A shooter with a dog working a hedgerow for pheasant is wasting his time when on his own. At best he is reducing the chances of the hunt by 50%. If he collaborates with a buddy, particularly one who knows the terrain, to walk on the other side of the fence, listens to him when he says what is happening or what coverts or obstacles are there, discusses the options, he increases his chance of success. If he doesn’t listen to his buddy or, worse, p##### him off, he is wasting his time and is doomed to failure,
US foreign policy in a nutshell.
We need each other. Most of us had great friendship with and respect for the US. Solo runs diminished that enormously. Let’s hope Obama will mend the fences.
King, good luck on the eye-op. Some years back my cousin in BC had to wait much longer for his, due to the high number of US citizens going north to get it done more cheaply!
Best,
K.
