    I remember when the DNR fought fires

    Great summer employment

    Bend is making logging great again. Trucks full of pine coming down the road past Yella's house every day.

    The forests look great after being thinned out a bit and a bit of vegetation grows back in.

    We should be employing millions of young men to thin the forests of the Western US and punch you in the face after drinking a six pack of Buckhorn lager.
    Buckhorn! Holy Fuck!

    Just teleported to 1975.
    According to my friend who transplanted here from Kentucky in the early 90s, it's spelled Buckhorn but pronounced Buckern.
    Great Label. Shitty Beer. Like most Animal beers.

    While I'm physically much younger than you Boomers (or young Gen X'ers) mentally I'm much older.

    When I was a kid my Dad was a devoted Schmidt drinker, but swore to only buy the cans with ducks on them rather than fish. Better "taste" according to him. He wasn't kidding either.

    Extreme heat with high dew points and humidity. Steam room style.
    Mosquitoes, deer flies, horse flies, chiggers…fk, bugs in general.
    Snakes
    Severe weather:Thunderstorms/tornadoes
    Ohh, and Hurricanes. They pretty much suck…and blow.

    The beer, boating, rivers, creeks, beach, gulf, islands and bikinis aren’t bad tho.

    Mosquitoes 100%

    The Throbber likes swimming in waters that don't hold creatures that can kill him.

    Agree. Yella doesn't swim in any body of water where the visibility isn't, at least, 30 feet.

    This basically rules out the South for me.

    We used to beer-bong Schmidt using a transmission fluid funnel from the auto parts store.

    Learned that trick from some dormies at EWU. Shit worked.

    Getting drunk on shitty beer was quite a thing in HS.

    We used to cut whatever animal was in season off the 12 pack and pin them on our tee shirts before going to a party.

    Great ice breaker / conversation starter.

    Because so many folks compared to the sheer volume of folks have died from something lurking in waters they can’t see below a foot in the dark, murky waters in the south waters…fucking pussies. Heh
