Kyle,

Do you remember the movie "Bless the Beasts and the Children?"  Came out in
the early 70's I think.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0068286/

My cousin did a bison "hunt" a couple years ago *And Had The Head
Mounted!!  * and hung it in our family cabin!!  Needless to say, my cousin
and I don't get along. I understand the economics of it, but wish there were
a way to honestly hunt bison.  Although it's always been a lot like hunting
cattle.  If you come out before Thanksgiving, ski season won't be in gear
yet, although there was snow last night in the mountains 30 miles west of
Laramie at the cabin.  Another cousin was there for Labor Day weekend.

An unreasonable man (but my wife says that's redundant!)

The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one
persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore, all progress
depends on the unreasonable man.

-George Bernard Shaw 1856-1950
