The numbers don’t show that. Out of approx 4.6 million head of livestock in Montana in 2019, The Montana Livestock Loss Board paid ranchers for claims on around 400 animals killed by predators. According to the Board, the number killed by Grizzlies was almost double the number killed by wolves.

If you like their work together, and you’re not familiar with it, check out the album “Like Minds.” It’s a Gary Burton recording from ‘98 or ‘99 and the group is Burton, Corea, master drummer Roy Haynes, Pat Metheny, and Dave Holland.

We’ve got structures like the one shown, tents, plastic bubble-like things and open air with a ton of heaters. Like you said, anything to stay in business, but it’s not saving everybody. From small neighborhood joints, to some real high end places, we’re losing a lot of restaurants. Your state gave us mike pence, and my governor is nutty? Thanks for the laugh. 😂

“The Crow,” Frank Crosetti has 17.

Don McLean’s song was a tribute to all three who died in that plane crash: Holly, The Big Bopper and Richie Valens. Frugality prevented there being one more person on that flight. A seat was available to another passenger, who turned it down, refusing to pay more money for a short plane ride, than his parents paid in monthly rent on their Bronx apartment. That other person was Dion DeMucci, lead singer of the Belmonts.

Many years ago, there was a story in the papers about a smart thief who carried frozen steak with him. When he broke into an apartment here in NYC, and encountered a dog, he would throw the frozen steak toward the dog, who would scrape away like mad with its paws to get at the steak. While that was going on, the thief would take what ever he wanted and leave. He went through his routine in an apartment where a Doberman was on duty. After throwing the steak, he turned to look for something to take, when the Doberman took what he wanted, a chunk of the thief’s a$$. The thief was captured, but there was no mention of which chunk of meat the Doberman ate.

What did we do to deserve this punishment?

Lawn maintenance is among the dumbest things people do. You water and fertilize it, pull weeds, kill creatures, etc., all to make it grow. Then you spend a good part of your weekend cutting it down.

Dr Fauci is a glory hound, really? The guy has been working at the NIH for over fifty years, and I’m certain most Americans never heard of him until now. I only know of him because he’s another guy from the neighborhood who has been extremely successful.

If Gisele Bundchen was in one of those rooms, I think I could come up with something to do.

You watch the bass, I’ll watch (and listen to) Morgan James.

TG who?

A very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all.

I had thought so too, until I was there once. No mention of him that I could find, so I just played “Salt Peanuts,” and drove off.
