Cougar in the Hunt Part 2: Did You Really Say 21?
As per tradition, our closest friends gather at J&P's place home, after concerts, to socialize, to extend the intimacy of the festivities, and for myself, on this occasion, a chance to sober.
By some instantaneous force of male nature, a margarita drink ended up in front of me by Tin-Man or Mr. Man. Tin-Man and Mr. Man collectively offered to buy me a margarita and collectively jumped up to make the purchase, before I could change my mind. When confronted with the offer of another margarita, I mentioned that I was driving. Mr. Man responded quick with a multitude of answers, of which he volunteered various services- He could drive me home and he would take me wherever I wanted to go, he was only having the one beer, no problem, he would make sure that I made it home safe, I was in good hands- When Finesse interjected the after-party invitation to J&P’s. Mr. Man looked her way for the information and then back to me, saying, “If that is where you are going, then that is where I am going. I will go anywhere you are going. No matter where

Man made his declarations, including the promise to be my designated driver, Finesse giggled with hysterics at his upfront pursuit of me. She called me a cougar and made big cat noise as she flapped her paw at me. As the tequila portion of my margarita singed my tongue in passing, I felt the soil of the cliff’s edge I was standing on, crumbling beneath me, gravity pulling me downward. One of my dearest friends was souzed and could see clear as day, in the dark desert night. To gain my balance, I responded by saying we could all go over to J&P’s place in one car, since I knew that Finesse and Tin-Man constituted at least one safety net besides all of our other friends. I may have been teetering on the edge, but I was among friends. As always, J&P’s place being so close was a firm foothold, I reasoned as more of my margarita made its’ way over my tongue and straight to my

    N-V Cougar Practice It was just another regular day to practice for the Niobrara-Verdigre Cougars at Niobrara. All of the Verdigre football players despised going over to Niobrara for practice. It was the usual ride over there with all of us talking about how school went that day, about football, or about other topics in the news. We would turn up the radio if a song came on that most of us could sing since we knew the song. It would seem sometimes that it seemed we were on the way to choir practice not football practice.…

    Introduction: Mule Deer once thrived in Western Nebraska, but now their population has gone down due to hunting, predators, and disease. Many people take for granted the wildlife that we have. Mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus) once roamed the western United States in the millions (Holechek et al 1982). When the first white man came in the early 1800’s, the number drastically declined. The reason for this is partially due to the Tragedy of the Commons.…

    When Chris first began his journey to the wild, he caught Jim Gallien’s eye while walking on the side of an Alaskan highway. Gallien offered Chris a ride, and shortly into their conversation he learned considerable amount concerning Chris’s plans to live in the Alaskan wilderness. According to Gallien, it was easy to notice how lacking Chris was in terms of supplies and knowledge about where he was going and what exactly he was getting himself into. For his time in the wilderness, Chris only packed a twenty-pound bag of rice to sustain him. Gallien recollected, “He wasn't carrying anywhere near as much food and gear you'd expect a guy to be carrying for that kind of trip.”…

    In ‘The Rattler”, the tension and duty reflect the sorrow the man felt after killing the snake, but revealed his role when protecting others. The man was not at ease when he consciously decided to take the life of one of nature's creatures, but was enlightened knowing that he saved human lives that were potentially in danger. In other word, the man was conflicted between choosing to kill an innocent, but harmful snake or to fulfill his job of protecting the weak. The author's diction heightens the vehement and conscientious thoughts of the man when contemplating taking the life of the snake.…

    Looking back on it now,I feel as if I could have perhaps seen this coming,if I had paid closer attention to Fortunato’s misbehaviors as we were growing up. That I could have perhaps foreseen his betrayal,and perchance change the outcome of what is now the smoking wreckage that was once our friendship. Fortunato had always been an overindulged child, wanting anything and everything he could get his hands on the moment he saw it,and when he couldn’t do so through his family’s wealth,he’d stoop to petty schemes and trickery,and ultimately,betrayal. I was credulous to think I was an exception to that. And once I had something he wanted,he wasted no time in stabbing me in the back.…
