Sharing Hunting Area Can Prove Frustrating |
|
| |
Next time I go hunting around the Shenandoah. I'm leaving in the dead of night in an unmarked car and nobody is going to know my plans. Nobody.Beacuse somebody is out to get me.In October, the plans were carefully laid. I'd meet an old hunting friend at the crack of dawn at our put-in point on the North Fork and we'd float five miles of river, looking for fox and gray squirrels.There was no guarantee of good weather, no guarantee of good...

Ford: 'Born to Run the Four Corners' |
|
| |
The rites of manhood take various forms. For a backwoods country boy, it can be the first overnight hunting trip with his father.Increasingly, for black youths, the trial occurs on asphalt courts, where the mystical emergence from childhood is witnessed by a jury of one's peers. More meaningful than a driver's license, a half-dozen whiskers or the first embrace, the boy becomes a man when he can dunk a basketball.It is strange, the, that the player often...

The Forbidden Flesh |
|
| |
CULTURES TEND to impose supernatural sanctions on the consumption of animal flesh when the cost/benefit ratio of a particular species deteriorates. Cheap and abundant species whose flesh can be eaten without danger to the rest of the food production system seldom become the target of supernatural proscriptions. Animals which have high benefits and low costs at one time, but which become more costly later on, are the principal targets of supernatural sanctions.The most severe restrictions...

It Started With Tears . . . |

"It's true," said the man in the blue pin-stipped suit, adjusting his hornrimmed glasses, "that it started out with tears in the morning.""But," the Shah of Iran continued, emphasizing the "but," "it was the same last night after President Carter's remarks. THere were tears of joy in my eyes knowing of the unshakable frienship between our two...

Schapiro needed something to count on more than ever this year. In twenty-five years of listening to reasons for withdrawing major horses from a classic race, this was the first time he ever lost his most glamorous attraction to a social disease.Inasmuch as race horses in training are prisoners in their sixteen-by-sixteen stalls for twenty-three hours a day and well chaperoned in their exercises, The Minstrel is presumably a three-year-old virgin. But while he was winning the Epsom Derby...

'A Mad Gaiety, a Verve, a Gusto': Henry Miller Now |
|
| |
"When a man has reached old age and has fulfilled his mission, he has a right to confront the idea of death in peace. He has no need of other men, he knows them already and has seen enought of them. What he needs is peace. It is not seemly to seek out such a man, plague him with chatter, and make him suffer banalities. One should pass by the door of his house as if no one lived there."Typed translation from the Chinese on Henry Miller's front door....
