I do. All the time.

What TF said- they can use whichever tag on a deer of either sex. But, they can't get additional tags for later in the season.

He can use a DMP, DMAP, or regular season tag during the youth hunt. There are also blaze orange requirements.

First Light, you live on Long Island, right? Go to the beach- salt water is great for poison ivy. Or, find a swimming pool- chlorinated water is great also. Gonna be brutally hot this weekend- good weekend for swimming anyway.

I've had many different brands and have never found any to last very long or work very reliably. I've resigned myself to not spending more that $80 for a camera, buying them only when they're on sale, and not expecting more than a year or so of frustrating performance.

I didn’t find a deal exactly. But I had $10 credit on Prime from Whole Foods and I burned it on a waterproof backpack for duck hunting.

....until they finally get banned. Like Papist.

I entered for the first time this year. Wish I had started 20 years ago.

is the camera noisy when taking pictures? maybe they're reacting to the sound more than the scent. the camera is plastic- I can't imagine that your scent stays with it for too long when out it the elements.

I fished the bay around the captree bridge on Saturday. We caught a few cocktail blues and some very short fluke. There were party boats out of Captree all around us. They didn't seem to be doing too great. I don't think there are a lot of keepers being caught in the bay at the moment.

That's really cool. Congratulations. I put in for a tag for the first time. Didn't get one. How long have you been entering the lottery?

This sounds so cool. Looking forward to hearing how it works for you in the fall.

I didn't mean to imply that most heroin users started with a legitimate prescription- although a great many do. There are many, many others who start out using other illegal drugs and wind up turning to heroin for the powerful high, low cost, and availability.

Heroin is not necessarily the 'harder stuff'. it's just cheaper and more available than prescription opioids. Much of the opioid crisis is due to Joint Commission mandates over the past decade or so that required hospitals to 'control post-operative pain' before discharging a patient. This meant that patients should expect to have no pain before leaving the hospital, which led to the need for stronger drugs than were used in the past. Those drugs are much more powerful and much more addictive than pain meds that were prescribed before. Patients can get addicted without necessarily 'abusing' their prescribed meds. Once the prescription runs out, the new addict turns to street drugs. Those Joint Commission mandates are changing. As a result, doctors are much more vigilant with what they prescribe. It was never realistic that a patient having a major surgery, total knee replacement for example, should expect to be pain free three days post-op. The new mandates are about managing patients' expectations of post-op pain.

Do you feel the same about smokers?

Oh that’s not too bad. Thanks very much for the info.

Any idea what the fees usually are?

I saw a Spypoint cell cam on sale today and was considering buying one. I have decent reception at my place. So, I thought it could be an option. But, I know nothing about cellular cams. Is there a fee involved? Are they reliable?

That's awesome- have fun. But, don't be surprised if you're miserable. I play a few times a year also and am not a great golfer. That course is for serious players- and the sign at the first tee tells you so. I wanted to play the course once before the US Open was there years ago- just so I could be familiar with it while watching on TV. I had no business being out on that course.

Do you hunt ducks while sitting in the boat? Or do you use it just to get to your spot? Looks great.

The system sucks. No argument there.

Steve, you are wrong. And there have been many threads on this site complaining about the FACT that anyone, regardless of legal status, can be brought to any ER in the country and be treated for any acute illness, regardless of their ability to pay. That being said, of course the first question asked is about insurance. That doesn't mean your friend would have been turned away if he/she didn't have coverage. You keep referring to 'they'- I have 20+ years experience in health care, working for a 'they' and speak from professional experience on this. You are misinformed and can easily confirm what I'm saying by doing the least bit of research.

Which are the animals in Central Park that 'let people get very close' because they associate people with food? I haven't been to Central Park in a while. Maybe it's changed since my last time.

That's not true and you know it.

Agree. If you have to buy jarred sauce, nothing comes close to Rao’s.
