Success with elephant

I'm at the Southern Sun Hotel in JNB, just returned from Zimbabwe and Chirisa. I took an elephant with Lou Hallamore on Saturday (the last day of the hunt). I'll post more when I get back, but in the meantime, take a look at the African Travel forum about Delta's lie.

I am a little p.o.'ed as you'll find. Click on Delta's lie please and see what I'm talking about.

JudgeG ... just counting time 'til I am again finding balm in Gilead chilled out somewhere in the Selous.

I always try to use enough gun but then sometimes a brainshot works just as good.

Last day Ele is always better than no Ele! Look forward to hearing all about it.

Judge,

Happy to hear about the elephant and am looking forward to the huntng report.

I fly Delta every week and I thought I had heard all of their b.s. over the years, but your story is a new one.

Congrats on the ele!

Ernest,

I'm glad your hunt was a success. I'm also sorry about the travel FUBAR. Crap like that can really taint your overall experience.

Judge-
Congratulations on the ele. I await the full report with baited breath.
I can only hope that when an airline screws me while on a big hunt, it happens on the way home. Go get em.

Congrats Ernest... looking forward to your Hunt Report!

On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!
- Rudyard Kipling

Life grows grim without senseless indulgence.
