This is wonderful news! I haven't been visiting this site much lately, but finding this when I checked Shortgrass' Sunday sermon has made my day. I can only imagine the joy that Soapweed's family is feeling and we wish you all the best. We do have an awesome God!

We got word yesterday that Levi Wisness died in his sleep Saturday night. For those of you who don't know Levi, here's his pro-rodeo profile: http://www.prorodeo.com/Profile.aspx?xu=526 This is all I could find about funeral arrangements: Levi Wisness, 27, rural Keene, died unexpectedly Aug. 3...

Chase Adams, from the Chasin’ Ag show over KBHB Radio, posted this on another blog that brings up some good points:

The Brand Board's new inspection program is tanking even faster than we figured it would. Read this: http://www.rapidcityjournal.com/articles/2008/07/03/news/local/doc486c4ce39e6b0053611239.txt

Our latest issue of Cattle Weekly had this letter to the editor from Lyndell Peterson. He offers some insight into the background of the Brand Board debacle that most of us weren't aware of. Dear Editor: When the smell of burning grass drifts in, what does a rancher do? Dumb question. He...

Here's the latest on the brand inspection fiasco in South Dakota. I greatly respect former Senator Lyndell Peterson for taking a stand on this in defense of the livestock producers in South Dakota. The program wasn't broke and this idiotic move does nothing to improve brand inspection. Again...

I just got an email from a friend with the link to the story in the Rapid City Journal. As far as I knew, it was only going to be in the print edition but if this works you can read it online here: http://www.rapidcityjournal.com/articles/2008/03/20/news/top/doc47ddb7285f312392807651.txt...

Thanks for all your nice comments. I really appreciate them… and you!!! The Rapid City Journal story only appeared in the print edition. The slide show the nice young photographer from the Journal, Seth McConnell, put together is online and, if I’ve got this right, you should be able to view it...

SDH, this is ranch country. No, we are not required to get building permits. Like I said, what an idiotic idea.... Nuts, huh? Does that fall under the category of name calling? Just curious. :???:

If I was Tony Dean, I wouldn’t admit it either… You have no idea what dryland prairie even looks like, do you? Out here we pray for rain so we have enough runoff to fill some of those prairie potholes you want the federal government to regulate for me. Folks downstream from us are also praying...

Who said Dean wanted the government to own all land, especially any land Dean might own? I didn’t. Although Dean certainly is in favor of government buying land to use exclusively for hunting and fishing. Deny that only if you can show us facts to back it up. What Dean wants to do is have...

Here's another article from Tony Dean for you. Dean is not going to be happy unless the federal government gets control of every privately owned pothole, mudhole, and hard-pan spot in the nation. And this is the nut that sportmen let do their talking for them? If I was into hunting and fishing...

SDH, somehow I’m not surprised that you agree with Dean. It doesn’t bother you that Dean is talking about restricting what landowners can do with land they own and pay taxes on? Do you have a problem with landowners making a profit from the best use of their land or do you take Dean's view that...

Our old buddy Tony Dean is at it again. He would just as soon abolish private property and turn the west into one big hunting and fishing preserve... with him in charge!! How long do you think it is going to take before the Argus Leader quits printing his loony lies? Agriculture shouldn't...

In Canada your problems are completely different than ours. If you have a problem with a wolf, evidently all you need to do is shoot it. That seems fair to us. Down here shooting that same wolf will get you fined so much you could lose your ranch and you’re going to be locked up for a looonggg...

This is a long read so I only posted the first part of the article. Click the link at the end if you want to read the whole thing. In a bloody battle over control of public land, Mexican wolves are caught in the crossfire. By John Dougherty Jan 2, 2008 Debbie Miller, a hardy brunette with a...

Pearce not happy with wolf program Representative says wolf reintroduction is 'ineffective' Alamogordo Daily News By Karl Anderson, Staff Writer 12/20/2007 Rep. Stevan Pearce is expressing his discontent with regards to the direction the Mexican gray wolf recovery program is heading in New...

Thanks for the heads-up foreman. I'll have it in my column this week. Happy hunting and don't forget to comment to the EPA.

Remember Sinapu, that nutty bunch of enviro-wackos who tried to get the GF&P trapper from Harding County fired when he accidentally killed a wolf in the Slim Buttes? The trapper was called in because something had killed several calves and everyone thought it was coyotes since they were really...

And now these wolves are mysteriously disappearing.... Reintroduced wolf pack missing from New Mexico forest Associated Press Nov. 21, 2007 SILVER CITY, N.M. - The three-member Durango wolf pack is missing from its range in the Gila National Forest, dealing another blow to the federal...
