Youngsters invited to squirrel hunting clinic
The Mo. Department of Conservation will offer a squirrel hunting clinic beginning at 7:30 a.m. Saturday. It will be free-of-charge and open to youngsters ages 11 to 15 who are hunter-education certified and accompanied by an adult. After a 30-minute orientation, the youngsters and accompanying adult will go to an assigned area to hunt until 10:30 a.m.
A lunch of hot dogs and trimmings will be served at noon, along with a couple of squirrel dishes prepared for sampling.
Trimmings? Um, I don't know, but the favorite squirrel dish I've heard about in the Ozarks is deep fried squirrel brains.

. . .Since you will have lots of time to think, consider why some of the other hunters wear camouflage long johns, camouflage watch bands, and carry camouflage hankies and cigarette lighters. Do they really think deer will see them in their underwear or tell time by their watch? And which is more likely, that they want to look as if they just stepped from the pages of a Cabela’s catalog or that their wives are hard-put to find them Christmas gifts?
Maybe the squirrel hunters should have a fashion clinic, too.
fair warning: on block island or manhattan or in missouri, we can be a little salty
