120mmInterestin' happenings
Not cat related, but.... After getting canned from work in late November, I volunteered to go on an early deployment to Iraq. Oddly enough, there were no tours available. Seems like there are more volunteers to go than there are jobs over there for military types. Well, this morning I got a phone call informing me that I have been mobilized.... to teach ROTC at Illinois State University in Bloomington. So... looks like getting fired was one of the better moves I've made, lately. Anyone have a good scouting reports at how Lawn Leopard and Field Lion hunting are in Central Illinois this time of year???

N. S. SherlockGood for you 120. I think farm ferals might be in short supply there. The good news is they got some whopper coyotes all over and some pretty fair small game and deer hunting.

120mmDan, you have no idea how much a fear the cheerleaders. I love my wife and want to stay married to her.
Thanks for the well-wishes, I'll let you know how things work out once I get settled there.
