Well in the case of some calamity (earthquake or tornado perhaps) they could come and put you out of your misery.

We're grateful for those who have to down escaped zoo animals, though they don't usually use bullets unless tranquilising darts weren't effective.

Here's an ironic news story on a tornado.

They came from Oklahoma, home of some of the deadliest tornadoes in the U.S., for a bit of fishing and relaxation in northwestern Ontario.

But two American men were killed and a third is believed dead after a tornado hit their camping resort near Ear Falls, about 200 kilometres northeast of Kenora.

Talk about a busman's holiday!

I could do that. I have weapons and coordination.

Well there ya go two thirds red neck already.

Can't be bothered reading some of the replys, but mandy i am so with you on this one, you have done so well for yourself and i hope that you are really proud of yourself and i mean that from the bottom of my heart my dear....
If i had a choice to keep with some of the expats that i met when we first met or have the redneck friends i have now............erm no choice as my redneck friends would win hands down..............

Leave the negative do good image back in the uk where it belongs, people have different lives, respect it, dont change them

Physically 100% redneck today, I've been bush hogging (that is dragging a cutting device behind a tractor) all afternoon. Still not properly redneck though, I didn't hook up a homosexual or a person of colour when I disconnected the cutter.

What's this tractor b*sh*t?

Caterpillar D9 if you're going to be clearing bush, and it's called cat skinning out here. My late uncle was a cat skinner for many years clearing siesmic lines for oil companies.

It's only the paddock, 3' weeds, not 30' trees.

Your excused then.

That's it dbd... either to put me out of my misery or to hunt game that I will willingly cook and eat but am too squeamish to kill. The hunters could also tranq me... I could do with induced serenity.

It's not all one-sided.

Great clip

Our neighbour gave us Bambi burgers ... then another neighbour offered us baby bear steak - had to politely decline. Don't agree with rabbit snaring either ...


no no not for me thank you

If we all liked the same things, life would be pretty boring, wouldn't it.

From the facebook page of one of our neighbours:

" had a great hunt today! 1 less coyote"

That's really the pursuit of the uneatable.
