Here's my favorite comment from the article: "The military is reluctant to talk about the use of Silly String, saying that discussing specific tactics will tip off insurgents." It works, siobhan. Here’s my favorite comment from the article:

Murray, I hope the shafting of the Wolverines in favor of a bunch of left over dinosaurs who eat their young doesn't engender too much hatred of the Orange and Blue by the Maize and Blue. I also hope you guys win your game, too. Wolverines should be able to tear Trojans a new anal orifice. I'm not sure what Gators are supposed to do with Buckeyes, besides plant them. cooper,

Murray,

I hope the shafting of the Wolverines in favor of a bunch of left over dinosaurs who eat their young doesn’t engender too much hatred of the Orange and Blue by the Maize and Blue.

Mourning Doves have a special place with naturalists, we either call them Sharp Tailed Hawks if we see their silhouettes, or Day Owls if you only hear the call, when we are around non birders. BTW the annual "Murray's Brag and Gag Rag" is about to be sent and any one who would like to be filled in on the happenings of the past year as portrayed in a satirical "Christmas Letter" need only send their address to me at murray@grouseland.com Yes, we Wolverines are none to happy that we haven’t been given our rightful chance to bring it back to the Buckeyes and show them just who is #1.

That woman was a trip alright. "It's (the panther's) got no place being here. (Actually, the panthers were in Florida long before humans were.) It's a dangerous animal. (I'm sure the panther is thinking the same thing about humans, and quite justifiably.)" Yeah, David. That woman was a trip alright. “It’s (the panther’s) got no place being here.

But we're not just closing in on the bottom, we're actually racing to it full speed at this point: "We've hit the slippery slope and we're closing in on the bottom," Land said. "We're all getting frustrated with congestion and high cost of housing, but we've got to achieve a balance. We simply cannot afford to take over every square foot of Florida and put a house on it." And I loved the comment offered by the woman with the sports association. Even as I disagree with the NRA on various political issues, this is the first time I've ever seen a comment this stupid regarding wildlife from a sportsperson. Like water mocassins aren't "dangerous animals," or that children shouldn't play unaware where water mocassins are likely to be hanging out looking for dinner. Does this woman have a clue what life in rural Florida should be expected to encompass? This says it all.
