Sorry about that
Had too many IE windows open, grabbed the wrong HTML address. NOT INTENTIONAL, trust me.

Duck is on the job
Campaigning for Obama.
My best game plan is to sit on the bench and call out specific instructions like 'C'mon Boog,' 'Get ahold of one, Frank,' or 'Let's go, Brooks.' -Earl Weaver
Seriously, it was an accident
Not trrying to RickRoll or ObamaRoll anyone. I know there’s plenty of posters here who don’t agree with me politically. That’s OK. Not trying to convert anyone. Have I said I’m sorry yet? Seriously, it was an accident, guys. Did I mention I screwed up?

Liberal scum! Bet you can't gut a moose at 40 yards!

Try me.
I’m from the Shore, son. I can start a fire with lint and flint, I can live off the land for 3 days if I had to, I can tell you how much sunlight is left in a day without a watch, I can tell you which fork in a creek to take to stay with the current, I can tell you which way is north just by looking at a tree, I know where the fish run and how to bait a hook, and I can properly sharpen a knife. I’ve packed and hiked in my own food and water on a 2 day hike, I’ve biked the C&O Canal 3 times, and I can cook beef, potatoes and carrots in tinfoil on a fire that’s down to coals. I’ve actually made peach cobbler in a Dutch oven, boiled water to wash dishes, and made Smores.
But, admittedly, I can’t field dress a slain moose. She’s got me there.

Sounds awesome
Reminds me of my days as a Boy Scout. Some of my favorite childhood memories took place on scout trips – canoeing, hiking, biking, orienteering, rock scrambling, whitewater rafting, camping outside at the annual Scout Weekend at the Naval Academy every January (brr).
Scouting may get a bad rap nowadays, but I loved it.
I'm an Eagle Scout
and my boy’s a Cub Scout. I was an Ass’t Scoutmaster for 8 years…I got yer back, PhilR8

I never made eagle :(
Life Scout. Around the 11th grade, I decided I liked wasting time on the computer more than I liked completing merit badges. My brother made Eagle, though.
Got mine signed off
9 PM the night before my 18th birthday. Had to do 3 merit badges and my project in the 2 weeks before my birthday. My dad almost killed me. Spent my birthday typing up my essay and application on a typewriter. Yes, I am that old.

This is pretty common, I think
I know lots of guys who went right up to the deadline.
I was lucky enough to have a few months to spare, but I sure wasn’ t one of those crazy over-achievers who did it when they were like 14. I always suspected those kids had more help than they should have.
I had a few friend
who had it wrapped up before they were 16. Me? I spent most of my senior year in HS putting it off. Thanks God I have a late July birthday…

Very similar here
I had my interview after my 18th birthday. Luckily they liked me enough. I still carry my card because no one ever believes me when I tell them.

My Court of Honor...
was on my first Thanksgiving break from college. No lie.

You had
a more fun 18th than I did. I spent it going to classes.
And I didn’t even party because it was my 1st week of Freshman year and I still kept my “no alcohol on weeknights” rule, which if memory serves me right lasted about another week or so after that.
You can't fix stupid. Stupid is forever.
Believe it or not....
I am an Eagle Scout as well. Sadly, I think I lost a lot of my outdoor knowledge.

Seriously...
no one wants to know how to to tell how much sunlight is left without a watch? I’ll tell ya if you ask…

I'm gonna be honest with ya
I’m not even sure how much sunlight is left WITH a watch.
[Guthrie's] president of my heart. ~PhilR8
I find
that it’s much simpler to always be somewhere that has electric lights.

no offense duck
Even though you accidently dug the Grand Canyon by dragging your axe, dug Lake Michigan as a drinking hole, and survived weather so cold your campfire flames froze, I’ll still choose a moose skinnin’, snow machine riding, good ol’ boy slayin’ Governor to get me through the wilderness.

The key question: Whaddaya do when you're drunk in a duck blind with a Republican lawyer?
(a) Blow his face off.
(b) Blow his face off and lie about it.
(c )Blow his face off, lie about it and hide out in a secure location.
(d) All of the above, then proceed with gutting and mounting your trophy Constitution like nothing had happened.
Only in America!
Luckily.

No worries, duck
I was just poking fun at you and trust that you didn’t mean to redirect us to that page, not that I would be offended or any shit like that.
