  • San Bernardino County .....WTF ?

    This is not political in anyway,just an inquiry.


    I have a supe who is transferring to the Fresno area and was asking him 'why' as the difference in the spending value of his dollar would drop dramatically especially in relation to real estate . He said that was definitly not the case anymore. In fact , he brought up another supe who had recently transfered here and said that Sean hadn't even put his house in LA on the market as he paid $400,000 for it, but now it was worth a fraction of that . He lives here but is still keeping his house in LA.



    So I looked at a place in San Bernardino county that we have a duty station at . I looked there as I had looked at homes there before and kind of had a ballpark idea of what homes had been going for.....I was shocked at how much homes are going for there. 4 bed 2 ba 2,000 sq ft places for less than $150,000 . You can't even get a home like that here for that ,in general . What's going on out there to cause a drop by that much ?

    I love Mexican culture.....^^


    Every cock fight I have ever been to was an excercise in conversational Spanish.Rednecks and Mexican immigrants have alot in common.I know my neighbor Henry is a hell of alot of fun to have along when we turn terriers loose on coons !!:toast: I think he get's more stoked about furbearer season than I do.

    What's wrong with killing for fun ? Your outside , in nature, shooting something....the payoff ? It brought joy. That simple .That's the only reason I don't shoot prarie dogs....the military burned me out on range time, sniper school thoroughly finished the job on burn-out, so shooting prarie dogs reminds me too much of all of that....and I haven't found a use for the ones blown to smithereens except to confirm that a .17 HMR is one of the greatest rifle configs of this century.


    That being said, part of my "fun" is finding utilization . Carp provide dog food, fertilizer, trotline and trapline bait....I shoot 'em and thro 'em in the freezer .


    As far as edibility; the only way I have had them yet that I liked was pickled.

    Wow Aaron, thanks for the generous offer. If it´´s not possible due to the mexican customs, I appreciatte your intention Hermano. :)


    Are those Snipes so hard to shoot that the name "sniper" comes from the act of hunting them?


    I could see where they would be with a rifle as they run up and down the shore....in flight ,they cork screw like their cousin the woodcock.

    Yes, In our culture roosters are very important in lots of ways, from eggs to cock fights .


    Pucho,


    Let me ask, as a resident of one of the last lower 48 states that allowed cock fights and a guy with co-workers retiring to the Phillipines so they can raise roosters ...is fighting roosters still as cool in PR as it used to be in OK..?

    Wow Aaron, that´s so yummy. It reminded me the ol O´Connor, big game animals of North America" in which he describes some of the most delicious bbq made of Buffalo loins and Deer chops. I would really want to taste Snipe and feral hog.!! Thank you bro


    Tony,


    Last Sept. I shot a limit of snipe before Alissa's coffee maker kicked on at 8:00 AM . I was grillimg snipe by 8:30 .Alissa( who I don't mind saying had done some traveling before she went 'slummin' and fell in love with my ass) said that breakfast of that caliber would've cost a fortune elsewhere


    In September, I will send you some snipe breasts.

  • I think they are going to fit in alright....

    I got Poncho and Willie in March from a friend of mine who is die hard Airedale guy....I had some reservations(only cause I could be leaving at anytime) at first cause I had heard Airedales can be a tad bit...well... headstrong. However, my family and I are dog folks so we were content to observe and see what's what.


    My thoughts ? They love and adore their people. Keep 'em close and they'll do anything asked of 'em.Highly obedient, unless ignored.:) As far as my future dog arsenal ? Fast dogs.....and always a pair of Airedales. BTW, they work water as good as any Lab. Might be the Otterhound in them.And they love to retrieve.
    They are now 6 mos. old.
