I've never gone hunting, but if someone is using a shotgun to hunt deer, wouldn't they be more likely to use a slug instead of buckshot? Of course, since it's called 'buckshot,' maybe I'm wrong....

You're right. I only looked at the seasoning thing briefly, but if it's real, it would be for the small speedy animals that shotguns are used to hunt.

here's a list of deer hunting guns.

Hmm, those are all rifles. At least in Wisconsin, there are areas where you can only use a rifle, and areas where you can only use a shotgun. If you use a shotgun, you either use shot or slugs. (A slug is just a hunk of lead.)

Aw, it's Pat Robinson and the 700 Sluuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuutttt

It's like Ali Baba and the 40 thieves. Except not.

I graduated with Matt in '87.

Cool, 87 has a club too.

Wheee, tree down and flooding just down the road from me.

lisah, not sure if you do, but if you use San Martin or Wyman Park Drive, they are closed.

I refuse to start putting myself in grad year groups, because then I will compare achievements and it never ends well when I consider a set of pooled life accomplishments against just me alone.

I am a woman without a time, just as I am a woman without a country or a job, and to overstate a phone call I just got off of, a woman without a best friend.

The big storm that's supposed to hit the Chicagoland area today has pretty much avoided my office. We've got overcast skies with occasional spits of drizzle and a strong breeze, but no 50-mph gusts as they were predicting.

Aw, ita. Is everyone having a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad November?

ita is a woman of one.
