In Michigan in the US we do the same thing with morel mushrooms, secret mushroom hunting grounds, many times family members won't tell each other unless they are living in the same household. During morel season we don't even like people from other states who come looking for them.

I heard some years ago they had a charity paintball contest and he rode into the middle of the melee on a horse dressed like a Klingon! He was like 70 then!!

How did they convince the horse to dress like a Klingon?

OK ... so what's a "SRL" anyway ... and is it blind-as-a-bat, too?

A bit pathetic, hociR.

Soon we will be screaming "The new SRL is here! The new SRL is here!" .... well, maybe not.

Oh, nothing. Nothing at all. It was more of a general remark...

(By all means, I can't think of anyone here not in need of help.)

After they figured out how to lead the horse to water AND make him drink, it was easy!

Finally a camera for Otis and his army. Beware, Rupert - soon they'll be firing back.
