Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire The Ken Howell Hype

I don't have to know you, to be your friend.

I don't have to know you to care about you.

I may never meet you though we mean to and still consider you important in my life.

If we do meet I will consider it a pleasure no matter the circumstances.

If I can ease a load for you in this life I will.

A few hours and dollars aren't something I can't afford.

If you're an Azzhole, forget everything I said, doesn't apply to you.

They might not, I do for sure, your about as worry some as a pimple on my ass. Tell you what tough guy, why dont you come down to my gym and spar a few rounds with me, you know MMA style. The entire point is that no one and I mean no one is so class less as to go ahead and question a man when the chips are down as such as in this case, you [bleep] head are somewhere beneath santorum.

Another vote for Dr. Howell. He is a class act and stand up guy. He is a man. I just said a prayer for him and his family.

Because of my own serious health matters, I don't have a lot of extra moola laying around. But, everything that I have is paid for, so I am blessed. Just because of your less than human approach to this fine man's plight, I will be sure to kick in more than I can afford toward Ken's kitty. I suggest all here who can to do the same. I have discovered in this life, that what goes around, comes back around. You are in my prayers, Mr. Ken.

Jagoff. Your village beckons.

Put the knuclehead on ignore, adblock his avatar, it's like the OP doesn't exist. Technology is great.

Listen, mother plucker, if you don't want to help Ken that's your business. If you don't like Ken that's your plucking problem. You're a know nothing plucking idiot. Take your 166 posts and shove them up your sorry azz. Who the pluck are you?

A lot of people here have great respect for Ken, If you don't that's your right and problem. What you should do is NOT RESPOND TO THE POSTS, and mind your own worthless plucking business and keep your disrespectful garbage azz opinion to yourself.


Some people just need a good biotch slapping.

What an insult..........You need to find another group to harass, for your stay here is not welcome!


What possessed you to bash Ken?

Perhaps the whisky talking or the real you is just despicable! I guess it could be a combination of the two, yep that's more like it!!!

You have a man that is in bad shape and is laid up in the hospital, thanks to the kindess of his friends, he is able to get on this board and do a little reading, when his strength allows..

Someone that alot of folks on this board care for and respect is pretty much fighting for his life right now.

And you post this for him to see? Please spare us the "I was just asking a question", your intentions are obvious and your motives disgusting.

To post this for garbage for a man in his condition to read is just pure ass evil.

Somebody needs to take the trash out...

One look at his sig line should be enough.

I only know Ken from this forum, he always seemed a great guy. If all I can do is keep him in my prayers and send him my best wishes, he has that.

But, this crap that this fool who could not know anything about him says, well, makes me want to kick some teeth in. The older I get the more intolerant I become towards jerkoffs. Sorry if I offended anyone.

Whiskeyman....

WTF? I just caught this thread, and really dude, WTF?

Unbelievable....

Isnt there a "TTB" button anyplace? ( To the bottom...)

You know what, I've never met him or followed his writing either. That would be all the more reason to keep my nose out of it and not act like a jerk. A little decency and compassion will go a long way. You, whiskeyboy, obviously have neither.

My wife and I passed through Quemado a few years back.

We found Ken to be gracious and generous, with some truly impressive firearms in his modest collection. We are not ones to be impressed by wealth, and I found myself liking his modest home in such a nice setting, and thinking that I might hope to do as well myself some day.

Neither was there a hint of self-pity in the evident effects of age he was suffering even then. He did speak with fondness of his late wife, who had passed on perhaps decades before.

All in all I was reminded of the description of a John Wayne character.... "Alone, but refusing loneliness".

I have no idea as to the state of Ken's finances, it did occur to me at the time that he was the sort I would like to be.... someone who would refuse assistance as long as possible while passing on most of his own assets to family.

Neither do I know the number or financial status of Ken's child or children, or their attitudes towards their father. I do know that the parents are no more responsible for the actions of their adult children than a son is responsible for the actions of a father.

As for Ken's professional career, clearly it far eclipses mine tho like the song goes "...you never count your blessings while yer sitting at the table..."

Sooo Whiskeyman, I aint pissed, neither is Ken I expect, I hope you enjoy comfortable prosperity to the end, doesn't really matter, as long as yer castles ain't built on shifting sands. You and I both will be passing on before too long, and everything we own or not will be like pee in a bucket.

Maybe the handle sez all... When the booze wears off, consider deleting your onerous posting..

Unfortunatly, once the first reponce is posted he can't

His sig line is:

He who angers you, controls you!

Pathetic but understandable given his convoluted and unstable mind.

Won't bother Ken a bit if he reads the original post and others by the original poster. Only thing that would trouble Ken is the responses to it. He knows what happens inside a person when he responds with anger and resentment. His thoughts would be about his friends and their continued good health and good fortune. If he could, he'd get on here and tell you all to relax, hold no ill willl and that it don't mean [bleep].

You see, Ken is a very selfless man. He learned it from the Lord. The Bible doesn't instruct us to not do certain things because God doesn't like us doing them, it's because He knows the wages we'll receive for the doing. He doesn't want to see us endure the suffering. His instructions to not do the sin are for our benefit, not His. He's thinking solely of us. There are no thoughts of Himself involved. He only wants what's best for us. And that's exactly the way Ken would view this thread.

For years I read Ken's writings on here and elsewhere. Sought out his words, even. I always enjoyed his writing style, his wit, his charm, his steadfast stoicism, and his undying dedication to the people in his life and especially to the Lord Himself. I loved reading his stories of hunting and other outdoor excursions. I loved reading his teachings on the Bible and the word studies. I grew to love the man behind the stories and lessons. Got to know him through private conversations and emails, which just made it all the more. I wept when I read of his wife's passing. It tore his heart out. I felt the same way when posters on here did all they could to tear his heart out. Some of the crudest stuff I've ever read. They showed their character... and so did Ken. He stood much taller in every way. But he had made that a lifestyle long before. A fine man, through and through. Though a few have equalled that, a finer one I've never met.

I'd love to meet him in person. But a thousand miles between is a large barrier to that, so I've always had to settle for what was available.

Those of you saying Ken is nearing the end, know this. He'll disagree. He's only at the end of the beginning of life, the first leg of the race, the first short stretch, is nearly past him and he knows what awaits. Be not troubled. He's not. When he's ready he'll go. And I'll look foreward to seeing him on the other side.

Don't be bothered by WM. Ken isn't. And you know as well as I do he'd rather see you stand up strait.

You don't know the man or anything about him. Yet you feel it necessary to come on here and trash a man in the waning days of his life? I read on here more than I post and of all the posts i have read with Mr Howell in them. My impression of him has always been that he is a pretty good guy!

Oh and the PM that you received where someone slandered him.
I think you made that up!
