Sorry, it was just there to do....

Yeah, welcome new guy. Do you prefer a .30-06, or the 6.5 CM? And....go!

Not cruel. I like Chuck. And one of his best features is, he gives, and he takes. I even think he has a sense of humour sometimes.

Welcome aboard. Very interesting place to visit with some very handy information. Quite the crew that I'd miss if it was not available.

Welcome.

Best post topics as a newbie are:

1. Can anyone give me the GPS coordinates to their elk and large walleye honeyholes?

2. Can someone pass on their permission access phone numbers, emails, and GPS coordinates

3. I'm thinking about buying one rifle thats suitable for hunting anything in Alberta. What are your recommends for Brand, cartridge, and why you feel strongly about this?

4. I really like the 30-06 chambering, but worry it might be too weak to use on game larger than blacktail deer, and that at 55 I'm old enough to own one. Discuss.

Truly sir, you are my favorite Richard Noggin....

That's a great Chinook, Blacktail! Don't mind 270, he is dyslexic. And an insomniac. And an agnostic.

He lies awake at night and wonders if there is a dog.

I'm ok for the most part on the dislicksets part. You nailed the insomnia, and I'm a practising Buddhist so grasshoppahs, and walleye, play a big role in my life.

And there's definitely a dog. Belongs to my neighbour and is the main reason I'm lieing awake at night. Which Segways (dishlickseeyas) us back to the insomnia thing.
