Finally made the front page. The cat is 20-year old Willey, who, like me, is a native Detroiter.

BAP and Buffalo Roaming in Ruby Valley, Montana

October 2011

This shot is taken in front of the Ted Turner Ranch.  Those are his buffalo and I wasn't about to robin-hood one of them.

We shot no elk.  We did see elk cows.  My friend Henry Lievens attempted a very long shot, actually four shots, at a monster bull elk more than 400 yards distant, with his .338.  He came close--rocks fragmented above and below where the elk was crossing the mountain side.  It reminded me of the joke about the three statisticians who went elk hunting: the first saw a distant elk, leveled his rifle and fired; the shot struck three feet low; the second in turn fired his rifle, and it hit three feet high on the rocky slope; said the third, "We got him."  They were, of course, social statisticians, working for the Obama administration.  

We didn't get him. No meat for us, although we share a better sense of reality testing than the social statisticians and those whom they inform.  We did see four moose, a few hundred antelope. a few hundred mule deer,  two astonishing foxes that behaved as if they had never seem humans before and a shrew-like creature that lived at about 9,000 feet.

It was a great hunt.

GUN RIGHTS POLICY CONFERENCE 2011 CHICAGO

Above is a collage of a few of the bumper stickers and decals distributed by the Second Amendment Foundation, the host of the conference.

Below, please find the three-page agenda highlighting the many accomplished speakers, authors, scholars, attorneys and gun culture activists who gathered there--a horizontal interpretive community that has created the new political-social reality of American Gun Culture. If you wish to understand, in part, why America is such a great and creative nation, then you should attend this conference next year. Here there are gathered many people worthy of emulation. Virtue is not merely an old-fashioned word.

Below, at the end of this entry, overlaying the third page of the agenda, are the notes from my presentation. The only similarity I can claim with the Gettysburg Address is that both were written on an envelope.
