OK fella's here's a topic that I know something about and I believe it needs to be discussed :shrug:. I know I do too much of it and I think some do to little. When I joined this site it became abundantly clear quickly that Canadians were not the most favorite people in the world with some folk here. On the flip side I can say that Americans filled that part of the bill here :shrug:. Instead of anybody going ballistic about it though we all kept talking and I for one am very happy about that cause.
1.) I have learned things about people that I couldn't have any other way.
2.) I have made friends that I'm willing to share stuff with that I didn't think was possible.
3.) I can honestly say my learning on this piece of [you know] computer has been hastened.
4.) My recipe book has got fatter.
5.) My trapping skills have grown to levels I never expected.
Talking has many good points and the only bad one I can think of is "Dry Mouth". I apologize for what some of you take as a dumb question but when you don't live everywhere it's dang tough to know everything. It has boggled my mind when I think back to when I joined how things have changed for me. If someone had said I'd be going to Kentucky/Tennessee to hunt coyotes two years ago I'd have laughed until I :puke:'d. Now it's not only a possibility but a certainty.
Most if not all of us are unsure about somebody/something we don't know anything about but talking can bridge the gap very nicely. Not talking keeps us guessing and even worse assuming, and we all know where that leads :argh:. I can't wait to hear my first "Thundering Gobble" thanks to the talking I've listened to. The sharing of tales to me is the most unselfish act there is and it really [thing you do to make your bladder feel better] me off when someone is selfish[My daughter Amanda comes to mind here]. I don't want your inner most secrets but I sure want some some that have the statute of limitations has run out on.
Give me your thoughts on talking please lady's and gentlemen and thank you to the great people here who have talked already :bowingsmilie: :bowingsmilie: :bowingsmilie: :yoyo:
Barry-- My Dad started taking a week long fishing trip to Canada every year back in about 1968- 1970. He never came home with any negative words towards the Canadians he met. He always came home with a lot of fish & stories that he would tell our other Family members & Friends. I listened to a lot of them. His annual weekly pilgrimmiges have become more laborous to him since he's turned 80. It's just harder to set that long in a car anymore. This year was his 1st missed trip since he started going. I've been there on 6 or 8 of those trips & can Honestly say I have nothing bad to say about any of the people I've met up there. I've often wondered why folks here & there have the feelings towards each other that they do. It's not like we're taking each others jobs for less money like mexicans. I've always thought of Canadians & Americans as being on the same level socially. I've always thought we would have each others backs if needed. I've also always given people I've met the 1st time the benefit of the doubt. I let them ruin whatever Friendship that may have been.
For the last 15 years Mom & Dad always went to the same campground up there. And in doing so made a true Friendship with Nick & Kathi. So good in fact they've been down here for our Thanksgiving the last 8 years. I for one have nothing against Canadians. It will be my pleasure to meet you at the LBL this year Barry!! :yoyo:
BTW-- Any chance you could get that aeroplane to stop by & pick up Jimbo on your way thru?? :biggrin:
Talking or more correctly, typing on a keyboard, is what this or any forum on the internet is about. One can not see faces or expressions so smileys are used to convey emotions. Anything one reads could be true or not. After a period of time one learns to trust or not trust certain posters. Just like one does in person.
I think the big thing not to forget is that the WHOLE world can read what one posts. And everything is recorded, good or bad, and can be brought up at the most embarrassing of moments. :eyebrownod:

We are working on that and I think we could use some help :shrug:.
It seems that a lot of our perceptions of other people come from listening to others talk about them either in a negative or positive way. I wasn't trying to say that you guys all disliked Canadians but weren't sure about us ["L" I ain't]. My trip down to MT this summer had nothing but positive feelings towards the people I met[especially the guy in the suit who filled my van with gas cause I was being a bit confused by the damb pump].
When I tell people I'm going to the LBL I definitely get mixed responses. It goes from are you nuts, to that should be great as Kentucky is all blue grass and horse farms[what I thought too until I was informed that wasn't the case by a fellow from there on here].
I guess what I'm trying to say is I don't think there is a problem in the world that couldn't be fixed by talking. The problem lies in ego's or perception of wealth getting in the road. I mean I literally hated[that is a strong word] electronic[gotta hate having to type the whole dang word out now] callers but I can now tolerate them because of the feed back here.
One person talking negatively can do more harm than ten talking positively it seems to me. Case in point was the fellow from Colorado up in North Eastern Saskatchewan on our fishing trip two years ago. He sat at the camp fire the first night running down our country so bad that I couldn't keep quiet any longer. But once I challenged him on all his statements the rest of the fellows from down south did understand my points and the first guy left the fire alive thanks to them.
I totally understand what a certain amphibian has done for relations with our two country's in the predator hunting world. Trust me that [insert whatever bad terms you want here] doesn't represent me or 99.999999999% of anybody.
I'm coming to the LBL and it sure ain't to shoot a coyote[I got a notion I can do that here] but more to see stuff I ain't never seen[trees] and meet people I've learned to respect more than I do some of my neighbors.
I'm thinking if the fellows on this board were to run our country's that the border just might become a thing of memory's.
My thoughts on talking. :wo:
Well, HaMeR can do more of it than anyone I know. (Not that that is a bad thing)
CCP, doesn't say enough for my liking.
Jimbo talks when asked a question. No problem.
Me? Maybe I don't talk enough, because I love to listen, but I love a good conversation! :thumb2: That is until I lift my bangs & start rubbing my forehead back & forth trying to remove the sign that says "Interrupt Me!" :argh: That is one main reason I love the forums. I can complete what I want to say w/o being interrupted. :sneer:
Good post Barry! I have also enjoyed this site and all the good guys I have met here. I think the icing on the cake though, is going to the annual LBL gathering and meeting a lot of the guys face to face. It's nice to put faces with the names! I'm really looking froward to meeting you and all the guys at LBL this Feb!!
Jim

Jim
Me too. Remember I don't want my face on the internet and anyone that feels the need to face my wrath and has no regards for others wishs's will be persecuted to the full extent of my capabilities. :biggrin:
Barry....If I did not like ya......I would have never sent you a thing, bought or giving......And I probably woulda told ya ...right off
But you already know that... :wink:
I think if ya come to LBL you should do a few coyote stands with the fellows there so you can have a better understanding of what we go through in the challenge of killing an "Eastern coyote" It is truly different than what yall do there and I would imagine a great deal harder....But the only way to bridge that gap is to fully understand both sides.
I do not think it is a Canadian thing at all.....
As far as doing good for folks.....I cant top any of these folks......But most of what I do get to do....I keep that for the most part to myself....As I know you do too....
Just seeing the results is good enough for me.......and I know a some folks never see some of these things any of us do....sometimes that can shed a darker light to them as what we try and accomplish.....But if only once they would try it themselves they would forever think differently of those around them.
We dont always all agree on one thing....but if we did.....that would be boring.....We do all come together when help is needed or kids are involved and no one gripes at all......we just get er done and that is one of the greatest things EVER.
I have learned a lot here too.... And met some really great folks.....and disagreed with most of em at one time or another but that does not make any of my friends any less of a person or a friend......
Someone special to me once said...... Do Something Nice for someone....Without them knowing it and keep it to yourself...
Then watch it change them cause they wont be able to keep from returning the favor to all they meet trying to repay whoever it was that helped them once.
I have seen you and many others here do this many times and want to commend you all on an AWESOME way of thinking...... :yoyo: :yoyo:
Meeting you at LBL will be a treat......But to see you hunt with us would be an Honer and a high compliment.....
The LBL has plenty of fellowship.......but to walk with us in the woods would be to welcome you into our living rooms. :wink:
Barry, you should know and understand there will be many, many cameras at LBL. :biggrin: And not everyone can control which way they point. :nono:
Best I can do on the plane Barry is,, your airport to Jim's,, Jim's to a Tennessee or Kentucky airport & have one of those fellas pick you up. :biggrin: Or both of you fly down separate to the same airport. :biggrin:
Barry, I really enjoy your pictures and stories, especially the old school way you do things.
This thread weren't supposed to be about me :doh2:. HaMeR I'm driving so as to see as much country as I can :biggrin:. Semp you know what I mean :wink:. Al I'd come hunting with anybody but I'm more afraid my clubfoot ways would scare away some fella's coyote and then he'd need a new target :puke:. I don't own camo and don't see me buying any in the near future[or far future for that matter] and I just couldn't live with screwing up somebody's chance at a critter. Because of talking I'm more than aware how much different and I'm thinking harder it is for you fellas to hunt them than me. When I first joined though because I didn't know any different I figured everybody had the little rascals everywhere. I also thought a few other things were the same but have been proven wrong. I have no problem with being wrong but I do have a problem with continuing to be wrong when it's proven. :innocentwhistle:
:yoyo: And you're gonna see a bunch!! :yoyo:
There are good Canadians and there are not so good Canadians. There are good Americans and there are not so good Americans. I learned to stick with what I like and stay away from what I don't like. When it comes to Canada, I don't have much use for Quebec. When I was a kid we would fish in Ontario and it was great. Then I went to France, I mean Quebec. Many people made it a point to speak French and made it clear that I should be learn French. I was there to take my daughters to see Phantom of the Opera (it was in English) and when it was over I cancelled a second night in the French hotel and headed back to the states. A few years later that we went to see Phantom for a second time I got tickets for a late afternoon show so that I was not in a hotel and didn't need to eat anywhere while there. I look at it as lost economy for them. As for the rest of Canada I have been treated very well, except that one time when crossing the boarder and rather than just saying "No" when asked if there were any firearms I said, "No, I know you don't like them here." That got my van checked for about an hour and a half. Now I just say, "No" and get to drive on.
As for FnF there are people that like it here and some that have left. I don't care that they left and I am sure that they don't care that I have stayed. Like I said, I stick to what I like and stay away from what I don't like.
Jerry
P.S. I am glad you like it here. Eh. :wink:
If this is a plot insinuating that we should talk to Renaud and rethink our perceptions of him from listening to others talk about him in a negative way.....
:nono: It aint, I say it aint happening :nono:
He had his chance to make a first impression, I wasn't impressed. :roflmao:
Actually Barry you took a lot of the brunt of our grudges when you came aboard because Bopeye had this campaign going that he was gonna blow Canada up. In fact his hatred went on for so long, that we all pretty much just fell into it. Him posting about his hatred for the north of the northern border brethren was like a daily thing, images, signature lines, phrases, jokes, posts on other boards, etc, etc. :laf:
You done good sir. Dealt with it, showed us otherwise, and I for one am glad ya stuck around. :congrats:

I thought Bop was talking about the North - the Northern Aggressor from the Civil War. :huh:
Jerry
Not sure what you're lookin' for Barry. In person, sometimes I can't shut up. Behind the key board, I don't say a whole lot.
As far as I'm concerned, people are people. I like people not matter where or what color they are (however, I do like red heads :eyebrow:), but if you're an ass, well it don't matter where you're from now does it, 'cause you're still an ass? As it stands, I really like everybody here and look forward to the LBL. As you said, you learn a lot from folks from other places. I really appreciate all of the stories and pictures of each others lives that are posted here. It gives me a chance to experience a whole host of places and cultures that I most likely will never be able to go to. I have also learned that even though things may be VERY different, people and things are mostly the same deep down.
Well said Mike, I feel about the same except... I have a soft spot for blonde's. :eyebrow:
Barry,
A long time ago I learned to evaluate a person by their actions alone not from where they come from, their race, sex, or outer shell. I know we humans sometimes tend to judge all because of the actions of a few, I suppose that’s just our nature. I've been fortunate to have traveled across the U.S. and to several countries outside my homeland. In most cases I’ve found that if I treat people like I would like to be treated they will return the same. A handshake and friendly smile goes a long ways.
I don’t respond to a lot of the topics here on FnF because either I don’t have much of anything worth adding or else my thoughts have already been mirrored several times already. When I do post, I say what’s on my mind, be it good or otherwise. I know you said you did not intend for this topic to become personal so I won’t go make it so. I just want to add one thing: going back to the first line in my ramblings, to me you have shown yourself by your actions. Barry, you have shaken our hand and shown us your friendly smile, I respect that. You’re welcome at my campfire anytime. :biggrin:
Chet
edit: for spelling
I tend to get along with country folks no matter were there from and no matter the race. I think it is because most guy's raised on the farm (so to speak) see things in black an white.
My only problem with Canada when I was up there was I got some bacon at a restaurant and it didn't have salt on it and they didn't have any grits. :puke:
One more thing the ketchup at the wendy's had sugar in it. :shrug:

I agree on country folk :biggrin:
I thought grit's were the piece's you got on your steak after it hit the ground until I got informed different by one of you fella's.
I like salt in my bacon :shrug:
Our ketchup is a mite different in many fast food places I'll admit.
The service industry up here could learn many things from what I've seen down in the States. Only part of your service that sucked was at the service stations where there wasn't any :confused:.
I got no problem at all with Canada. I have several friends that are up there in all that tundra. Just kidding about the tundra it is actually quit a biodiverse country. I have met people from all over the world with some of the events I have been to. And I can tell you I have met some bad and I have met some good and i find for the most part the good out weighs the bad.
I am like my grandpa and Uncles. Never met anyone I couldnt talk to and make friends with. Once made a friend with a fence post. Talked to him for better than two days. Then it stopped raining and the sun came out and I got hot so I went inside.
Oh and for me it dont matter, blond, brunett, Redhead. I just want them breathing. Then again, bald :eyebrow: aint bad. You know what a blond is dont ya...................................Thats a Redhead that got the fire Fcuked out of her!
BUT Buckeyes!! I dont trust no Buckeye!!! :noway:
Just kidding about that. Ohio is cool, cept for them trafic laws.....
Where'd the term "buckeye" come from :shrug:. I've always kinda/sorta aimed between them.
A Buckeye is a nut that grows on a Buckeye tree and some call it a Worthless nut..... :laf: :laf:
The tree holds special meaning to folks in Ohio .......they even call their collage football team the Buckeyes
its the nick name of the state.
Ohio = Buckeye
Indiana = Hoosier
Missouri = Show me state
so on and so forth.
And your guess is as good as mine on the origins of the names.
In the states there is usually some good natured anomosicty between states. Indiana makes fun of Kentucky. Kentucky makes fun of there cousins, that kind of thing. Kind of like rival teams in school.
I now know the buckeye tree as I copy and pasted it in to the google thingy. That's a pretty tree and they should be proud of it. Hoosier sounds like the guy who put's hoses on something :confused:. Show me state, kinda sounds like 11 year olds playing spin the bottle :shrug:. Up here I call Saskatewanites Rat Landers so I guess it is much the same. Except for the frogs cause none of that is friendly in this country at all. :noway:
See were talking and learning about each other :biggrin: :yoyo:
thats called communication. My counslier said that was a good thing :huh:
No really, in all seriousness. I know what your talking about. When I am out on my bike people always look at me a little diffrent. I have heard more than one mother say "get away from those people they are dirty". Yeah I have come close to the point of coming unglued but what good would that do. They have no idea who I am. They have no idea that I am a father and care giver. Who are they to judge who I am and what I am all about just by the way I look or what I care to do in my free time to enjoy myself.
I have to admit I'm a bit jealous, you see more waterfowl in one picture than I see in 4 yrs and then some ROFLMAO !!!

edited: I love this board and the people on here I consider family.
Thoughts on talking. :wo: ;yes;
I think this is a great place, and obviously talking is a huge part of it. It's very cool how you can come here meet people from all over the place, hundreds if not thousands of miles apart, where we never would've had the opportunity to otherwise. We can come here and share great moments, accomplishments, good times, bad times, prayer requests, ideas, reviews, stories of all kinds. Show pictures of hunts, scenery, or family. There's people here that I feel closer to, and would share things with, then people that I see every day. "Talking " on the internet and these boards, can have its advantages and disadvantages. Typed conversations can be hard to decipher some times. It can be tough to read a persons emotions, good thing for the smileys, they help. On the advantage side, if you're face to face having a discussion and it gets somewhat heated, words can be blurted out, and once said can't be taken back. There have been several times on the net, can't really think of a time on here though off the top of my head, where a discussion got somewhat heated, I thought the other party or parties, were just plain being dumb, stirring crap, unreasonable, or whatever, where I typed a response that was just bringing me down to there level, and by the time I was done typing, had time to think about it before I hit "post", and either deleted it, or modified it. There's also some times that I can get pissed when I fully believe that some will say things to ya that they wouldn't otherwise be saying to you face to face. :nono: After a time I think you can get a pretty good idea of a persons character by how they convey themselves on these boards. With that said, I think you can only get to know a person so well by just conversations on the net. There are many of you that I would really like to spend some time with. Some I may never get that chance, but I hope and trust that some day I'll get that opportunity with many.
When you brought up the topic of Canadians and Americans, it's "funny" how that can work some times. I've been to Canada several times, if you go into a business of some sorts, or even walking down the street, or whatever, and deal with somebody that's a jerk, it can be easy for a person to say " fricken Canadians". Same as that Canadian business owner putting up with some tourist/vacationer that's being a jerk and saying "fricken Americans". Or you "hick"," redneck","yankee" or " insert whatever racial example here". It's not right but people can generalize or categorize when looking at someones actions. As far as Canada goes, like I said I've been there quit a few times and enjoy it very much. I do think it is unfortunate with the things a guy has to put up with at the border crossings. I'm sure both ways. Plus the fact that your country wants me to do a bunch of paper work and pay them another couple hundred bucks before they'll let me back in there. :pout: :noway: :eyebrownod:
Well enough (rambling) talking for now. :whew: Hope some of it made some sense. :biggrin:
I will say that I do more "talking" on this site than most. I like this site. get along with most everyone. And the ones I dont get along, with well we jsut dont "talk" anymore.
I personally don't talk much, but I hope you don't hold that against me Barry or any of the rest of you for that matter. :innocentwhistle:
I started coming to these boards to learn and the only way that can happen is through talking (typing). I've learned a lot in the last decade. Met several folks that I'm proud to call friends. I will consider it an honor to get to meet you Barry. I already feel like I know you, but being able to shake your hand, look you in the eye and have a few laughs together will be a treat.
I may bust a little on Canadians while your here, but I assure you I'll bust on the Yanks even more. :eyebrownod: However, if you'll take notice, I will bust on myself more than both of those groups put together. :biggrin:
I like laughter. I believe it helps open us up to our emotions and relieves stress. It is also very useful in breaking the ice with people you don't know. I very seldom pass someone, whether they be black, white, green, democrap, republican, short, tall, fat, thin, crippled, cross eyed or crazy, that I don't at least smile at them and most of the time will say hello. My wife hates going to stores with me, because if I see someone I know, even if it's just a little, I always at least take a minute or two and talk with them. Sometimes it can last 30 minutes or better. :shrug: :eyebrow:
I assure you that if I were to say something that hurt someone's feelings when I was just joking with them, that it would bother me.
A few years ago we had a fella come to the LBL that went by the username of Arse on here. I just knew he was my kind of fella to have a handle like that. I thought, "Now this guy is one crazy sumgun with a heck of a sense of humor". When he showed up, I let loose. I actually thought he was having a good time. Found out later that I had offended him.
I've never forgotten that lesson. It still bothers me to this day that I caused someone else to not enjoy themselves, because I had misjudged them. Now I'm a little more conservative about others at the LBL and spend most the time busting on myself. I wear ridiculous items or get ups. Tell totally embarrassing stories about myself that many others love to still bring up. I do antics that others take pictures of and think they really got something on me. That's the fun of it to me. If everyone leaves there laughing, whether it be with me or at me makes no difference, it is all good. :highclap:
You just get on down here and relax. It will be a good time and we will walk away from the experience, hopefully with a deeper appreciation of our event and the time we all get to spend together. It makes this board more like home and in some small way makes us all more comfortable with one another. That leads to us being able to express ourselves more freely with each other here.......in most cases. ;yes;
after editing my post I shoulda left it alone but I made it personal per say about my upbringing. My upbringing is why I'm here and consider this board family oriented, thats basically it, I was raised just like yall by my grandparents who are my hero's.
Bopeye, laughter does bring good to this world, many times I've been down and read a post here that lifted me up, although I may not replied, it still does help :yoyo:

So you can print it off and put it on your bedstand. :eyebrow:

Up brining? My upbringing aint got a thing to do with why I am here. :eyebrow: If the people that helped raise me would find me sitting here typing on this devils box I would get a swift trip to the wood shed for wasting my time on that dammnible thing and not doing my chorse :pout:. I get on here to find out the whos, whats and wherefors from other people that have learned the hard way. I get on here to have discussions with other people that share simmilar intrests. Two people dont have to be of exectally the same mind set to share similiar intrests. HERE I am jsut trying to get in touch with my inner coyote. I have found several hunting/predator/varmint sites and they all have something to offer. Some have more to offer than others. This is my home page cause I like the openess of the site. That and I find lessed bias discussions. No one is trying to cram it down my gullet that I should be using this call or this brand or I have to spend so much money before I am admited to the back room and learn the new secret hand shake. MOST people say whats on there mind. They dont do it simply to offend someone. In fact most try not to offend with there postings and such but they understand that it is going to happen. When more than one person gets together there is the possibility for someone to get offened or hurt or what ever other type of adjective you want to put there. If someone does offend someone an appoligy is usually issued, either in open forum or in a IM. Then it is dropped and everything moves on. Some sites keep the hurt feeling fresh so that they have soemthing to talk/flame about.
I would dearly love to go to the LBL. Can I? Most lilley not. No income means very little travel and if I were gona go there I want to HUNT while I am there. No income means no out of state licensing. I like to go to new places and see and do new things. Hunting at the LBL would be a new experience for me. I have been there in the past but never hunting, always fishing or camping. Just going to sit around a fire sharing yarns would be a great time but I feel the need for recoil and muzzle blasts. The gum flapping and good whisky comes at the end of the hunt. Not in place of the hunt. This is only my opinion and I hope I havnt offended anyone by it. Sitting around for a BS session is fun and great memeories can come from it. Sharing memeories to help make new ones kind of thing.
In closing: I like this site. Been here sense the begining or there abouts. Got people on here that I feel close to. got people on here that I would like to give a bloody nose to and some of those people are the ones I feel close to. I have been a member of several diffrent orginizations and I can tell you this. they all have there clicks and in each case one click dosnt like the other click and so on and so forth. It is usually one person in each click that is actually the one that starts the anamosity cause he dont like someone in the other click. So you have a group of people not liking another group of people and no one knows why. This site seems to have gotten past that. .
Enough of my rambling. Time to go do some chores..
I guess what I meant is I feel comfortable around yall, thinking it was the way I was raised.
Same here, I'd love to go to the LBL, but there's times esp. winter where I'm living paycheck to paycheck. I dont think I'll ever make it, heck, Steve has invited me to duck hunt the big Lake with him but I just cant find the time or $$$ and that's in our own state. Right now we're back to one vehicle for the 2 of us, I'm hitching rides to work etc etc etc but I still have a roof over my head with a job, heat, food, and momma and kids are happy. I'm thankful for that.
Having food, shelter and a family is as good as it gets in my eyes. I have more than I need and I don't want anything materialistic so that helps. Hunting coyotes would be fun and is important like slag says. For me the LBL is a chance to see an area I have read about and seen pictures of. It is the opportunity to see what you guys talk about and to actually get to touch a tree that I've never had a chance to touch. That and I really want to say Hi, eye to eye with everyone that's there who have touched my life in whatever way it was stroked. This talking thing is as important to me now as booze was 25 years ago and I'm here to tell you a lot more productive and a dang sight less damaging. :yoyo:
