Crazy Glue- Super glue
[quote=calvin humburg;51908]Richard, crazy glue works great on cracks but make sure the infection is out of it if it is infected may not be. But me and Dad use it all winter. Thank the medics and Corpsmen from the Vietnam era for that, Calvin. quickest was to close up a bleeding artery or veins. I always carry a field first aid kit, and waterless hand soap is a great wound cleaner- years ago I might have gone with Hydrogen peroxide, but a Lady friend who is also an RN told me- don't use it, as it 'burns" the blood vessels ends- But always clean out a wound- other wise you'll end up like Harry- in the great Hemingway short story-- "The Snows of Kilamanjaro""

My girl Bonnie, who roasted up quite nicely and was very tasty I can tell you - the grey jays are still picking on her carcass in the lower yard and will be fed the 3/8" thick slab of fat I froze and picked out of roasting pan - was banded by a biologist with whom I used to share a house in Anchorage and have known for many years. What are the chances??? - relatively high up here actually.... I called him last night and told him I shot one of his 'pets'. He said they banded 1000 birds so I'll keep looking. Another friend shot 3 banded birds out there this fall.

In town here it's $5/gal; in the remote villages it can be $9/gal.

Hi Richard
A bit off topic- I noticed in the last catalog I received that Filson used a quote from you. Nice. Has that been in there for long and I just missed it? Cheers Marc

Cool! I didn't know they were using that in hard copy catalogs. It was on their website for years; not sure if it's still there. I didn't know about it until a high school classmate sent me the page from their online catalog. I sent that to them about 25yrs ago I think. I think they may be using another of my things in there; a pair of double tin pants with something like "anything else of yours still waterproof after 16yrs of use?". I had a pair of tin pants I had used so much I had to sew new bottoms on the legs from the knees down but they were still waterproof. I finally got new ones and sent the old ones to Filson and told them to use them in ads somehow. I think they're in one of the catalogs I just got. No credit to me but I bet they're mine. They're worn about right and who else would be stupid enough to send a smelly old pair of pants back to them?!

Hah! That's great Richard, I'll have to dig out a catalog and take a look.
