I'm sure that Biden's just waiting for instructions from Peking and everything will be ok.

Yeah, Newsome is opening a shit storm in a can of worms with this 'reparations' foolishness.
Problem #1 is going to be to define 'black'. If someone is 50% black will they get 50% reparations ??
Problem #2 is going to be a massive influx of blacks looking for their share of the handout $$$. All fine upstanding citizens I'm sure.
Problem #3 is going to be when Newsome runs for President and the whole country wants their share of sugar.

In all candor, can this "Reparations" bullshit actually happen, even in Luny Tune, The People's Republik of Kalifornia?

Just like Biden bought votes with that 'student loan forgiveness' bullshit, Newsome wants to buy votes with 'reparations'.
Yeah, it could happen.

Here's a plan worth kicking around. You guys should praise me instead of making me feel like shit fo the crime of being the only sane man left in Kalifornia. So, all of you and your friends should move back to The People's Republik and we will vote out those cocksuckers!
Otherwise, it would cause bankruptcy to dig a trench and let the whole state slide out to sea. I know, I know; it sounds like a great idea! But, you couldn't get two citizens to vote for such a bold and sensible plan, so it would never happen.
Meanwhile, just you wait and see. The whole country will pay the Kalifornia reparations initiative and black people will love us for it. And it will be just the start. Arizona will call us PIKERS and up the anti to $10 million. Then Texas will again raise it to $19 million, and Minneesota, (where they hate odd numbers), they will vote to round it off to an even $6 million.
I know. I know. It can't be helped.
Good hunting. El Bee

Leonard, you should actually look at yourself the way a lot of us think of you.
As a prophet attempting to spread the good word and most likely to become a martyr and be revered by many as a noble and the only honest man left in California. Either way, win lose or draw, you are predestined to doom.
It somehow was written long ago on some scroll, yet to be found, in some old Indian cave somewhere in or near the Black Rock Desert.
Well....I think it sounds good anyways.

I'm trying to bring up a visual of a bearded El Bee wearing robes and sandals preaching the word to liberals.
It's just not happening, though.
Maybe after a couple more Fireball Martinis.

Yeah! And, did you say, "Hold my beer!"
The Black Rock Desert! Seven Troughs! It's kinda amazing the number of Bobcat I took out of that area, over the years. Best, or highest concentration of cats I ever ran across; and they are nice Lynx Cats! Seemed like every little hill had a cat in residence, at least one, because I once killed 3 on a stand, one night. They are so curious! And another surprising little nugget is you will stumble across a lion once in a while, even out on the flats.

Sitting here with a beer in my hand and reminiscing about the Black Rock and Smoke Creek deserts And went wow, your right I have seen over the years cats, dogs, antelope, deer and sheep out on the playa and of course coyotes but not a big cat. They mostly stayed up higher where the sheep liked to stay and the big ol bucks. Very fond memories,,thanks Leonard. I love that country up there.

Me too! From Rosebud Canyon up to Sawtooth and north to Denio, and do not forget Bishop Canyon! The locals have that access camouflaged, but stay with it! And Paradise, good hunting! I skinned a real nice cat right next to the blacktop one time and left a damned good knife just laying on the shoulder for somebody on foot. I love that part of the state, but that "Burning Man bullshit can't help anything. One night a saw a pickup totally creamed by a range cow close to Pyramid Lake. You would think he ran into a friggin' 18 wheeler!

Believe me when I tell you that most of the ranchers up there did not care for or like Burning Man.
That does happen rather close to Gerlach but the idiots go cruising about and do fuck things up.
I have a friend that USED to support that crap a long time ago and the Burning Man committee or whatever just tried to bilk him of a lot of money.
He finally said screw you and became an anti Burning Man person of means.
But that country up there has to be seen. No jets above, no other people for days and days at a time.
And it is a LONG ways between ranches where you can't get help if you break down.
The hot springs are absolutely wonderful and the late wife and I had the proverbial ALL over tan.
That country from Winnemucca, remember the hiway sign that said "English Spoken Here". That got tore down a long time ago. Had a good coyote hunting and shooting buddy from Paradise Valley and they had the 4R Ranch. On and on. Leonard , thank you for making me remember those days of yore. Nothing to go out and call a bunch of coyotes and be with the wife and Mother Earth as friends was priceless

Here's the unvarnished truth about northern Nevada. It pleases me that you can fire a shot and nobody hears it! That is solitude, Amigo! Crossing the Pony Express Trail is just another questionable dirt road. It's timeless when you can mark a turnoff with a muffler and tailpipe stuck in the ground taking you to Cow Creek. It seems like every road heading uphill dead ends at a mine of some sort. I never used to know what the hell those pads were for; until watching all those gold digging videos. I should have saved one or 2 of those Log Cabin tins shaped like a Log Cabin! Miners don't toss their trash too far down the gully. The land is barren to the untrained eye, but it's still part of the charm. Yes, an all over tan is certainly possible up at Kyle Hot Springs. The site has been vandalized over the years but those cabins used to be quite serviceable, it's a damned shame that people have no respect....must be those piss ant Californians?
And, some people nod their head when you talk about a Nevada Rifle. You do have to reach out there on occasion, kept dialed in for 4 hundred yards, I don't like to shoot anything further than that because spotting them in endless sagebrush flats can be difficult at night. And, all night gas is a valuable knowledge, you can drive a whole tank full in the dirt, and you had better have a plan B.
Good times, for sure!
Good hunting. El Bee
PS hey, anybody know that tree along the loneliest highway in America with 50 sets of tennis shoes hanging from the branches?

The "Shoe Tree" by Middlegate between Fallon and Austin was chopped down a few years before I moved to TN..It was in the newspapers and really pissed off a LOT of people.
People are so destructive, I and the wife used to go throughout the state to the many hot springs and they all seemed to always end up trashed by dumbshits. And the old lineshacks would get torn down or torched, much to the dismay of just a few ranchers. And this is progress???

That's very sad information, Walt! Who in the hell would bother to chop down that friggin' tree? And, WHY, for god sake? Again, must be some asshole from California.
How about this, Walt? Maybe you noticed that Victor, another honorable HM member moved to Florida. And, recently, he moved back to his roots, southern Arizona.
I have heard you say, well, not actually "heard" but you have written that you are quite happy in Tennessee. I'm sure you are but I detect a small bit of nostalgia for the wide open sagebrush and the mustangs of central and northern Nevada. Perhaps you will come back to Eastgate or Middlegate or even Fallon for a relaxing weekend....or two. Hard to get that country out of your system, ain't it?
Just a trip down memory lane!

Somewhere in Northern Nev. long long ago. Possibly out of Winnemucca near some railroad tracks;
Found a 'cabin'.
This thing was a bit odd. About three feet above ground level and about five feet below. Built with railroad ties. Had a kitchen and a couple of bunk rooms. Woodstove was gone, bedframes / springs still there but the mattresses long gone into rat nests.
Kind of a neat ground level view out where the window would be. Probably a bit more consistent winter / summer temps inside being mostly below ground.

NVWalt,
Are you down by the "Tail of the Dragon"? I love riding over there on our bikes, especially the Parkway. We usually stay at Pigeon Forge, or now Maggie Valley.

Yes, and I know exactly where that thing is! And, railroad ties happens to be a rather common construction material all over the place, up there. I've found at least a half a dozen just north of I-80 which follows RR tracks and I suppose some are like discarded, used and unserviceable so they are not necessarily stolen. But, you have to agree, they are damned near bomb proof.
You know, there is a lean to, horse corral and hot springs just south of the border in Denio. You had better not stick your hand in that nice clear water! It is scalding HOT. My buddy sort of absentmindedly reached to the bottom to get a slick coyote's skull and came back rather abruptly; without the skull! He scalded the hell out of his whole arm and hand. I mean, it was the dead of winter and cold as hell and that spring was bubbling and actually boiling bubbles coming up. Maybe somebody planned to come back for his skull but Richard decided to leave it alone after thinking about it. He should have thought about it before , but I bet he won't ever forget it.
