  1. Her speech reminded me of your quick wit and sharpness, no wonder I like her.

    Do you hunt?

  2. Do I hunt? No, but some say I'm a hypocrite. I am repulsed by hunting for sport or trophy but I do eat meat, chicken and fish. And, I do pull crab posts and eat my catch with great satisfaction.

    And, here in Northern NJ, I am conflicted about the dangerous overpopulation of deer who not only ravage our gardens but are also a danger on our streets and highways at night. Some say the solution lies in increasing the number of hunting licenses but I'm thinking that providing lots of salt lick with birth control medicine would be much more humane.

    My vegetarian daughter proudly tells me that "Vegetarian" is Native American Indian for "lousy hunter."

    I guess the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, eh?
