[Midlodemocrat]

4. Do you need backup? I can get DS1 to cover you if need be.

[Gormy Cuss]

5. That's a good idea. I hear it's easy to get Lost in CT.

;)

[Midlodemocrat]

6. Especially when headed to Tampa.

[bluesbassman]

7. Imagine you're a deer. You're prancing along. You get thirsty.

You spot a little brook. You put your little deer lips down to the cool, clear water - BAM. A bullet rips off part of your head. Your brains are lying on the ground in little bloody pieces. Now I axe ya, would you give a fuck what kind of pants the son-of-a-bitch who shot you was wearing? :)

[JenaLaw]

8. need help?

I live in CT

[Midlodemocrat]

9. My eldest was born in Norwalk Hospital. I used to live in South Norwalk.

[JenaLaw]

15. lucky you....

you escaped! hehe

I live in Norwalk now. Have been there for about 15 years. It has changed a lot!

[Lost in CT]

17. They have a Walmart now for one thing... but on the bright side

they also gained a Costco... (complete with underground parking no less)

[Midlodemocrat]

19. I was there about a year ago. It has changed a great deal.

It was my first apartment out of college; a duplex on Ferris Avenue.

Then I moved to Darien, New Canaan and Finally Stamford.

Lots and lots of changes. Don't recognize the places at all.

[Gormy Cuss]

11. Thanks for the kind offer, JenaLaw.

'Tis a copycat.

10. "Connecticut has the highest rate of Lyme in the United States"

That's why they call it LYME disease. Know your geography, people.

[Gormy Cuss]

14. That is a 'Captain Obvious' fact on the poster, isn't it?

There's a possibility of contracting Lyme out here now but it's still pretty rare. When I lived in Boston I never went to the Crane Reservation (an early hotspot) without wearing long sleeves and sporting lots of Deet.

[DeepBlueC]

18. I was quoting the poster itself

And, yes, it is obvious especially to people in CT who know that the Lyme in question is the town of Lyme, CT... Lyme disease was first identified there.

[crimsonblue]

12. does Ct have a deer season for hunting or is it year round?

NW Kansas had a similar deer over-population problem, and the state expanded hunting season. Since then, much of the problem has been alleviated.

[Lost in CT]

16. No hunting allowed.... At least in surburbia...

We had one deer show up dead with an arrow wound. You would have thought he was a missing blond girl with all the activity it caused around here.

[DeepBlueC]

21. My cousin hunts in my brother's suburban CT backyard

It's a big back yard with a small orchard and some woodsy areas in the way-back but it's no more than 15 minutes from the state capitol. I don't know if he uses a hunting rifle or a bow there but whichever it is it will be in season and within the law.

[Lost in CT]

22. Well we are talking lower ct surburbia... where the sounds of a hunting rifle

will bring out the swat team... nt

[DeepBlueC]

23. what's lower suburbia?

I'm talking Manchester here.

[Lost in CT]

24. Southern Fairfield county...nt

[Sisaruus]

13. I'm in CT

We've got lots of bears wandering around suburbia, too. So many that our local public school system teaches bear-safety in all grades.

[Midlodemocrat]

20. We had a bear on the grounds of the high school three years ago.

I wanted them to slather the high schoolers in honey and put them outside to trap it, but no one would take me up on that.

[Lost in CT]

25. That sounds like a sensible and pro-active approch...

Perhaps some underachieving freshmen could have been "volunteered"

[Captain Hilts]

26. Submarine Capital of the World!!! Groton Connecticut!

[Bravo Zulu]

27. I spent three months in Connecticut,

picking tobacco!

[Skittles]

28. I guess there's no gators there

[KamaAina]

29. And you have to leave gay-friendly California, too

:sarcasm:

Just had to get that in on behalf of one of the first two marriage equality states.

as to Lyme disease, it is highly unlikely that mid-March will yield anything resembling weather suitable for walking in the woods, which is where Lyme is transmitted. Trust me. I lived there for a total of 15 years.

[Gormy Cuss]

30. Whaddaya mean, unlikely that the weather will be suitable for a walk in the woods?

psst...
