A little light reading for the off-season.
This link will take you to a story that is a couple of years old, but, to me at least, it is an interesting story. It's about a hunt that takes place where Ilived as a boy. I got to meet my heroes then, some were among the most famous men in the country, if not the world, and they all hunted. My dad hunted with them, and guided. We were there for most of the first decade of the hunt, but I haven't been to one since.

That sounds like it would be a hoot.

I didn't realize that General Schwarzkopf (tough name to spell, I had to go back and look) had to have secret service protection.

You ought to try to go back. Do you have to be a celebrity to participate?

Sure gives the lie to the "I hate guns'n'hunting" crowd, doesn't it? Howsomever, I notice that particular crowd does little in the way of real-world community betterment.
