Really, Canada? Super pigs? What were you thinking? I mean, of all the countries in all the world we might’ve imagined would bring about the end of mankind in some manner, did any of us pick Canada? Russia? Absolutely. China? 100 percent. The U.S.? Be honest. France even? You’ve seen them riot, right? But Canada orchestrating events that will make the world uninhabitable for mankind — using pigs? It all started in the 1990s when the Canadian government and some pig farme...
“The pain ran from the outer edges of my rib cage, across my diaphragm, here to here,” I told Kathy. “It started right after I got out of bed and got worse during the morning. It hurt to move.” “Sondra, you had a heart attack!” she said. “Did you go in to the hospital?

Do you still hurt?” “I figured it was a pulled muscl...

Out our way the terms "greenhorn" or "tenderfoot" for a cowhand denotes a beginner. Seasoned cowhand all started out as greenhorns - some began early as little kids learning under the tutelage of their parents and family, while others came to it later in life. I, of course, was of the latter category, and I sometimes felt embarrassed by young kids who could ride and rope and even knew what the heck a "houlihan" was. (Google it, tenderfoot!)

She said that she noticed 'Mary' was breathless and so excited, that it even took her breath away! And another day, how happy her...
