    Her name? Is she one of those women which whom will give me an annoying itch if I don't wear proper protection? :)

    Best let sleeping dogs lie. She is that whom shall not be named.

    And, yeah...she'll itch.

        Thanks, if you are in Canada and in the US where they have bears; you must have bear proof garbage containers. If you don't, you will find the garbage spread all over the yard.

          haha, where i am its the stray dogs that do that.

          I heard they have this rule in Alaska, you cannot trap a bear but you can shoot it.

          is it the same in Canada ?

            I'm not a hunter, they have a bear hunt, but I think they can kill it if the bear is threaten you in any way. We have only black bears here and if they are approaching we try to scare them off. How they are dealing with Grizzles and the Polar bears where they have them, I don't know, but I will ask

              That brings back an old memory: my friend and I had snuck out late at night, we must have been around 14 or 15, and we cut across a undeveloped tract of land to get downtown (we used to get served at a dark and smokey local bar when it was late, even though we were pretty young - both of us were tall, and my friend already shaved). In the middle of a vacant field, I almost stepped on one of thos hairy black and white bags. He squirted his "fragrence" but somehow it missed both of us. We were very lucky kids, I can't imagine explaining to parents how one could "go to bed" and wake up having been skunked...

                Most black bears are the size of big dogs and they rather run away than to work at eating and if they do decide to stay, they're too damned lazy to chase you down.

                The 5.56 that we were issued with would just pissed them off. We surround ourselves with dogs. That way, while they're eating the dogs, we run away.

                  Two categories. Those who work/worked in the defence industries and those who wore the uniform.

                      Ohh yes, the 5.56. I was in the Swedish army, the infantry. I was drafted as all males in Sweden during the Cold War. When I was there the Swedish army was issued the Swedish version of the German G3, with the 7.62x51, a few years later it was replaced by the Swedish version of the FNC. I was after my service volunteering in what can be the National Guard and during that time, I test fired the FNC, I was not impressed. I'm curious about the 6.8 and the 6.5 Grendel.

                        The 7.62NATO is what I consider the minimum needed to take on a brown or a polar. There is no replacement for powder no matter what the terminal ballistics say about the 6.8 and 6.5Grendel. You're perfectly welcome to try ... I will just run away while the bear is busy munching on you.

                          Poor dogs. Sir, you should have allowed them to hear those CDs of the "woman who sings in Vages". It would have made them fierce.

                          Cheers!...on the rocks!!

                            They're more likely to jump into the bear's mouth to stop the suffering.
