Blog Mirror: Hunter Angler Gardner Cook; CHRONIC WASTING DISEASE AND YOU

An interesting article on Hank Snow's wild food blog; Hunter Angler Gardner Cook.

CHRONIC WASTING DISEASE AND YOU

As Wyomingites sadly know, Chronic Wasting Disease is spreading in Wyoming's deer herd.

What they are less likely to know is that the disease entered the state, at least according to a Game & Fish biologist I spoke to, through captive, i.e., farmed, deer that entered the state from Colorado. Something that shouldn't have been allowed south of our border in the first place, but which was.

Sheryl said...: I enjoyed the movie advertisements. It fun to see what the topics were a hundred years ago. Old silent films had so much melodrama.; Saturday, March 9, 2019 at 5:25:00 PM MST
Pat, Marcus & Alexis said...: I like the movie posters as well, I have to admit. It's a shame that so many of those old movies are "lost".; Sunday, March 10, 2019 at 6:15:00 AM MDT

Lex Anteinternet?

This blog has been around since 2009. In the very first post, we asked the question: "What the heck is this blog about?"

Our answer to the question was: "The intent of this blog is to try to explore and learn a few things about the practice of law prior to the current era. That is, prior to the internet, prior to easy roads, and the like. How did it work, how regional was it, how did lawyers perceive their roles, and how were they perceived?"

We also noted: "Part of the reason for this, quite frankly, has something to do with minor research for a very slow moving book."

All of this is still true, but the focus of the blog has changed somewhat. It now focuses on the era from 1890 to 1920 in general, rather than on the law and lawyers specifically, although that may be far from obvious. It's also become the location where we comment on anything we feel moved to comment on.

We hope you'll feel moved to comment as well. While we moderate every comment, so as to weed out Spam, we greatly appreciate the comments where they are offered, and hope to see more.

Thank you for stopping in!
