Elk Social

 Payson has an Elks club, but here the Elk are real. Last night Kadizzle came upon three huge elk at the end of our street. The elk have become so tame in Payson they pay little attention to people or dogs. Not long ago two of the big ones were on mainstreet under the trees enjoying the shade. Apparently two of the monsters on the street last night are well known. The locals have dubbed them Ben and Jerry. To the locals they are nothing new, but to an old married couple from Hazen, North Dakota seeing the large beast is exciting. Was hoping they would come through our yard. A couple of grandchildren are visiting down the street. The ten year old had never seen an elk before and quickly ran home to report to Grandma " There is a strange animal with horns".

Talked to Bob last night an he said one elk took him two years to eat. Our builder said it is legal to shoot one from your porch in season with a bow if you have a permit. Hope no one shoots Ben and Jerry. 

New York Times today has an article on how Alex Jones made millions lying to idiots. Trump of course is a buddy with Alex, not kidding. Trump has shown the power of lying. Fox News has made billions from telling falsehoods to idiots.  It used to be liars were fringe money makers, but now it has become big business. The abundance of stupid people makes the harvest easy. According to the article Alex Jones has lied about every major news story. He does not miss a chance to lie. Of course Trump is right there with him.
