Since I don’t have skippy around, I thought I’d share my survivors guide to LOS (lack of Skippy).
1. Every time I see a post from skippy-ville, I just sit quietly with my eyes closed and repeat the following chant. (Bourbon helps)
“It’s just a Photoshop image”
“It’s just a Photoshop image”
“It’s just a Photoshop image”
Repeat as necessary.
2. My secret recipe for LOS
Mix the following in a large bucket:
1 large bottle of ketchup
2 pounds of round steak cut in cubes and thin strips (your choice of ratio)
1 box of dark raisins
1 cup of long grain white rice
6 dozen plastic fishing worms (Cabelas IK-134995 in PB&J works well)
If you can snag some faux fur, put some scraps in the mix.
Place mixture in small zip-lock sandwich bags and shoot away.
It’s a heck of a mess but gives a reasonable photo opportunity.
3. Set up your shooting bench in the back yard. Shoulder an imaginary varmint rifle of your choosing. Be bold. Think Dakota or Cooper but make it a favorite.
When you holler “BANG”, have your wife pitch the cat in the air. Practice taking a slow-motion video of the launch.
Remember, no matter what your weather or varmint situation, there’s always something to do in the great outdoors.
Please share your survival techniques.
