seventeen pillows? wtf do you need a bed for if you got that many pillows? This is what I'm saying. She's nuts. Same ritual every night. Take the damn pillows off so I can go to sleep. Trip over pillows in the dark to go to the bathroom. She makes the bed, no way I'd do it. Next day: rinse, repeat. When she's gone, I like to pick a different one each time and have a nice drool nap.

An ounce of Remington Slugger would sure make a mess out of that styrofoam azz, wouldn't it? Anyone got a good recipe for robo-deer?

Take the damn pillows off so I can go to sleep. Trip over pillows in the dark to go to the bathroom. I aint got it so bad then. I confess I toss one pillow on the floor every night. See, my main pillow is this jell thing that weighs 137 lbs and has an impressive resistance to the crushing weight of my ogre skull. I prefer a bag of sand but Pam wont have it because there are no actual pillows filled with sand and it needs to technically be a "real pillow" to be allowed on the bed. So, the jell thing works. The one I toss on the floor is a weightless sack of fluff. Completely worthless. If your pillow can't deliver blunt force trauma, it's not the pillow for me. I could seriously defend my home armed only with my pillow. LOL!

I like my 137 pound pillow. It's a tempur pedic type material. It probably does weigh 10 pounds.

Mine isn't holding up.
I twist and fold and bunch a pillow throughout the night. I'm a pillow mangler.
Super pillow is already going downhill, not long for this world.
I'll have to switch to a burlap sack full of old blue jeans once this thing is ruined.

I got mine for Christmas a few years ago from my ex-wife. It's seriously one of the best presents if ever recieved. One of most useful anyway.

I have a pillow I bought from the chiropractor's office. It's got a water bladder in it. Need it more firm, add water. Want it softer, drain some water. That sucker is not blowing away anytime soon! Good Luck to the WI and MI hunters on your upcoming openers!

Camp Isabella update..
8 pointer bit the dust at 0835 this morning. I was sitting on the stand we call the new cut watching all the little critters when I decided I needed to stand up. I turned and looked in the far back corner of the cut and saw this deer walking down the edge. Saw a rack and threw the rifle up just as he turned to go into the thick stuff. The cross hairs found found his front shoulder and the 257 Weatherby roared. Mr. deer fell on his nose and slid about 5 yards down the hill. The shot was about 125 yards.
This is the first blood for the 257. It is a Weatherby Vanguard in a hi tech stock with a Burris 4.5x14 c-4. Load used was Weatherby brass, Fed 215M primer, R-22 71 gr. and 100 gr. Barnes TTSX at 3500 fps.
Wife had a doe and fawn walking around her this morning but no shots were taken, too much brush.

Everybody around me is getting bucks and seeing does...all I am seeing is tracks.
About ready to start setting claymores and tripwires at this rate.
Need the lake to freeze so I can get back to the cattails and do some sneak and peak or bumps to get them out of there.
Frustrating as hell when deer come out just after shooting and go back in half hour before legal shooting. Grrrrr.....
