a couple of pics I found and thought of @jfcooley
That's really not that hard to do, they look like window decals sold on Amazon. I've had them and Vader in my cart at one time or another. Just don't have a mod I'd put them on.

God. I just woke up for 2 hours... Then puked. What a way to start a Sunday, man. No idea what it was, but the husband did cook last night. He and I have vastly different ways of handling chicken.

I rarely puke but totally hate it, so I always mention it, LOL. Gonna be the first thing I say to the husband after he wakes up. "Honey, I PUKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

if we get either down here,they shut the schools down for a week.all the milk and bread would be gone from the stores too.
don't forget about the eggs! Around here at the mention of more than a couple of inches of snow everyone rushes out to buy milk, bread and eggs. Never understood why snow makes people crave french toast

Congrats on your 4 year vapersary, @oldude 61 ! That's fantastic and inspiring. Congrats.

Bears are usually not that dangerous, they get a bad rap, honestly. And I have camped aplenty in areas where bears were an issue. If you don't leave food out, it's fine. Pretty rare for one to go rogue and target humans. Also, I'd rather be eaten by a bear than an opossum. It's over more quickly, and at least I could admire a majestic bear up close.... Opossums, though, they're just ugly, gross, and if they have rabies, I don't think you'd find it that "cute" to have one go after you. I am not fond of those critters, although I will admit there are ones that I hate... worse. :)

If your attacked by a bear, simply lie down and accept your place in Earth's food chain.

It's not a very good survival tip, and for that, I am sorry.

Hahaha - not too far off.

One morning last year i was going for a walk, just for exercise and just along the road. Well I kept smelling bear, and the further along I got along the road the stronger the bear smelled, instead of me walking away from the bear it was almost like I was walking toward, and then side by side with the bear, instead of walking away. .

At that point I checked the fact I had no weapon, I hadn't even taken my walking stick that day - nothing whatsoever for self defense other than my intelligence, and to be honest I had more faith in the bear winning than me.. haha. Sometimes intelligence does little to no good. Lol.

Well I hadn't actually seen the bear yet (as the forest is against the road) but, instinct kicked in and I decided it was time to make my way back home, so I turned around and started walking back to the house .

Two or three steps later I saw, not one bear, but two. They were sitting on the side of the road at that point looking at me. (I make an interesting subject.. lol)

I stopped and gave it some thought - once more to the absense of ways to defend myself.

So I made a decision... the road was man-made and so it was mine. .. they could have the forest, but I owned that road.

So I acted naturally - and walked right past them... (attempting to exude confidence... while having a measure of fear)

I did not run, I did not act like prey or a victim, i acted like i was in the hood and no one was going to intimidate me, or stop me.

And they watched me go... no problems..

But yeah, sometimes... you just know what rung of the food chain your on, and you know it's not the top.. hahaha. You just fake it to make it through. .
