I\’ve sure gotten old!  
I\’ve had two bypass surgeries, a hip replacement,
new knees, fought prostate cancer and diabetes
I\’m half blind,
can\’t hear anything quieter than a jet engine,
take 40 different medications that
make me dizzy, winded, and subject to blackouts.
Have bouts with dementia.
Have poor circulation;
hardly feel my hands and feet anymore.
Can\’t remember if I\’m 85 or 92.
Have lost all my friends. But, thank God,
I still have my driver\’s license.

Pat Durkin column: Bowhunting legend lives on through award

http://www.greenbaypressgazette.com

 

 

Some of us are old enough to remember when deer were few, bows and arrows were novelties and bow-killed deer were considered feats of luck or incredible skill.

Many folks forget that, until 30 years ago, cars and trucks killed more deer by accident than bowhunters did on purpose. As a result, archers forever were trying to earn respect for their equipment and their craft.

The man most recognized for proving and publicizing the effectiveness of modern bows and arrows was Michigan\’s Fred Bear, who was not only a skilled archer, but also a masterful manufacturer and communicator. During the 1950s and 1960s, Bear hunted big game around the world with bows he designed for the Bear Archery Co., and then broadcast his feats on national TV and published them in books and magazines.

Bear didn\’t establish bowhunting\’s legitimacy alone, of course. In Wisconsin, Roy Case of Racine, Larry Whiffen of Milwaukee, Art Laha of Weyauwega and the fabled professor Aldo Leopold of Madison did their part. Nationally and internationally, men such as Howard Hill, Ben Pearson, Glenn St. Charles and Bill Wadsworth added to its credibility.

He had 17 points in the first half as TCNJ held a 37-35 lead at the break.

Bill,

Don\’t you find it ironic about the \”Steven (ph) ville\” UFO sightings right after you had the \”guts\” to print my experience with \”The Brooklawn UFO?\”

Probably the same family by the reports but almost comical that \”they\’ chose a town with my name in it. You will enjoy reading today\’s articles about it in the Ft. Worth Star Telegram.

On Saturday afternoon, about 50 people who saw impossibly bright lights in the skies about nearby Stephenville 12 days ago gathered in Dublin to talk about what they saw with interviewers from the Mutual UFO Network.

The witnesses were swept into whirlpools of media representatives carrying video cameras and at least one \”posse\” from a Dallas radio station, whose members were intent on blocking the front door of the meeting room to take pictures of themselves wearing aluminum-foil hats. And there were the circling curiosity seekers.

Whether you realize it or not your articles are so much more informative; there is some logic. Nobody ever tries to give an explanation as to how \’they\” fly or energy sources. One thing all sightings have in common is \”noiseless.\” And to all my critics there is an explanation or answer whatever it will be. Speaking of my critics and I am not trying to take myself too serious but you come from a single group – \”close minded opinionated people who probably never thought outside the box in your life!\” You think easy thoughts.

Recently I had a rather heated discussion with a former Delta pilot over my theories on the outer bands of a UFO rotating at supersonic speeds. Of course he said these theories defy all we know about flight. Here\’s a simple experiment you all can do to prove what I am saying is true. Go buy yourself a top with the string attachment. Spin it on a flat table and see it jump or rather attempt to take flight. Now picture the rotation at thousands a second and you tell me that\’s not the most \”logical\” explanation of \”how they fly!\” And it also explains why they move in such straight lines.

Of course I\’m still waiting for one of these UFO SOBS to land in my front yard and if this happens all of Gloucester and Brooklawn is invited to the party! We\’ll even have a kegger. So if they are indeed from another star and able to read your articles consider this a challenge and invitation to the party. I\’m waiting without fear.

Steven (ville) Flowers, formerly of Brooklawn
