Tell me if any of you have ever heard of this, or seen such a situation.  When I was a 12-13 yr old we hunted on the Dinn Ranch just South of Freer for several years.  On two occasions, I saw the following:  We were driving to town after the evening hunt.  I always asked Dad to drive to the gate and he would let me.  Driving down the road to the gate, I saw about 8-9 quail standing in the road in a straight line, they were perfectly upright and still.  Beside them was a 5-6 foot rattlesnake.  The rattlesnake was stretched out straight and the quail were standing right beside the snake just standing there.  The quail were only 4-5 inches from the snake.  I witnessed this twice.  I do not know what the quail were doing but know for sure that I saw this.  Anybody got any info.

      I don't believe in changing the definition of a word because a group does not like it. That makes me laugh honestly.....especially the "code word" comments.....because I'm white as they come (although I have A LOT of cajun blood)....and no one, not one person has gave me the "code word" handbook of racist phrases and words. I had no idea that when a person uses the OK hand gesture (and I grew up on the little rascals) it was racist until a black person posted about it.......common sense would be that white people signally to other white people would both know what the gesture means, not the people excluded.....

      Where did I say semi-white? I said not white as rice, meaning I have a more Mediterranean skin tone as my paternal Grandfather was an immigrant. Greek. Supposedly a little Cherokee in there too. What you want to call me now?

      Let’s see….that sounds like a euphemism for N-Lover. I’ve been called that too. You ARE a racist!

      Charlie Kirk? You gotta be kidding. So, FOX is real news until it isn’t? Check out 538’s aggregate polling. Last I checked, it was 40.8 Trump, 40.3 Biden, with the gap closing. The felon is falling.
