Deer hunting

Well, that is what I'm up to these days. I got one on Saturday-- a 100+lb nubbin buck. Although my Bro also got a deer on Monday, we still need a few more in the freezer to last us the year! I'm going out again Wednesday, with a few brothers and neighbors. Hopefully we can get something.

I heard a joke today relating to deer hunting. It was told by an Irish, so take it in context.

"I was driving through Wisconsin on the weekend before Thanksgiving. As I was driving, I was seeing all these men out in the fields wearing orange. With my ancestry in the back of my head, I remarked to myself, 'My this sure is a protestant area!'"

OK, you have to be Irish or Swedish to get this one. Instead of wearing green on St Patrick's Day, it is traditional for the Protestant Swedes (in protest to the Irish, and also to remember the Prince of Orange) to wear orange.

Well, for all the rest of you going hunting, have fun!

Vote!

Just a reminder to vote. If you want a good overview of the candidates in my area, you can look at my brother's post here. Oh yes, By the way, I endorse the same candidates.

Paul R Nelson-You've got the issues straight!

I have to say that I am proud of your emphasis! He has put out only two radio adds, and the first was on defending life, and the second was on defending marriage. See them here.

I will support Paul R Nelson for Congress!

Thanks to Lucas for giving you reading!

I have to thank Lucas for posting on my blog. For me my summer has been hectic. I have had summer jobs, and also been helping our neighbors milking. I'm not sure how school will go this fall, but I do hope to post a little.

Liberal enough to keep slavery

The popular thought has been that liberal godless force of reason was the diving influence. Not so. As Barone's post points out, it was not past history or new liberal reason that got the balls rolling for the end of the slave trade, but Christianity and the likes of William Wilberforce that deserve the recognition.

Good to remember.

Sweet, Sweet Corn Deal

I have sweet corn again although the drought and coons have taken their own fair share. If you want some tho, stop by and I would be happy to sell you some. And the WW discount still applies.

A better ad...

Well Paul R. Nelson launches his first radio ad of the season. Good one too on the partial-birth abortion.

Willingness like that to confront Kind on his lack of kindness for kids really takes guts. The real question tho is if Kind will get a heart.

Watch that nose grow!

I just listened to Doyles ad on this home page and was thoroughly amazed to see how blatent a lie he could give. He stated in the ad that Green "wants to outlaw stem cell research."

First off no one objects to using adult stem cells for research. There are no lives taken.

Second, Green has never said he wants to even outlaw embryonic stem cell research: he just wants to limit funding it. Even good libertarians can support that on fiscal grounds alone let alone moral.

At least Doyle has the priviledge to lie. The embryos he is killing never will.

Check out Mark Green's site too btw. He has a new get to know you spot.

Strawberries!

Sorry all for my neglected blog. My last 3 weeks have been crazy. First we went on a surprise trip to Canada to visit my granny and cousins. Then the last two were filled with strawberry season. Both weeks I put in 80 plus hours of work, starting at 5:30 AM and going to 5:30-6:30 PM, Monday through Saturday. Yes a crazy two weeks for our whole family. Strawberry season is now over. To find out more about the field I work at, check out their web site www.redcedarvalleyfarms.com. Today is the last day of the season, but you are welcome to come next year! Hope to see you then!
