He had a story up about an old man walking a deer to the truck. It made me remember a story that a complete stranger told me about my own grandfather.&lt;br /&gt;I was working for a contractor at Intell in Rio Rancho. The line foreman asked me if I was related to a certain man that was my granpa. After I admitted it he told me this story. Which, after no small amount of badgering, was confirmed from the horses, well mules mouth.&lt;br /&gt;In the early seventies, the were still a lot of mule deer here. Not 20 miles away from Belen. Mule deer, or real deer, are twice the size as those dogs with antlers they call white tails. My grandfather and an group of about 10 other hunters went to fourth of July canyon in the manzano mountains. The hunters faned out, each going off in a different direction. After awhile my grandpa saw and shot a large eight piont buck. He shot him with a large caliber rifle, but when he walked up on the deer it got up. And just stood there. My grandfather, being about 6 miles from the truck grabbed the deer by the tail and started pushing him down the mountain. Things went well until they got about halfway there. The buck stopped shook its head and snapped out of it. When it noticed the 6' tall man holding its tail it took evasive action. Turning and knocking him down, in a large prickly pear catus, started to stager back up the moutain. My grandpa, got up and shot him again. Killing him this time. He got him home.&lt;br /&gt;All this would be funny, except about 5 years later, in the same canyon he did the same thing. Only he missed the catus that time.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10452148-113452556736800039?l=nmrant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/feeds/113452556736800039/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10452148&amp;postID=113452556736800039' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/113452556736800039'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/113452556736800039'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/2005/12/mule-deer-vs-old-fart.html' title='Mule deer vs. Old Fart'/><author><name>Australopithecus_africanus</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10588741632955580347</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='27' src='http://economorigen.galeon.com/imagenes/australopithecusafricanus1.jpeg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10452148.post-113445335284864802</id><published>2005-12-12T21:56:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2005-12-12T22:55:52.866-07:00</updated><title type='text'>THE WORM...</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1972/809/1600/07WORM184.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1972/809/320/07WORM184.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      Yes, I'v been gone. I know everyone missed me. Both of you. This is a scary story, so if you spook easy you should'nt read this.&lt;br /&gt;      About three weeks ago I noticed something funny going on. My PC was a little sluggish. Out come the scanners. They tell me that everything is okie dokie. Then all My Yahoo stuff quits working. Crap. I really dig this time, and still find nothing. At this time msn and explorer quit letting me go to the places that I go to all the time. My most used web sites are these blogger sites. Instead I am directed to a site that promises that they can remove the spyware that I am infested with. Well for 75$ they can. So, being the stuborn ass that I am, I send them a strongly worded e-mail telling them what they can do with thier spyware. And what I thought of them and several of thier family members. I mean they put it there, I did'nt want it, they can just take it back for free.&lt;br /&gt;      After several trys at the normal stuff, McAfee, Microsoft and a spyware killer or two,I realized that this was gonna suck. And it did. At a forum dedicated to helping people get rid of this stuff I found derictions on how to remove it from my system. A long and complacated list of go here do this then that. Which only served to enlighten myself to things you should never touch on your computer.&lt;br /&gt;      I also found out that I don't have a virus or adware, or even spyware. Its a worm. A worm is an erant program that these companys set up in places that you go to sneek into your computer. The product that they sell only removes the program that they gave you. They can do other things, but I'm talking about the one that I had.&lt;br /&gt;You can get this one by just getting online, says the PC geek that was trying to help me get loose of my growing mess. It regenarates parts that you manage to whak off, move to new spots, and kills programs on you computer that you could use to kill it. At the end of week two, "Hey I said I was stuborn" I finaly decided to use my last resort, system recovery. This is on a partitioned spot on the harddrive. It returnes the computer to is factory condition. Like you never owned it. Except, the worm has eat'in this also. The files that start it are gone. And three days of looking for them did me no good at all.&lt;br /&gt;      By now I'm getting ready to go shoping. I was sitting there about to pull the plug when I saw something I had'nt tried. HP Tools. I ran the program and, after awile it told me I'm screwed. Then it sent me to another spot for recovery directions. I went to my Dads house and got on line there. In a area of HP suport I found a spot where you can chat with a real person who knows whats going on. WOW. He gave me instrutions on how to make a set of rescue disks, which is basicaly putting the recovery system on disk, and told me how to use them. It took six hours to make the disks and another two hours to use them. But here I am. After an entire day of reloading programs back onto my puter. Heavy sigh.&lt;br /&gt;      Thinking back on all this the only moral to this adventure could be is. DON'T GET ON-LINE. Yeah right.&lt;br /&gt;      My one wish is to meet the people that could do this to other peoples computers and still sleep at night. I'm thinking of hanging them by the balls until they fall off, then hanging them by something else.&lt;br /&gt;      On a final note, If you can make recovery disks, do it right now. You only have to do it once. And you might not be a stuborn ass, like myself.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10452148-113445335284864802?l=nmrant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/feeds/113445335284864802/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10452148&amp;postID=113445335284864802' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/113445335284864802'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/113445335284864802'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/2005/12/worm.html' title='THE WORM...'/><author><name>Australopithecus_africanus</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10588741632955580347</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='27' src='http://economorigen.galeon.com/imagenes/australopithecusafricanus1.jpeg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10452148.post-113224687877681656</id><published>2005-11-17T09:51:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2005-11-17T10:05:07.843-07:00</updated><title type='text'>To Somewhere?</title><content type='html'>I had this up before.

But, it was worth the effort.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1972/809/1600/finished%20%281%29.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1972/809/320/finished%20%281%29.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1972/809/1600/finished.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1972/809/320/finished.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We did the little shed in the back to match.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1972/809/1600/finished%20%285%29.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1972/809/320/finished%20%285%29.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10452148-113155273673018963?l=nmrant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/feeds/113155273673018963/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10452148&amp;postID=113155273673018963' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/113155273673018963'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/113155273673018963'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/2005/11/been-out-of-it.html' title='Been out of it.'/><author><name>Australopithecus_africanus</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10588741632955580347</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='27' src='http://economorigen.galeon.com/imagenes/australopithecusafricanus1.jpeg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10452148.post-113155133017743781</id><published>2005-11-09T08:45:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2005-11-09T08:48:50.196-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Womans work.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1972/809/1600/backup_s.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1972/809/320/backup_s.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10452148-113155133017743781?l=nmrant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/feeds/113155133017743781/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10452148&amp;postID=113155133017743781' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/113155133017743781'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/113155133017743781'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/2005/11/womans-work.html' title='Womans work.'/><author><name>Australopithecus_africanus</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10588741632955580347</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='27' src='http://economorigen.galeon.com/imagenes/australopithecusafricanus1.jpeg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10452148.post-113094621893872146</id><published>2005-11-02T08:36:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2005-11-02T08:47:47.420-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Robbed this from here.</title><content type='html'>I really had alot of &lt;a href="http://www.thesurrealist.co.uk/slogan.cgi?word=bitch"&gt;time wasting fun with this.&lt;/a&gt;Just type in a word or name and poof, well not really a poof but, you get the idea.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Moms Like You Choose Bitch.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Best Beer Under One Roof.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Schhh...

"Greetings, Earthling. We come in peace. Take us to your leader."&lt;br /&gt;The gas pump (of course) didn't respond.&lt;br /&gt;The younger alien started to get mad at the lack of response and the older one&lt;br /&gt;said, "I wouldn't do that if I were you."&lt;br /&gt;The younger alien ignored the warning and repeated the greeting.&lt;br /&gt;Again, there was no response.&lt;br /&gt;Annoyed by what he perceived to be the pump's haughty attitude, he drew his ray&lt;br /&gt;gun and said impatiently, "Greetings Earthling. We come in peace. Do not ignore&lt;br /&gt;us in this way! Take us to your leader, or I will fire."&lt;br /&gt;The older alien again warned his comrade, "You don't want to do that; You really&lt;br /&gt;don't want to make him mad!"&lt;br /&gt;"Rubbish,!" replied the younger alien. He aimed his weapon at the pump and&lt;br /&gt;fired.&lt;br /&gt;There was a huge explosion.&lt;br /&gt;A massive fireball roared outwards and towards them and blew the younger alien&lt;br /&gt;off his feet and deposited him in a burnt and crumpled mess 200 yards away in a&lt;br /&gt;cactus patch.&lt;br /&gt;Thirty Earth minutes later, when he finally regained consciousness, refocused&lt;br /&gt;his three eyes and straightened his bent antenna, he looked dazedly up at the&lt;br /&gt;wiser one, who was standing over him, slowly shaking his big green head.&lt;br /&gt;"What a ferocious creature," said the young fried one. "It damn near killed us!&lt;br /&gt;How did you know it was so dangerous?"&lt;br /&gt;The older alien leaned over, and said "If there's one thing I've learned during&lt;br /&gt;my travels through the galaxy," "When a guy has a pecker he can wrap around&lt;br /&gt;himself and stick it in his ear; you don't mess with him."&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10452148-113004347008515118?l=nmrant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/feeds/113004347008515118/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10452148&amp;postID=113004347008515118' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/113004347008515118'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/113004347008515118'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/2005/10/funny_22.html' title='Funny?'/><author><name>Australopithecus_africanus</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10588741632955580347</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='27' src='http://economorigen.galeon.com/imagenes/australopithecusafricanus1.jpeg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10452148.post-113000519489903789</id><published>2005-10-22T12:02:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2005-10-22T12:19:54.906-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Well,,,</title><content type='html'>It's been a busy week.

Shot the pistol from 30 feet for awhile, hitting dead on most of the time. Them move back to 150 feet. Now our targets are 8" iron pigs. All of them, no ducks,deer, or dogs. I thought it strange that our range is the only one I've ever been to the only had one kind of target. Anyway, 30' is about the range this pistol is made to be used at, and its very effective with in this range. At 150' your well outside what I would call Its effective range. I still hit near,within one foot of, the target, But rarely hit it. Our club expert, an old fart that shoots pistols every week, tells me that I'm doing really good to get that close consistently. With fixed iron sights on a pistol I've fired less than 200 times. He noted that if I were trying to shoot a large animal, instead of an 8" target, I would be hitting it. That made me feel better. I'm still going to Wally-World to get more ammo for next week.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10452148-112932532044357637?l=nmrant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/feeds/112932532044357637/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10452148&amp;postID=112932532044357637' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/112932532044357637'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/112932532044357637'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/2005/10/range.html' title='The Range'/><author><name>Australopithecus_africanus</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10588741632955580347</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='27' src='http://economorigen.galeon.com/imagenes/australopithecusafricanus1.jpeg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10452148.post-112922870725967315</id><published>2005-10-13T11:56:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2005-10-13T12:40:34.510-06:00</updated><title type='text'>The American Pit Terrier</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1972/809/1600/pit%20bull.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1972/809/320/pit%20bull.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Every year, year in, year out people in New Mexico read stories in the paper just like &lt;a href="http://www.thenewmexicochannel.com/news/5093866/detail.html"&gt;this one&lt;/a&gt;. The only variations are the age or sex of the victim. The ones that have the worst time of it are the kids. The grown man was brought to the ground by a pair of these killers. At least one kid dies here every year because of them. Yet because of the stupidity of local officials and state government it will continue as it always has. I can hear that ladies voice in my head. Their not mean. Their not dangerous. Despite the fact that they just tried to kill a person. She just love her babies. Well its not just pit bulls they cry. And they are right. I can remember one case in my life that it wasn't a pit bull. It was a half lab half rotie. But there is a big difference between one and 6-10 per year. Its my opinion that pit bulls should be killed. All of them. Right now. Hell I'll pay for the bullets. When I moved into my neiborhood there were two houses with pits. One was loose and we called the Dog catcher. He was afraid of the dog. Refused to even try to get it. My dad got it for him. A .223 at about 40 yards. Over the years we got the rest of them also. Legally, one at a time. Our Govt's fix for the problem. Taxing people who own dangerous dogs, yes they are democrats. They call it something else. Now the govt' has more money, we still have the pit bulls. The dog in the picture MAULED a seven year old boy.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10452148-112922870725967315?l=nmrant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/feeds/112922870725967315/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10452148&amp;postID=112922870725967315' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/112922870725967315'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/112922870725967315'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/2005/10/american-pit-terrier.html' title='The American Pit Terrier'/><author><name>Australopithecus_africanus</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10588741632955580347</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='27' src='http://economorigen.galeon.com/imagenes/australopithecusafricanus1.jpeg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10452148.post-112913489660968575</id><published>2005-10-12T10:20:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2005-10-12T10:34:56.616-06:00</updated><title type='text'>My Favorite Joke</title><content type='html'>A truck driver was crusing down the road when he noticed a woman hitchin a ride.

So he picked it up a little. She still wanted more speed so she told him she would take off her shirt if he went faster. He did, so she did.

My neighbors used to have 8 of them. I called my dad and told him what I saw move in, and this is what we came up with. It works so well that we got all eight of those cats in three nights. Then left it set for another month just to see what wondered through. We caught a total of 37 cats in this trap, and never got caught. It is loud when it goes off. The cats never so much as squeaked. The biggest problem we had was finding places to dump the bodies, but isn't it always like that.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10452148-112905748768805382?l=nmrant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/feeds/112905748768805382/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10452148&amp;postID=112905748768805382' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/112905748768805382'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/112905748768805382'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/2005/10/nice-kitty.html' title='Nice kitty'/><author><name>Australopithecus_africanus</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10588741632955580347</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='27' src='http://economorigen.galeon.com/imagenes/australopithecusafricanus1.jpeg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10452148.post-112900101666259154</id><published>2005-10-10T20:54:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2005-10-10T21:23:36.676-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Fishing</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1972/809/1600/fish%20with%20tail.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1972/809/320/fish%20with%20tail.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fishing, in my great state is for most people just like anywhere else. Unless you want to catch lots of nice fish, all the time. And by all the time I mean 70-95% of the time. Here are the rules that I follow to have a good trip.&lt;br /&gt;Rule one- Take my dad with you. This is not hard to do. He has been fishing here almost as long as we have been a state. If dad is not around my uncle is just as good. They have a real good idea of where,when and what. Don't ever go alone.&lt;br /&gt;Rule two- Use very strong line. We do most of our fishing in the Rio Grand. Its a fast running, full of tree branches and sharp rocks kinda river. A five pound fish in the current is like a 15 pound fish.&lt;br /&gt;Rule three- Be aware. Unless you go down to the lake to fish chances are your in the middle of nowhere. Snakes, wild dogs including coyotes at night aaarooooooo ,creepy, and unsavory people can shorten you trip if your not careful.The spot in the picture, yes thats me like my glasses, is a long hard drive to help. The road is little more than two places where the weeds have been knocked down.&lt;br /&gt;Also you might want to remember that this is a desert. Drink more water than usual, we share the same sun as arizona and its a mean one.&lt;br /&gt;All other info is need to know. So pppttthhh&lt;&lt;&lt; big long rasburry...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10452148-112900101666259154?l=nmrant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/feeds/112900101666259154/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10452148&amp;postID=112900101666259154' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/112900101666259154'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/112900101666259154'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/2005/10/fishing.html' title='Fishing'/><author><name>Australopithecus_africanus</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10588741632955580347</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='27' src='http://economorigen.galeon.com/imagenes/australopithecusafricanus1.jpeg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10452148.post-112897952698326645</id><published>2005-10-10T15:23:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2005-10-10T15:25:26.990-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Hail to the chief!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1972/809/1600/li75t.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1972/809/320/li75t.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; I know its old, but I couldn't help it.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10452148-112897952698326645?l=nmrant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/feeds/112897952698326645/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10452148&amp;postID=112897952698326645' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/112897952698326645'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/112897952698326645'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/2005/10/hail-to-chief.html' title='Hail to the chief!!'/><author><name>Australopithecus_africanus</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10588741632955580347</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='27' src='http://economorigen.galeon.com/imagenes/australopithecusafricanus1.jpeg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10452148.post-112897419132717272</id><published>2005-10-10T13:03:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2005-10-10T15:42:00.796-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Pistols</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1972/809/1600/247L.gif"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1972/809/320/247L.gif" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  Well. That shoot myself in the foot thing, in my profile, is not really true. Now,It's not really that far from the truth either. I did manage to qualify with one in the army, a 1911a1. Back before the Gov't gave our troops girlie guns. "They were afraid we might hurt someone". Anyway, There wasn't really much need for me to own a pistol. I go hunting from time to time, I cant be described as an avid hunter, not even every year. When I shoot something with my rifle its dead and stays that way. I have been shooting rifles as long as I can remember, and qualified as a U.S. Army sharpshooter.No need for a pistol shot in the head to put it down. I do go fishing a lot. A stick works on rattlesnakes just as well as any gun. Maybe better,a gun tears up a lot of meat,and ruins the skin.&lt;br /&gt;  So, why the sudden interest in pistols? Home defense. For the first time in my life I'm worried about home defense. When it was just me a stick was just fine. Of course when it was just me I could replace everything in the house with 50 dollars. Now Its me and three little ones. There are three drug dealers and one sex offender within two blocks of my house. And this is the good part of town. Gangs of kids that their drug addicted parents sent out cruse the streets looking for something that isn't tide down to steal. Smile and wave at uncle policeman as he drives by. Not to mention the 2 or 3 hundred thousand illeagles that walk by every year. They aren't any better. The last straw was 5 nights ago my home was the only one on my street that did'nt get robbed. And I think its because the dog woke me up and I scard them away turning on lights, I didn't find out about the robberies untill mourning.&lt;br /&gt;  The one pictured above is the one that I will use to pratice with and use for the defense of my home. I pick it up tomorrow. Its a Ruger P345.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10452148-112897419132717272?l=nmrant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/feeds/112897419132717272/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10452148&amp;postID=112897419132717272' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/112897419132717272'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/112897419132717272'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/2005/10/pistols.html' title='Pistols'/><author><name>Australopithecus_africanus</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10588741632955580347</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='27' src='http://economorigen.galeon.com/imagenes/australopithecusafricanus1.jpeg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10452148.post-112888533279306741</id><published>2005-10-09T12:46:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2005-10-09T13:15:32.800-06:00</updated><title type='text'>What's that?</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1972/809/1600/rain%20%282%29.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1972/809/320/rain%20%282%29.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For those of you that live in other parts of the world this is something your used to seeing from time to time. For those of you that live in my town, this is a rain storm. Not just any old rain storm,noooooo. This is a right outside my door rain storm. Now Belen New Mexico is famous for...mmmmm. Well the railroad goes through here. The town is very old so there must be something. I mean besides a large population of crack whores. Oh well, it just stared to Rain. Our summer monsoon, a new turm to me, Just arrived. Now we see rain storms a lot here, it just never rains. In Albuquerque just 30 miles to the north it rains a lot. In soccorro, a scant 45 to the south you might be washed away. Here in Belen we get the fly bye storms that always promise water but never deliver. I planted, or rather transplanted, Afracan bermuda grass," I don't get the name", last year and watered it with the hose. It was doing very well. This year it was on its own. It died, deader than dog shit. It was so dry that not even the weeds would grow. Goat head stickers did'nt even come up. Not one time did I have to go to my dad's and mow thier yard. Well so it's not all bad. The storm is gone by now and, wait let me peek, Allmost enough to get the rain guage wet. We did pretty good this time.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10452148-112888533279306741?l=nmrant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/feeds/112888533279306741/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10452148&amp;postID=112888533279306741' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/112888533279306741'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/112888533279306741'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/2005/10/whats-that.html' title='What&apos;s that?'/><author><name>Australopithecus_africanus</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10588741632955580347</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='27' src='http://economorigen.galeon.com/imagenes/australopithecusafricanus1.jpeg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10452148.post-112878932473762190</id><published>2005-10-08T10:22:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2005-10-08T10:35:24.746-06:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1972/809/1600/s_hotwelcome.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1972/809/320/s_hotwelcome.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10452148-112878932473762190?l=nmrant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/feeds/112878932473762190/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10452148&amp;postID=112878932473762190' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/112878932473762190'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/112878932473762190'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/2005/10/blog-post_08.html' title=''/><author><name>Australopithecus_africanus</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10588741632955580347</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='27' src='http://economorigen.galeon.com/imagenes/australopithecusafricanus1.jpeg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10452148.post-112878801460025523</id><published>2005-10-08T10:05:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2005-10-08T10:13:34.610-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Putting The Ex To Work</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1972/809/1600/40600005.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1972/809/320/40600005.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While I recover from my boute with pneumonia, something i'd wish on nobody, the ex-wife was nice enough to come over and do some of the house work that I have'nt been doing.

But to honestly think that having Fuckers on your shirt isn't going to offend anyone, really, get a brain.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10452148-112872092199917429?l=nmrant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/feeds/112872092199917429/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10452148&amp;postID=112872092199917429' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/112872092199917429'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/112872092199917429'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/2005/10/freedom-of-speech.html' title='Freedom of Speech?'/><author><name>Australopithecus_africanus</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10588741632955580347</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='27' src='http://economorigen.galeon.com/imagenes/australopithecusafricanus1.jpeg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10452148.post-112870839461608167</id><published>2005-10-07T12:01:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2005-10-07T12:08:30.836-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Local business owner fails to pay Mafia protection money, store robbed</title><content type='html'>Owner Hadn't Paid, So Firefighters Let Mobile Home Burn&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;POSTED: 10:37 am MDT October 7, 2005&lt;br /&gt;UPDATED: 10:53 am MDT October 7, 2005&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;INTERNATIONAL FALLS, Minn. -- There's outrage in northern Minnesota after firefighters allowed a man's mobile home to burn.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Carl Berg had failed to pay the $25 annual fee required for fire protection for homes outside International Falls city limits. Berg said he couldn't afford the fee or fire insurance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He said he lost everything in last month's fire.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The fire department poured enough water to put the fire out temporarily and make sure everyone was safe, but when the blaze rekindled later, firefighters let the flames destroy what was left.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fire Chief Jerry Jensen said he doesn't want to see that happen again. He said a firefighter's job is to "put out fires, not to watch them burn."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Local officials have been haggling for two years over how to pay for fire protection. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;_________________________________________________&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  Hey, close enough. read it &lt;a href="http://www.thenewmexicochannel.com/news/5071101/detail.html"&gt;yourself here.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10452148-112870839461608167?l=nmrant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/feeds/112870839461608167/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10452148&amp;postID=112870839461608167' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/112870839461608167'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/112870839461608167'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/2005/10/local-business-owner-fails-to-pay.html' title='Local business owner fails to pay Mafia protection money, store robbed'/><author><name>Australopithecus_africanus</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10588741632955580347</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='27' src='http://economorigen.galeon.com/imagenes/australopithecusafricanus1.jpeg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10452148.post-112869667018945312</id><published>2005-10-07T08:43:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2005-10-07T08:51:10.196-06:00</updated><title type='text'>The Real Sophia Sue</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1972/809/1600/4-11-05.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1972/809/320/4-11-05.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I bought this little cutie pie for the family last christmas.

Whether for one side or the other they don't represent a real cross section of America. OK So they do. But not a what the MAJORITY of what Americans think. Well, sometimes they do that to. What I am pointing out is the protesters themselves. Why aren't they at work? Is home a place you just visit while the president is out of country? Why, if you want people to listen to you, do you present your self as a total loon? I, for my part, believe most of them have nothing better to do that day and hope that they can get on the tube. However a group of protesters have gotten my attn. I do not indorse their cause. I do however prefer there style of protest to all others.&lt;br /&gt;So here they are. &lt;a href="http://www.sexyandfunny.com/NoMoreBush.shtml"&gt;Adult content&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10452148-112865307325366719?l=nmrant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/feeds/112865307325366719/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10452148&amp;postID=112865307325366719' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/112865307325366719'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10452148/posts/default/112865307325366719'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nmrant.blogspot.com/2005/10/protesters.html' title='The Protesters.'/><author><name>Australopithecus_africanus</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10588741632955580347</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='27' src='http://economorigen.galeon.com/imagenes/australopithecusafricanus1.jpeg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10452148.post-112865178239874213</id><published>2005-10-06T20:10:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2005-10-06T20:23:02.403-06:00</updated><title type='text'>A QUESTION</title><content type='html'>I was sitting here today, dyeing of punomyia,numonyia.

If I'm pointing up and I just happen to have someone from Australia on the phone and ask him to point up, well, were pointing two different directions. Aren't we. So, if a guy in one space ship meets another guy in a spaceship and their ships are vertical opposite of each other, how do they decide who is up and who isn't?
