Distemper in OR Raccoons
« on: February 20, 2011, 10:22:08 PM »
Has anyone else heard about the outbreak in Clatsop County?  Canine distemper is contagious to dogs, raccoons, coyotes, and skunks.  We aren't hunting or trapping enough.

I saw something about it in the Lewiston Tribune not too long ago.  If I remember right they said something about 12 or so raccoons had come down with it and they were warning people to keep an eye on their pets.
What's the most dangerous thing said in the US Navy? -- A Chief Petty Officer saying "Watch this s$%^!!"

"I can imagine no more rewarding a career. And any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worthwhile, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction: 'I served in the United States Navy.'"
