the important thing is, the Bison will be OK despite its encounter with "a Massachusetts man" it probably decontaminated in old faithful afterword to be sure.
Politicians and bureaucrats are considered productive if they swarm the populace like a plague of locust, devouring all substance in their path and leaving a swath of destruction like a firestorm. The technical term is "bipartisanship".

I was at a roadside museum in Polson MT (http://miracleofamericamuseum.org/) last weekend and they have the craziest Sharps rifle I've ever seen.  It has a 4" diameter bull barrel.  Who is up for packing that thing around???

You could just hit the buffalo on the noggin with it  :lol:
Freedom is a heavy load, a great and strange burden for the spirit to undertake. It is not easy. It is not a gift given, but a choice made, and the choice may be a hard one. The road goes upward toward the light; but the laden traveller may never reach the end of it.  - Ursula Le Guin

Just give me a nice dirt bike and a nearby cliff. Oh, and some wimmens at the bottom to dress out the falling buff.  ;)
