Towards the end of my safari with Andrew Baldry in Zambia, we needed more lion bait. I asked Tom, his father's right hand man, my wonderful hunting companion, and the smartest young man I have ever met, to help me out. I had already taken one Hippo and we needed another. Tom made a great shot!!!!!! I was told this was Tom's first big game animal! Well done!  And, like his father, he is a bit of a clown!  Best regards, D. Nelson | ||

Cool stuff Darin! 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. | |||

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." | |||
