For Murph re: Bear Interactions

[MurphOnMillerAve]

Yeahbut, somebody has to show-up and there's no way da Homies and da Hoodies are leavin' da 'hood for a more rural, natural setting, so that leaves it up to the bruins , not the brutes.

We have bears come right into Bethesda inside the the DC Beltway. They'll go where they can get a meal.

Less than I thought.....must be they do not like the NJ TP.

Really? I was hoping, and had been self-deluding, that there were maybe eleven, or at most, fifty. But thousands?! Makes total sense, unlike my musings, for years.

Well, they are scattered across the state and there is a lot of woodland in NJ still that few think about................except for the ones watching you and your house waiting for that moment when you are off guard to pounce, abduct, and carry you off in the back of a Buick never to be seen again.

Well, if Murph has the keys on him, sure they will take that, too. But you are also correct - not a Buick - a bear's proper habitat is a Studebaker.

Studebaker,,, nope to small. For a bear that would be like trying to climb into a 30 gallon trash container.

What I cannot understand is why, since bears are noways endangered, we just don't put a bounty on them and clear them out like we did the griz and the wolf in the lower 48? Being et by a b'ar sure interrupts worship of Gaia.
Ah..I forgot..Smoky the bear. Lovable.

Rufus. Where did you come up with your latest tagline....I really like it........I think at times we all qualify.

An anal retentive person is a person who pays such attention to detail that it becomes an obsession and may be an annoyance to others. The term derives from Freudian psychoanalysis.

By that definition, it seems some of the greatest discoveries in history came from people who were obsessed in their pursuit. I wonder if you can be the best at anything without being this way in some fashion. And according to Freud it all goes back to potty training...................

a·nal-re·ten·tive
PSYCHOANALYSIS

adjective
(of a person) excessively orderly and fussy (supposedly owing to conflict over toilet-training in infancy).

noun
a person who is excessively orderly and fussy.

[rogruth]

Could also mean a person that is full of certain bodily wastes.

True,,, but taking a dump won't always fix the problem.
