And I plan on eradicating the species! :-)


Butch: At least when you go the concession will have had the better part of a month to recover. I think I start the day after Biebs wraps up.

Biebs: Castle Lager isn't a species ....

Nice work, Tim. Congrats.

Its hard for me to grasp the size of ivory from pictures. The pic of the tracker crossing the river with it over his shoulder really puts it in to perspective.

Congrats Tim & Rod

Damn Africa, I can smell the dust from here.


I have walked in the foot prints of the elephant, listened to lion roar and met the buffalo on his turf. I shall never be the same.

"Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading" - Thomas Jefferson

Every morning the Zebra wakes up knowing it must outrun the fastest Lion if it wants to stay alive. Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running......

"If you're being chased by a Lion, you don't have to be faster than the Lion, you just have to be faster than the person next to you."
