OT: Natural Selection Wins Again
This story has so many things that left me shaking my head, I really dont know where to start.
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/man-mauled-to-death-while-trying-to-take-selfie-with-a-bear/ar-AAwTRBV?li=BBnbfcL
attempting to take picture with wild bear.
approaching injured wild animal
people videoing the incident instead of trying to help
the need for selfie free zones due to to many people dying while attempting to take a picture of themselves.
did I miss any? seriously how Fd up can this world get. I honestly think cell phones and their use will bring about the end of our species before anything else we are currently worrying about.
Why isn't Chuck Foreman in the Hall of Fame?

This thread gettin' real.... and good! Jayzuz, do you people want interest/posters.... or not? Sorry to break it to ya, but it's not "all Vikings, all the time"
BTW, VikeShrink (that's who I think you're referencing) is a reluctant poster on the "uber-conservative" site, lol.

You do realize that the ST board is visible and available to anybody that wants to use it right? That it takes no other actions to see those threads than to hit recent discussions or the special topics tabs on the side. It's actually a pretty slick set up of you weren't looking for a reason to bitch. Thus far anybody that's asked has been given access and nobody has been banned from it.... and those that are here strictly for football aren't bothered by sorting through topics they don't care about for the most part.This one should have been moved but I was away for a while. If it continues on its religious path I will move it over and grant any that ask permission to play it out. Not every board has to be a free for all to be popular.
As far as VS, and where he posts, what's your point? I said he enjoyed the political stuff and our ST board wasn't as active as the horn site, but I remember it was a band that he was jamming with that was taking him away from the boards IIRC.

Gotcha. Thanks. I thought I had seen him over there at times. I lurk on some of the theads, but don't really want to get drawn into to much or any issues from the past so I don't post. Thanks again, Jim
I do not like where this thread went.... with most involved in it, aside from those that are just having a discussion about normal stuff.

I don't know what your original post was (before you edited it), but I hope it had something to do with one particular poster taking this thread in a completely different direction. It seems to me that he was responsible for "where this thread went". Responses after that have varied, but the common link in all of the "stuff" you did not like... was one particular poster.

correct. greed saw an opportunity to take a shot and delighted in that. Pumpf, my words to you stand. if read what i referenced and understood it, i believe you would agree with me. unfortunately, you think your a champion when you are actually a loser

its ok guys, please let this go. If you two would like to have a theological discussion we have the ST board of if you would like to make it a private affair there are private messages. either way please cease the calling out and juvenile name calling.
and if this gets moved i wont be going to look at it. i asked greed to ban me from ST to avoid all this crap. but if its put right in front of me I am required to address it.
@"Bullazin" said: and if this gets moved i wont be going to look at it. i asked greed to ban me from ST to avoid all this crap. but if its put right in front of me I am required to address it.fair enough, but if you both agree to cease fire it will be over. so lets put down our guns for now?
EDIT: I looked at our contracts, we actually are NOT required to respond to anything that we choose not to respond to... so you will be ok if you want to walk away. ;)
so... ive gotten into making cured and fresh sausage this winter... you name it we are giving it a whirl. so far weve done breakfast patties, links, country style, polish, brats, summer sausage, and snack sticks, I also made some amazing pastrami out of goose breasts. Next week I think we will be trying something called ground formed bacon. anybody else every heard of this, make this, or have any input on this product? you take ground meat (pork and goose for me) and add cure, salt, sugar, and any seasonings and then press it into a cake pan to mold it, dump it out onto a rack and then smoke it to about 140 degrees. let it cool, cut into slices and then fry like bacon. anybody?
oh yeah, and ring bologna... really damn good ring bologna.

And the pig, because it parts the hoof but does not chew the cud, is unclean for you. Their flesh you shall not eat, and their carcasses you shall not touch.
:p
every now & then I crave something my Dad loved... Blood Sausage ! There was a place in Cold Spring & the Cities had a couple good meat markets that made it like the old country with barley...

ewww. you ever heard of the saying dont ask whats in the sausage, just enjoy it? well when the icky part is in the name it pretty hard to ignore. I grew up in a meat packing town so i have heard every horror story imaginable from people that try to get me to quit eating processed meat products, but blood sausage, head cheese, etc... eww, just eww. but hey, if we all liked the same things it would be one boring ass world. get your dracula on if it makes you feel good.
