The Nutritional Deer Hunting Venture

The mental and physical stress of the genuine deer hunt is common knowledge.  Preparation, including necessary habitat research as well as the proper equipment acquisition and tuning, is very demanding and energy absorbing.  For this reason, most of the actual season is directed toward a feeding frenzy enabling the hunter to store up gobs of energy to be utilized in preparation for the following season. 

This can be accomplished only through the consumption of a very special selection of high energy, intellectually stimulating foods.  The primarily deer hunter diet consists of

none other than CHILI.  Obviously, it must be Venison Chili, or it will not provide the necessary energy level.

Following in importance, but not necessarily in the order in which they are consumed, are:

               Pickled Turkey Gizzards

               Pickled Pigs Feet

               Pickled Eggs

               Smelly Cheese (Over aged Brick or Limburger preferred)

               Any other foods that the little boys and girls in attendance desire

Although the CHILI can be consumed for all three meals-particularly with eggs in the morning- it is suggested that the other optional foods be consumed after 10:00AM.

We have found that following this diet closely will enable the Deer Hunter to prevail in his quest of the quarry and have energy left over to help in the preparation for next season’s hunt.

If you need further elaboration on acquisition, or preparation of this stimulating diet, don’t call.  Just ask any Deer hunter you know.  

Big Junk Boom

We are in the midst of a big junk boom

So much that I must look for room

Room for current accumulation

Of what I call possession inflation

As I look through the house to find storage space

I search endlessly for any such place

That would serve to help hide recent additions

And force those treasures into attrition

For we all know those treasures can soon overwhelm

If somebody doesn’t take over the helm

And help place our ship on a much straighter course

To nip in the bud the mysterious source

So look for the boxes with their mouths open wide

And fill them with items you can no longer hide

Those items whose usefulness can no longer be measured

Could very well end up as some other’s treasures.
