It’s 72 here in Florida and deer season right now. ;)

I recently traded my blaze winter jumper for the hindquarters and shoulders. I had no clue what to do with it. Guy handed me a hefty bag and said have at it. It was frozen solid. So I let it defrost a while then started hacking it apart.

Wife comes in and sees me going at this frozen mess and screams. Tells me to get it out of the house. So after a couple of hours, I have all these baggies filled with venison.

So I start looking at venison recipes. I created this marinade with worchestershire and brown sugar. In goes the meat. A day later on the grill. “Taste” I told the kids. “Holy crap dad, that’s great. What is it?” I told them.

I now have to find a venison guy.

Jose Ortega y Gasset’s Meditations on Hunting. "A work of genius!” I yelled. "Ortega was the century’s most acute philosopher!”

It is indeed a marvelous tome.

"Lady Gaga, actually” she said smugly. ‘We’re discussing her lyrics.”

Lady Gaga takes her name from the '80s Queen song Radio Gaga.

The song is about bad radio. The original name was Radio Ca Ca.

#1 daughter lives in Tennessee. About a mile from her house, at the entrance to their subdivision, is a house. In the front yard is a tree with one branch cut back and stripped of bark. It’s just the right height for dressing out a deer or pulling an engine. Daughter and family call i8t the “redneck house.” I regard it as a totally practical arrangement.

[RightOnTheBorder]

That is very appropriate considering every one of her songs sounds like a bad imitation of a better artist from the 80’s

We are all vegetarians.

Animals are simply a storage battery for vegetables, so they don’t spoil. Some larger batteries eat the smaller ones, admittedly, but this is more efficient organization and storage for vegetables than many small batteries...

I personally love the smell of cooking vegetable storage batteries with Montreal Seasoning...

A true sportsman shows respect for the animal. I always enjoyed the opening scene in the 1992 movie of James Fenimore Cooper's "The last of the Mohicans", where after killing an elk the Indian hunters pause for a moment of prayer giving respect for the animal they had just taken. "We're sorry to kill you, Brother. We do honor to your courage and speed, your strength." Click here to view

[Hebrews 11:6]

My family always uses the swingset for hanging them. Strong crossbar at the perfect height, with nothing but lawn below to mess up.

Venison; the other red meat.

Locally, I've noticed over the years as deer hunting has grown more and more popular so has the deer population grown.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

LMAO!!!!! I LOVE it! Coming from a hunting family.....this is close to my heart. ;-)

You don’t need to freeze, or tromp through bad weather.

When I was twelvish, Mom & our hostess were cleaning up the kitchen, as Dad, my older brothers, and I; and her husband and son, all hit the woods.

When we got back for lunch, the buck they shot in the pasture, while they were sitting and talking on the back porch, was hanging in the barn.

Actually we are all solar powered.

You can’t get more “green” than that...
