Oh by the way, my dog is still walking around with this sad expression today. It is as if he is saying, "what smells so bad? It is even on my tongue." This coming from a guy who heads for the garbage can or the compost pile every time we go outside.

Back in 1988 we lived in Pembine Wisconsin. Pretty much out in the woods. We had this dang skunk that was taking up residence in the metal tube under the driveway entrance. It was right in the middle of summer. I did NOT want my dog tangling with it. So one day i went out with my .22, waited for him to stick his head out, and BAM! Sent him to his reward. My buddy Mark was standing about 10 feer in front of me......all of the sudden he turns and starts running, right past me. I got out "What are you...." and the SMELL hit me! Mr. Skunk left us a "parting gift!" Oh man....it was HORRIBLE! GAGGING horrible! I ended up walking over to the gulley, armed with a black plastic bag. I grabbed the skunk by the tail and into the bag he went. Took him out to the woods, and dumped the body.

HA! I have been told by hunters if you kill them properly they will die before spraying one last itme. I don't believe them as their sack of joy juice is still full after their dead.

When I lived in my old house, I had a crawlspace underneath, no basement. skunks, stray cats were underneath. Skunks used to spray underneath and it would come up through the furnace vents and I would have to open windows for days.

I actually shot the skunk in the head! I THOUGHT that would diffuse him....no such luck.

Come to think of it, we do seem to be a few squirrels short here. I know at least one that went to that great "Nut Factory" in the sky last week when it tangled with a garbage truck.

So Packerchick, would you kindly check those squirrels for me. Ours have a maroon and silver tag on the left ear (Montana grizzly colors) which reads;
"I belong to Montana Bob. I am probably lost and can't find my way back to Lolo, Montana. Please call this number and let Bob know that I'm ok."

Thanks for your help. :thumbright:

wpr (10h) : Only 4

Zero2Cool (13h) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!

dfosterf (13h) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am

wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days

beast (18-Apr) : 6 days

wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.

dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.

Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?
