Congrats bud, that is one sod of a cat! Well done!


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.

Congratulations on a great cat!


30+ years experience tells me that perfection hit at .264. Others are adequate but anything before or after is wishful thinking.

Way to go. That is a fantastic cat. There is nothing that compares to following a blood trail after a cat in the dark. You certainly know you are alive for those tense minutes. Thankfully, each time I have done it, the cat has been dead. Congrats.

HOLY BUCKETS!!! shocker A two-fer??!!

My heartiest congratulations, Oryxhunter. Maybe you should consider a new screen-name.

Just one question? What AC/DC were you rocking out to back to the lodge? What is the antithesis of Highway To Hell?

Good on you too, Corne and Co. tu2

"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."
