How many people know that Beeman was a marine biologist?

Tis true. A full fledged professor at SFSU before he chucked it all and pursued his life-long hobby. An expert in nudibranchs he actually befriended Japan's emperor (who was also a marine biologist) and later married his Japanese interpreter. He was my major advisor in the early 70's.

Just the thing to take to Mexico to give the Chota another excuse for rousting you and holding you up for hours or days. Don't do it is my recommendation. And yes you might shoot your eye out too.

I got one, watch out if you shoot a raton it may just go through your wall. One powerfull rifle, I went out of town for my annervisery, and was going to leave it with my son (17), while I was gone. He's had an air rifle since he was 12. One shot by me and, it went into my gun safe while I was gone. I just wonder how these cowards would respond if you shot back with legal and lethal force. Fight back.

Cabelas sells one that claims 1600 fps. Kinda pricey, around $500 but, it will put a major hurt on whoever/whatever stands in front of it.

Breathe in, Breathe out, stop, aim, relax and squeeze the trigger with the middle of the first joint of your trigger finger. Don't jerk the trigger. Squeeeeeeeze it. :lol: Yummy, Pelican stew. The taste is somewhat gamey though. :lol: Just cook it over the coals of your fire.

Hey guys...just had a thought. I keep a canister of bear spray in our motor home. We live in BC Canada and walk the dog alot in the bush when out camping. I am wondering if I should keep it or remove it before heading across the two borders.

Part of me wants to ditch it, I had a bad experience with it once. We had just set up camp and I was dinging out the camper. I have a string around this canister (to strap around my shoulder) and when I grabbed it the thing went off like a garden hose. Let me tell ya, that stuff works.
