So no blood diamond from Africa? • I did my researches and guess what Mexico as the same marriage laws as France: "When you marry in Mexico you must indicate whether the marriage will be of separate or joint property (Sociedad Conyugal Legal). If you choose “joint property”, then 50 per cent of property acquired during the course of the marriage belongs to your spouse in case of death or divorce." So for one my belongings previous the the marriage stay mine cause it's written in the Mexican marriage law and second, your Texan so you have no say in a Mexican or a French wedding • Of course my husband will like to share me with my herd, he'll even enjoy spending time with us all • why not, a cat's life doesn't mean less than a humans life • Nope, excuse for having a conscience 5

Albert1434 Posted March 22, 2023 Posted March 22, 2023 (edited) 7 hours ago, Headstall said: Absolutely. Bears don't like loud noises, and that bell is loud. I keep forgetting to get an air horn or bear spray, so this will do until I do. Bears are waking up now, or very soon, so I want to be prepared. I haven't seen one in a few years, but they are around. Sorry Gary, the bell is so the bear isn't surprised by you and eats you! Edited March 22, 2023 by Albert1434 4
Albert1434 Posted March 22, 2023 Posted March 22, 2023 One way to keep this from happening is to make noise, and some hikers use bear bells to do that. Bear bells are small metal bells like sleigh bells. Hikers tie single bear bells or clusters of bells to their boots, backpacks or walking sticks. The idea is that -- since the bells don't sound like any natural forest noise, and since bears almost always want to avoid people -- the bear bells will keep the bears away. 4
Albert1434 Posted March 22, 2023 Posted March 22, 2023 (edited) On the surface of it, the idea of bear bells makes a lot of sense. As with most wildlife, like mountain lions and moose, the key to surviving an encounter is generally to avoid it in the first place, and most such animals prefer to give us humans a wide berth than square off in a hostile confrontation in the woods. In fact, it seems downright polite to let them know when you’re planning to be clumping through their territory in your hiking boots so that they can move along. Edited March 22, 2023 by Albert1434 4

I know all about bear bells. It's why I thought of taking the school bell until I get a canned airhorn. 3

I'm trying making the best of it. Saturday I was at the local gay bar with friends. Monday at a small club with Aod and my best friend sipping Thai spirits cocktails and listening to live music. Last night Aod and I went with my best friend and his boyfriend to a disco. 3

I don't want to walk down the road wearing bear bells... the neighbors will think I'm crazy. I just want to be able to make noise when I need to. I stay on the road during my longer walks. 4
