One Sucker's Saga, Part II; The Slippery Slope

[peristaltor]

Read enough of these peristaltic entries and you should get a sense that I subscribe to the Peak Oil theory. Essentially, this Shell geologist named M. King Hubbert gave a speech to his oil industry peers in 1956 showing his calculations. In that speech, he predicted oil production in the United States -- at that time the most productive region

Still happy I know how to grow food.

Now all I have to do is convince Tom to (a) kill and (b) dress our abundance of deer.

Hmmmmm . . . Venison . . .

Years ago, a roommate bagged a deer and took it down to the butcher's. (Around here, you just give the butcher half the game and he'll dress and prep the meat for free.) Later, Steve came home with an abundance of venison jerky and sausage.

I called my girlfriend at the time and said, "Steve brought home Bambi!"

She said, "Oh! I love that movie!"

That's when I knew she was probably too young for me.

Yeah, I'm about ready to go buy a gun and see if I inherited Dad's sharpshootery talent. (I have a 1942 penny he bull's-eyed way back when.)

Gotta find that local butcher around here. :> I could use a freezer full of ground venison for lean hamburger replacement (we don't eat beef, ground or otherwise, generally). WOULD MAKE GREAT KHEEMA.
