Kdawg What's happening to police officers these days aside from having their actions caught on film ? Surely a few bad cops don't make all cops bad. Are you saying that a few bad editorials don't make all editorials bad or that the "if it bleeds, it leads" media doesn't represent all media ? DFKiii, Can u remember an editorial that said something positive about the police? It would certainly be nice to read every now and then. | ||

Not necessarily an editorial but I've seen a few evening news pieces that were very positive. Still, I get your point. The press could work those stories a bit harder. | ||

Posts: 1000 | You know, there's a story about a company of a company in a town that didn't realize it's impact to the economy. So the owner starting paying everyone's bonuses in $2 bills. Pretty soon those $2 bills started showing up everywhere and people realized how much of an impact the company had on the little town. Maybe we need to do something similar. Maybe it's a stamp or something that we put on our cash, but shows that muskies really help create jobs and improve the community. | ||

I am curious if the folks who worry so much about muskies eating "their" walleyes are concerned about the impact other predators have on fish stock, in particular loons. Loons are terrific eaters. The WI DNR tech who did creel counts about 8 years ago on the chain where I live told me how on a research lake in WI, the DNR had stocked a fair number of 8 to 10" walleyes, each with a small tag. A few months later, a loon was found dead on the lake, probably struck by a boat. When they did the necropsy, almost a dozen of the tags from the stocked walleyes were found in its stomach. Apparently they did not break down, were difficult to excrete and therefore stayed in the bird. He said the biologists were somewhat surprised the loon ate fish that large. And then there are the river otters. I stood on my dock one day and watched a family of five go to town on a school of bluegills. I was close enough to see the blood on their whiskers and the crunch of bones. They seldom surfaced without a fish and they dove over and over again for almost 15 minutes. Warm blooded mammals who live in water need a lot of fuel. | |||

Posts: 639 Location: Hudson, WI | The Star and Sickle has been a rag for years. I always thought it cast the weirdo 612ers in a bad light. Then I read the comments section and found it to be a more accurate than I thought. | ||
