Simple Gourmet: Knife-Ground Meat Meals

How I Killed A Bear With A BB Gun

I felt sore and disappointed and all kinds of things. I worked with hounds and horses, the same way humans have always done. It all leads up to the two-tenths of a second it takes a bullet to fly straight into my next meal.
