Computer Woes Continued

I got the new hard drive. I put it in. It works perfectly, but...I still have the original problem. It turns out the crashed hard drive was an additional problem the computer had. Now they think my video card, or display has gone bad. They are sending me a shipping box to return the computer for repair. Should be good as new (minus all my saved memory, pictures etc.) in about two weeks. This too shall pass.

On a better note, we are really feeling blessed right now. A friend, who is an avid hunter, gifted us with about a hundred pounds of meat. Don't feel too bad for him to give this up. He has gotten three elk, a moose, and two bears already this year. He had buffalo, deer, elk, and moose all from previous years hunting already in his freezer. He needed to make room for this seasons take. We are still grateful, and really feel blessed.

Take care. Good Hunting. Stick.

what does bear taste like, I'm curious

I'm not sure I've even known anyone who ate bear. Maybe the Clampetts. :0)

Bear has a very strong, gamey taste, and is VERY greasy. Most People don't like it. I think either Elk or Moose is the best. The old mountain men said that Panther was their favorite, even over the Buffalo hump, or tongue.
