    Now you have done it.  I spent 35 years in Alaska.

    Two old Alaskan hunting buddies finally saved up enough money to take a vacation so they went to Hawaii for 2 weeks.
    They saw all the sights, 
    Near the end of the trip they visited a nude beach to "round-out" their tan.  As the lounged in their loungers, with a drink in hand, they silently watched a very voluptuous young lady slink by, totally nude.  
    Nanuq907 turned to bustedknee and asked, "Woooowee, how would you like to see her in a tight sweater?"

    I can't believe they misspelled "Pork and Beans!"

    NOW we're talking.  Tight sweaters and hip waders on voluptuous huntresses?   
      I understand the current fad is fisherwomen in bikinis, but I can't see that taking hold here.

    I have very fond memories of duck hunting on the Bradley flats and the Fox river on the Kenai.  They were some of the best hunting days of my life hunting the tidal flats, pulling in deeks by rope as the tide rose.  I will never forget the sound of Mergansers flying 6 feet overhead sounding like a jet fighter.  A merganser can fly over 100 MPH.  It is one fast duck.  If you shoot one, wrap it in cow scat, bake at 350 for 35 minutes, toss the Merganser eat the cow scat.  They are fish eaters and taste HORRIBLE.

    I made jerky out of a common merganser.

    Would of made a fortune if I charged for guesses on what the meat was. 😆.

    Even *, it still smelled and tasted of fish.

    Learned real early that ducks with teeth weren't the ones to shoot...

    Oakie, you made me roar with laughter!   They are ducks but not ones meant for human consumption.  Surf Scooters are another fish eater to wrap in cow scat....  Oh my, the memories those trips bring back!

    Accidently killed a big merganser that came in too low and fast. Green head, white breast, bang! Cooked and ate it.  Not as bad as I expected but never  shot another one.

    Same goes with bears.  Once they've been on the salmon, don't eat them.  You want the springtime black bears just out of hibernation that are eating grasses and berries.  They taste like good sirloin steak.  Brown bears are permanently nasty.

    2 0ld Alaskan buddies were drinking Olys in the Denali Bar about 2 am, downtown Anchorage.

    "Ya know, shumpin I really like is ice feeshing - 'bout you?" Asks one.

    "Yep, me too." Replies the other, "I jus wish they wuz someplace round cheer where we could ice fish...I got my stuff ina car."

    "Waaall, I know a place! Get us some Olys tago and I'll show ya."

    ................

    2 0ld Alaskan buddies, full of Olys are standing by a freshly chopped hole in the ice.

    "No feesh!" Exclaims the first one.

    His buddy plops down on the ice, pulls his parka up over his head to block out the light and looks in the hole, "Yer right, ain't no blamed fish down nar." He says.

    A loud voice from above booms, "THERE ARE NO FISH DOWN THERE!"

    "See?" Says the guy sprawled on the ice, "God knows there ain't no fish here."

    The loud voice from above booms again ,...

    .

    .

    .

    "THIS IS NOT GOD -- THIS IS THE RINK MANAGER!"

    I can't believe they misspelled "Pork and Beans!"
