hah...I got a story. It has nothing to do with cigars scotch or sex, but if you're an outdoorsman, you'll chuckle. I laugh every time I think of it, and I don't get to tell it much. Saw this addy and it reminded me of it.

I saw a lecture by this guy a few years ago. He lives a couple of miles from me. He was presenting a bunch of birds of prey and told this story about a mature GoldenEagle he was nursing back to health. He had it in a huge cage in his back yard. The neighbor had a german shepard that he let run free. (illegal in the area). The dog would come over and bark and jump at the cage and harrass the eagle. Earl went over to the neighbor and asked him to keep the dog chained and off his property because he was bothering the bird. The neighbor said "HEY...HE'S A DOG...WHAT ARE YA GONNA DO???"
So Earl goes home...takes the eagle out of his cage and chains him to a big Tee bar with a 10 ft. tether in the back yard. A few hours later...he looks out back. There is the eagle sitting on top of the dead dogs head with his talons embedded in the dogs skull. Earl takes the dog over to the neighbors house...lays him on the porch and rings the doorbell. The guy comes to the door and Earl tells him..."HEY...HE'S AN EAGLE...WHAT ARE YA GONNA DO????"
haha..man I would have loved to see the look on that guys face.
:lol:
