I don't think I've ever met a celebrity- except for Morris the Cat and he wasn't impressed with me at all.

I met one of the guys from Land of the Giants once.... he lives in San Diego .... working for El Cajon Ford as a used car salesman...

He drove with me to show the car to the family... so every one met him... LOL.

Ooh and I have seen William De Vane..... and Bill Shatner at horse shows. Both rode Saddlebreds aeons ago....

Justin Vehver: I look nothing like snoop dog. I look more like the lead singer of the black crows in the song "she talks to angels" plus a beard and 50 lbs. Btw it is an excellent song

I almost spit out my coffee

LOVE Pulp Fiction....   Actually, I'm a fan of most Quentin Tarantino films.

Love Tarantino, Django was great.

Never heard of "one tree hill"

I thought I was isolated... Even I have heard of that show

Vehve - Finland has movies??? Black and white or talkies????

Loved Sin City 1 & 2 - can't believe the second one flopped. Young whippersnappers just don't like good movies.

as to building for bears...nah..... most people up here, if they live in a known bear corridor put up lots of electric wire, not concrete block.

Concrete block is scary expensive...so heavy you see.


Me, I am gonna pretend the bears don't exist, until one eats some poultry, and then I will use electric fence.

I did have one come look at my turkey poults last year...but one of the boys saw him, and I ran out yelling and screaming at him (in my haste to get outside, I couldn't find the gun! just the BBs and pellet guns! ) Anyway, yelling and screaming like a crazy person (easy for me to do) worked well enough. I actually had to keep it up for awhile, because he just ran off a few feet, then looked back at me, etc. But, since he hadn't eaten the feed or the poults, he had no incentive to return... and he didn't. Which was good, since all I did was make a latch for the door that he had opened. (before, since it stuck closed, we didn't have a latch, and he just walked up and opened it.)

My coop, almost done!!!! Just need a perch, and nest boxes, and to close up the gaps in the pallet wall.

Finished the fence and most of the poop shelf today!

I was searching through the dump hoping for a 2x4 for the perches, because I am ALL OUT of any wood longer than 5 feet, and I found two fantastic 2x8 sheets of plywood, reenforced with 2x2s and NICE screws! (starting to run low on screws). All I had to do was trim off a few inches, take off the 2x2 that was in the wrong spot, and TADA! a poop shelf!!!

pictures!

Looks good - ya know if you wired for electric fencing maybe you could add Xmas lights - it would look so festive
