Was it a problem when he was born but now that he's older, the problem has gone away?<br /><br />I don't know, but I think they're good questions to ask.Maggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12677808307727487766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21829866.post-74001613300473947202010-02-12T15:53:55.005-05:002010-02-12T15:53:55.005-05:00PETA?

Oh, man...<br /><br />When I lived in Pierre, SD the ladies from PETA promised us a naked demonstration to protest the varmint hunters association and related shooting of coyotes, wolves, prairie dogs and other related varmints. Well sir, every cowboy in a 50 mile radius took the day off to come to town, have a nice, leisurely lunch with a beer and a shot and maybe another, then get a good spot to watch and see the big naked PETA demonstration.<br /><br />PETA never showed.<br /><br />Since then I've lost all confidence in PETA and don't care a whit what they say about anything. I think some of those cowboys will never really recover from the terrible disappointment they had to endure over that naked demonstration that never happened.Mad Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06190137186843630543noreply@blogger.com
