A moose is stalking me. I'm not stalking it. I think. Today he was in the horse pen pretending to be a horse but I saw through his clever disguise eventually.

You're not stalking it, eh?

I'll hesitantly buy that.

Was it wearing a hat? You dress them up in pretty things you have to expect them to come back....

Along with a veritable menagerie of fantastic male specimens, Ray.

From the title of this thread, I just assumed that RR had invented a new kind of hat, and that he was perhaps turning into the Canadian Sherlock Holmes. The truth is both stranger and, at the same time, somehow less satisfying.
If an opinion contrary to your own makes you angry, that is a sign that you are subconsciously aware of having no good reason for thinking as you do. If some one maintains that two and two are five, or that Iceland is on the equator, you feel pity rather than anger, unless you know so little of arithmetic or geography that his opinion shakes your own contrary conviction. … So whenever you find yourself getting angry about a difference of opinion, be on your guard; you will probably find, on examination, that your belief is going beyond what the evidence warrants.

I see them almost every week. Driving cars, checking their mail boxes, doing groceries. Everybody else seems to ignore them so I play along. For now.

A moose almost killed me once, can't say I've been a huge fan ever since.

They taste delicious though!

Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.

Hmm I've didn't havw you down as a moose-botherer :)

Also I missed the opportunity of eating a buffalo burger while I was in Texas and I'm still upset about this. I never really thought of moose as a delicious animal before. Do you have moose steaks or what?

They have moose juice in the caboose that's running loose in a field of spruce, while wearing chartreuse and petting a goose 'fore signing a truce held by a masseuse then escaping a noose by playing a deuce - or was it a full hoose? - anyway, always aboose moose juice.

I don't really know who RodeoRanch is but this post made me convinced he's a time traveler the early 1900's, an early settler of the Prairies and has sadly contacted winter madness from seeking shelter in a single room sod house during the long dark winter months. Or the Age of the Moose is finally ascending into it's rightful place the true golden age of earth.

I was a fan until one charged my car for no reason. We weren't even near the damn thing! Thank god it missed because the civic would have been crushed.

There are lots of different ways to eat moose: steaks, stew, pot roast, ground up for burgers, etc. Any way you can prepare beef is applicable to moose. However, I'm not a hunter so I rarely get to eat it. :)

This is not far off from the truth.

However, you must remember that Rodeo is also a sworn enemy of crows, giant mowing equipment and pants.

I found myself within a hundred yards of one in the Boundry Waters once, and it was scary as all get out. Freeze...back away, please don't care I'm here, please don't care I'm here, please don't care I'm here. Bastards are huge.

And hate Honda Civics for some reason.

Moose is delicious. It is less gamey than venison. I have a freezer full of the stuff right now thanks to my hunter father. I had some moose sloppy joes.
