This guy lives just outside of Soldotna , Alaska ...
Friends, Have I got a story for you guys! King season is over, and since I had a day off before silvers start, I Thought I would go for a walk! This occurred at 11:16 am this morning (Sunday), just 2/10 of a mile from my house, ON OUR ROAD while walking My dogs (trying to get in shape for hunting season, ironically!) for the Record, this is in a residential area-not back in the woods, no Bow hunting, no stealth occurring... I heard a twig snap, and looked back...full on charge-a huge brownie, Ears back, head low and motoring full speed! Came with zero warning; no Woof, no popping of the teeth, no standing up, nothing like what you Think or see on TV! It charged from less than 20 yards and was on me in About one-second! Totally surreal-I just started shooting in the general Direction, and praise God that my second shot (or was it my third?) Rolled him at 5 feet and he skidded to a stop 10 feet BEYOND where I was Shooting from-I actually sidestepped him and fell over backwards on the Last shot, and his momentum carried him to a stop past where I fired my First shot! It was a prehistoric old boar-no teeth, no fat-weighed between 900-1000 Lbs and took five men to DRAG it onto a tilt-bed trailer! Big bear-its Paw measured out at about a 9 1/2 footer! Never-ever-thought "it" would happen to me! Its always some other s[ch]muck, Right? Well, no bull- I am still high on adrenaline, with my gut in a Knot. Feels like I did 10000 crunches without stopping! Almost puked for An hour after, had the burps and couldn't even stand up as the troopers Conducted their investigation! Totally wiped me out-cant even put that Feeling into words, by far the most emotion I have ever felt at once! No doubt that God was with me, as I brought my Ruger .454 Casull (and Some "hot" 350 grain solids) just for the heck of it, and managed to Draw and snap shoot (pointed, never even aimed!) from the hip! Total Luck shot! All I can say is Praise God for my safety and for choosing to leave the Wife and kids at home on this walk! Got a charter tomorrow, so gonna TRY To get some sleep now!

No way I am going to let my kids watch that... EVER! ...gotta work on that kid problem. Mine's too young, but I have friends with older kids and they throw on the family or cartoon network when they come over for dinner etc. I've seen that stupid bear before. Sometimes, depending on the kid, the parents just want a couple minutes talking to someone their own age and if the stupid bear makes them shut up and keeps them occupied for a couple minutes, so be it. How do you think that stupid faggot Barney got so popular? -------------------- |

he said it was a old bear with worn or no teeth. I heard that makes them more dangerous to humans. must be they get too old to kill there own game, and see humans and pets as a easy meal.

I hated seeing it until my daughter sat quiet and watched the entire 1/2 hour, then all of a sudden I thought it was the best show on the tube. |

As for Barney, I dont know he's better than the teletubbies I guess.
