Grizzlies Don't Appreciate Santana
« on: August 23, 2004, 06:37:26 PM »
Last Thursday night, my hunting partner killed a Caribou on our way into our hunting area.  I went and started setting up camp while he gutted the animal.  Suddenly he came in kind of pale and excited.  "There's a Grizzly that wants the meat" he says.  "You need to come down and watch my back while I finish".  I got on my 4-wheeler and went down to the kill site.  There was a sow with a cub sitting looking over the kill.  We shot into the air, no affect.  I thought I would try and entice her off the site with a tape of squalling baby bears.  I rode off about 100 yards and stuck the baby bear tape in my Johnny Stewart tape player, No good.  I was looking to see if I had something else in the box that might work.  There was a tape of Carlos Santana, My teenager had been using my tape player to play music for his friends.  I stuck it in Santana, it did the trick, she left.  So we finished dressing out the caribou while jamming to Black Magic Woman.

What Is A Veteran?
A 'Veteran' -- whether active duty, discharged, retired, or reserve -- is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America,' for an amount of 'up to, and including his life.' That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country today who no longer understand that fact.

That bear has bad taste for music.  :D

I once met a nice old guy who spent summers by himself in a cabin at the confluence of the Yentna and Susitna Rivers.  He was too blind to shoot so packed around a big battery radio tuned to an Anchorage rock and roll station.  Worked for him and you could hear him coming.  That was before the days when it was cool for kids to bop around with a boom box on their shouler.  He was ahead of his time  :)  

Also Fish and Game used to scare beluga whales out of the outlets of Bristol Bay salmon streams in the spring to protect the little salmon headed to sea.  They used killer whale sounds with a hydro phone then alternated with rock and roll.  Couldn't leave it on all the time but turning it on for a while every few hours sure disrupted the whales and sent them scrambling for a while.
