realize is that animals will not optimally perform if they are suck or in pain. Generally farmers/ranchers will do everything in their power to ensure animals are happy, comfortable, and healthy. Mistreating animals doesn't make a lick of sense economically.

She just could not accept what is such obvious common sense.

Although I do recall this Phil Hendrie show where Ted Bell of Ted's of Beverly Hills talks about how beef tastes much better if it is scared near to death before you kill it because of all the adrenaline. All I could find on youtube was talking about his miniature chickens. Maybe that was because they only fed them sawdust.

I don't know the guy sounded pretty authentic to me. Did you watch the video, carefully? If not maybe, you should call into his show.

Back when I was listening to it around 2000, it was one of the funniest shows. At first I couldn't believe these fucking moron guest that came on his show. Then I couldn't stop laughing at the callers that called in and argued with all of his guests. The scared meat episode was one of the best.

It's funny how one little plug can ruin your day. Truck stopped charging and I trouble shot it down to the fielding plug on the alternator. I guess after 15 years it just wore out.

The funniest thing about his show was the people that called in so mad, especially if they started spouting their credentials trying to prove how smart they were. :lol: I wonder how many of them never realized how bad they had been had.

Filched this from another board:

BUD the Cowboy


A cowboy named Bud was overseeing his herd in a remote mountainous pasture in Montana when suddenly a brand-new 2015 BMW advanced toward him out of a cloud of dust. The driver, a young man in a Brioni® suit, Gucci® shoes, RayBan® sunglasses and YSL® tie, leaned out the window and asked the cowboy, "If I tell you exactly how many cows and calves you have in your herd, will you give me a calf?"

Bud looks at the man, who obviously is a yuppie, then looks at his peacefully grazing herd and calmly answers, "Sure, why not?"

The yuppie parks his car, whips out his Dell® notebook computer, connects it to his Apple i phone, and surfs to a NASA page on the Internet, where he calls up a GPS satellite to get an exact fix on his location which he then feeds to another NASA satellite that scans the area in an ultra-high-resolution photo.

The young man then opens the digital photo in Adobe Photoshop® and exports it to an image processing facility in Hamburg, Germany ...

Within seconds, he receives an email on his Apple iPad® that the image has been processed and the data stored. He then accesses an MS-SQL® database through an ODBC connected Excel® spreadsheet with email on his Galaxy S5® and, after a few minutes, receives a response.

Finally, he prints out a full-color, 150-page report on his hi-tech, miniaturized HP LaserJet® printer, turns to the cowboy and says, "You have exactly 1,586 cows and calves."

"That's right. Well, I guess you can take one of my calves," says Bud.

He watches the young man select one of the animals and looks on with amusement as the young man stuffs it into the trunk of his car.

Then Bud says to the young man, "Hey, if I can tell you exactly what your business is, will you give me back my calf?"

The young man thinks about it for a second and then says, "Okay, why not?"

"You're a Congressman for the U.S. Government", says Bud.

"Wow! That's correct," says the yuppie, “but how did you guess that?"

"No guessing required." answered the cowboy. "You showed up here even though nobody called you; you want to get paid for an answer I already knew, to a question I never asked. You used millions of dollars’ worth of equipment trying to show me how much smarter than me you are; and you don't know ***** about how working people make a living - or about cows, for that matter. This is a herd of sheep.”

“Now give me back my dog.”

AND THAT FOLKS IS WHAT THE PROBLEM IS.

5 hours on the water today scouting and 9 hours tonight shooting. Finished with a solid 3 fish and probably last place. Good start to the year.

Pretty much. Few dogs. The lake is supposedly loaded with carp and they are all stunted and 12-15" long. We saw a lot during the daytime scout and nothing really at night

Officer refuses to shoot suspected double murder. Even when he would have been justified in doing so. The Cop was fresh out of the marines after 2 tours in Iraq which probably allowed him to keep a cooler head.

Good guy cop deserves to be recognized for using better judgment.

I've heard and seen carp overrun a place, but if they are to the point that they are stunted, it is time to nuke the lake and start over. Rotenone and not bowfishing is what is needed.

That's one thing I really like fishing down here. We have a ton of different species. We had a season long contest where you got points for the different species. We were up around 20 different species.

I've never got a dogfish. Guys get them all the time, but I'll be damned if I can get one. I missed a giant one about 4' deep in a lake known for giant bowfin. The only other one that I have seen was when I missed a little one right next to the boat. That was in a tournament and big bowfin got a bow. There was a good chance that was going to be the only one since they don't get many that time of year in that area. The upside was another guy got two, both bigger than the one I missed, so at least it didn't cost me a bow.

The only reason that comes to mind that keeps them from nuking it, is there is a fairly strong population of spotted shortnose gar in the lake. And they are an endangered species. I saw my first one last night. Pretty cool fish.
We get quite a few dogs on the bay every year. They hang out in real tight vegetation where we don't usually target them so we don't get as many as we could.

These are the 3 we got. Almost all the fish we saw in the lake were this big.
That's a 55gal barrel. 24" across the bottom.
