Wordless Wednesday
So what do you think … did the cat get the Seagull or not? It certainly looks like the came close doesn’t it?
Man upset over lack of beer shoots family goat!
A Wis. man, Peter W. Mischler, 48, came home on a Saturday after he’d been out hunting. He was upset with his 22 year old daughter, who was talking on the phone with her mother at the time, as she had let the goats out and they’d made a mess.
While the daughter was still on the phone the man told his daughter to ask her mother to bring home some beer but the wife refused.
Angrily he threatened to shoot the goats if she didn’t bring home beer.
She didn’t bring any beer home and shortly after she arrived back at the house the mother and daughter heard four gunshots outside. They went outside and found one of their two goats with it’s entrails hanging out.
Mischler was charged in Circuit Court with mistreatment of animals, possession of a firearm while intoxicated and disorderly conduct with a dangerous weapon.
The poor injured goat was shot by a deputy to put it out of it’s misery.
Mischler posted $1000 cash bond and was released. No word on whether he returned home to his wife and daughter.
Blind allowed to hunt in Texas
Did you know that last year the Texas State Legislature passed a bill allowing the blind to hunt? Of course they must bring a sighted companion along and also use a laser guide to aide their shot.
Apparently when using the laser guide all one has to do is point the laser where they think the animal is and there sighted companion can tell them if their shot is lined up. I’m not sure how that’s all that different than just trusting the sighted companions eyes …
I guess as long as it’s not the blind leading the blind …
Metal mooses?
Photo Theme. Visit participants. |
This weeks theme is Metal
Mooses? I don’t think that there’s a plural for moose …
We took this photo of a metal moose while attending an Art fair here in Toronto. This moose is made out of a recycled oil tank!
This second moose was found in front of a Chicago building.
Do you have interesting animal artwork or statues in your city?
