Banner Got Skunked

 

Banner Made a New Acquaintance

The internet sources recommend a mixture of hydrogen peroxide, baking soda, and a few drops of dish washing soap. At 2330 choices are limited. That helped. Three baths later there is still an odor. A cousin in Texas recommended this product.




It worked better than the H2O2 mixture.

 My fault. I let him off the leash before checking out the hillside he likes to explore. The ladies in the building all have opinions and are not shy in offering them.

Banner? Once his mouth was cleared, he didn’t care at all.

Conspiracy Theories – Climate Change Aligned

Starting with the word “robust”, the current buzzword for wannabe tyrants, suspicious minds can find several ways this “scientific” study feeds into the NOW agenda and general econazi goals. Note that it comes from Satan’s laboratory.

The devil is in the details. For example, with an already underfunded/understaffed police department how will public safety be assured?

The picture is off the internet. Location is  San Francisco.

 Will the current tent dwellers be willing to move to a place with rules and restrictions?

Denver has always been a city with an unlawful edge. What makes the mayor think that will change?

Finally, the City of Denver is a financial disaster.

Somewhat related, the local rag publishes a weekly oil spill report. Please keep in mind the county has 17,000+ wells. Many are inactive.

Attempted Suicide by Cop

The story isn’t unusual but the prison sentence shows the difference between rural areas and Democrat run big cities.

Fort Collins is the county seat and much of the I-25 corridor is being built up. Think of Fort Collins are a blue smear in a red county that voted GOP 76% in the last presidential election.

UFO Interest

Colorado’s San Luis Valley (Headwaters of the Rio Grande River) has long been a hot spot for UFO sightings. One resident has made a business out of public interest.

While neither a believer nor skeptic, circa 1972, I had an experience I cannot explain.

Around 0100, traveling westbound on Wyoming Highway 39, in a moonlight valley with the Wasatch Mountains in the distance, a huge irregular shape passed in front of me traveling north to south. Perhaps five to ten miles in front of me, it absorbed all the moonlight. My car, a 1972 Ford LTD, started running poorly and I stopped. I could clearly see the mountains in the distance on either side of the object but not directly toward the object. All of this lasted about ten minutes (long enough to exit the car and empty my bladder) then the objects was gone. The car went back to running normally.

To answer a question others may have, I was stone sober and not a drug user.

Damn, as if our traffic on US 34 and I-25 isn’t bad enough

The Moffat Road never extended past Craig, CO. There are no geographic challenges to extend it to the old D%RG, now Union Pacific, line in Utah. This might be an alternative solution.

 Snide side note. Utah has significant deposits of tungsten. Right now all of our tungsten is imported. One guess as to who is the primary supplier.

Regulation!!! More Regulation!!!

OK, this is from New Zealand. Who doubts the woke USA crowd salivates on this kind of news?

As always, YMMV

There is a lot to take in.

First, poor Banner may have learned a lesson but dogs being dogs usually don't. I'm happy that there is a shampoo that will address the odor. I'm only happy that it wasn't a porcupine.

I can't say that the USGOV didn't have aircraft in that timeframe that might not have done the same thing as the unidentified object did.

The blog reflects my unfocused mind.

Banner is a short haired dog and the skunk oil was absorbed into his skin. I see more baths in his future but each time the smell is less noticeable. It comes back when you pet him.

What I saw in 1972 vaguely looked like an aircraft carrier in size and shape. It wasn't symmetrical.

Concur on NOT a porcupine! That's an expensive vet visit! And glad you got 'most' of the odor gone, sadly he'll do it again if he gets a chance... sigh Re the rest, good luck with that stuff!

He is ok until you pet him then you get the odor. How do you not pet a dog?

We always used a can of tomato sauce rubbed in well then a bath or two. The worst was when the female had a litter in a closet in the back of the wood shed and the skunk came wandering in and spayed the whole bunch when she took exception to being invited. One time we had some half grown chickens killed by a skunk so she may have been defending their lives!

I've never seen a UFO, but my non-drinking Father did. Twice. I'm not sure if he believed in little green men, but as a commercial rated pilot, he was certain they weren't from around here, so to speak.

It has always puzzled me that sane sober people, whose testimony under oath wouldn't be questioned, are greeted with skepticism when they say they saw something strange. I'm reminded of three ranchers near Yampa, CO who saw a hairy bipedal animal (Bigfoot?) one day. I personally believe them.

Skunking's awful.

I used to know these fools who'd spotlight and, sometimes, shoot skunks.

No. Idiots. Don't do it.

Skunks have their place in our world. Jerks will alwyas find something to bother that isn't bothering them.
