You ever have someone say to you, you just have to let it go after you have been wronged and you just do something that makes you feel better so you can just let that one thing go and move one, but everyone thinks what you did to make yourself fell better about the situation and the fact that even though you were either in the right or the fact the that people doing the wrong thing are just getting away with is so you have to take the hit and not say anything when saying something or exposing the truth is what makes you feel better. Sometimes I think when you try to let things go that way you want them to is something you should do and have be able to defend yourself at all times, Everyone is different and they have a very different way of dealing with things. in some case I believe the kids of today are very soft and need a good hard slap up side the head. the skin on people these day are so thin if you put it up to the light you would see through it with no problem. Over the past couple of months I have looked at and listed to both or Dennis Leary's Books WHY WE SUCK and WHY WE DON'T SUCK. They are funny as hell I would highly recommend them to anyone as long as A) you have an open mind, B) you can laugh at yourself and C) you are no easily offended. He brings up some interesting points on many subject, as a matter fact the second book opens with a warning and how they now have readers that look for maternal that would be offensive to people and that three of them are now in therapy. To me that is signs of a great comedy routine. to me this shows he needed to let a few things go and the best way for him to do it was tell a few stories and talk about the things that he need to say. I like the way he let things go by telling the the truth to the public what was on his mind and how he felt. Now this might not have been the real reason for the books but they are damn funny and you need to have a good seance of humor to read/listen to them. In my left I have been told that I just need to either drop it or to let it go, so what do I do, I go out and I talk to a few people about what is bothering me and in a few days I'm done and I have let it go. I cannot just let someone do something to either me and my family and let them get away with it completely but not saying something or talking about it to a few people. The right to speak your mind and say what you want to say it your right. They only thing that I will remind someone is you have the right to say what is on your mind as loud as you want, but remember that the other person has the right to say what they want even if it the complete opposite of what you are saying and or believe.
Over they years I have seen that when you go to court you no longer put your hand on the bible and sear to tell they whole truth so help you god. That I believe is for many a reason, the prime one being not everyone believe in the bible, there is the Torah, Buddies and the Magi as well, there are many religions in the U.S. people started to refuse to put there hand on the bible and swearer to a god they didn't believe in so that started to change it, Hell there is even an episode of Quantum leap where a person refuse to say anything in court because they where going to put there and on the bible and they just couldn't do that. This also show more of the separation of State and Church as it was meant to be.
Everyone on the plant is different in more ways the one and how they feel better about them self and how they deal with things in away so they can let it go is up to them they should never be told that ways the wrong way to do it. Isn't the point for them to get things out of there head and forget about it when they have been wronged so they can move on with life. Everyone need thicker sick these days in my option, hell even people over the age of 40 need to get thicker skin every once and a while. I let things roll off my back all l the time, I take hits and if someone asks me if I am insane or crazy for doing something I look them right in the eye and go yes yes I am. In the past couple of years I have had people look at me and go did you really say that and my response is yes what is your point. People today are way to serious for me. No one has a good seance of humor. I my have a flat/dry seance of humor and I can see the funny in a lot of things both good and bad. Hell l have had days where everything has gone wrong all day or nothing has gone right on a project i have been working on to the point that it's no longer madding or I'm upset about it I just find it down right funny and I start to laugh because there is nothing left to do the situation has just gotten to that point. It's totally ridicules. That is when you just got to say something and you'll be able to let it go and get on with life.
You know they everyone says if you see something say something, but no one wants to hear it. I saw something and I said something yet I was in the wrong for doing so, because it was none of my business and I should just let it go. So I told they story to a few friend and it was gone. today more then ever we say say one thing but mean the complete opposite. You always hear stand up for yourself and be who you want to be, just as long as it's what everyone else wants you to be/do. the world has a closed mine and there is no real opening it. Yes today things are more and more exposed do to social media and everything, but somewhere in all of it we have lost are why and have become more divided then ever before.
Tolerance and accept the person next to you is just another person, people are people and we need to accept them for who they are. this has been a line we hear everyday and I hate to say it but is also a complete load of crap. DON'T get me wrong this is something I believe very much and I look at a person for who they are and what they show to me. Not all first imprecation are the true person in front of you, hell sometime what you see when you first meet someone is completely different then the real person they are, but in today's world you have to be what is socially exceptionable, that is very much trying to be changed on a level that is had to believe and the push back is somewhat crazy these days. It is getting better but it's there is still of oh hell no or really do I have to hear about this on a daily bases. There rights of one person should be the rights of the next person no matter who they are. There should be no special laws for one group or another. To me this creates a divide among people. You know many many years ago I hear about a court case where the defendant was being charged with assault and battery with intent to kill and they where also going to be charged with it being a hate crime, and half the community was up in arms because the person who was being charged was Black. What are hate crimes only for the white guy. You know that isn't true just look at the gang wars of the 80's and early 90's that was all about the color of your skin and the color of your shirt, but we are to just let it all go. Remember when it comes to a physical fight the person who wins is really going to be the loser when the police show up, because your the one still standing. You should have just let it go once the other person through the first punch.
In every case I'll say words are word fight back with them yell scream all you want but do not get physical because there is no reason to. If someone insult's you take it as if they are complementing you and return fire they should be able to take an insult right back. Give as you get but if you can't take it don't give it out. People are who they are going to be from a bully to the person behind you who just wants to pass it forward. just remember you words are words and when you someone wrongs you or you know you are right but you are wronged, do what every you have to get over it and move on even if it's writing a blog that no one reads or talking to your local bartender or Barista, because you know we all drink that 6 dollar cup of coffee at least once a week
Let's just leave it there for now
Stuff I think up as the day goes on and just need to say something about. Who care what you think this is just what's on my mind at the time

Asked to leave by E-mail Really
It has been a few years seance I have written any rants on anything and a friend of mine sent me this e-mail just that other day and I thought it was beyond messed up. One because it was all done over e-mail and No Phone calls or any type of voice contact was even considered. Two the scoutmaster didn't even know it was going on.
OK so this is might be a hard to read as you have to start from the bottom and work your way back to the top I have removed all the Name and the Troop number just because. I have no real problem with leaving everything in but for the sake of scouting I have removed them.
In the past I have written a rant on scouting and at the time I might have thought that way because I was rather mad about that situation. I have for the most part Thought the BSA/scouting was good for Boys and now Girls. They learn some very valid skills both for indoor and outdoor. I believe it to be a good program, until you hear and see things like this, But that is not on the Scouting it is more on the troop and the people running the Troop like the Charter org rep and committee chair in this case. as you read through it you'll see that the Charter org rep never reply's to anything not even his own misconduct.

On Fri, Aug 2, 2019 at 8:10 AM,You know really in the end I don't care I meant to talk to you about leaving at summer camp. I am primarily giving you grief because it's been three weeks. In situations like this it should be addressed almost immediately for anybody and anything. as I said the situation with The Charter Org rep was never resolved satisfactory for myself or other people in the troop, he is the reason why we have lost at least 2 boys in the past. He was to come to the troop and apologize for his actions and foul language on the day that we had to move out of the hut which he never did. The Charter org Rep being the charter org rep has always been a problem. The Charter org rep never wanted me as scoutmaster and I feel has been working against me and the continuing life of the troop for more than a year and a half.
I have no troop gear of any kind and we can set up a time to meet to give you the key to the shed. all I request are the awards due to my son and then my whole family will depart.Scoutmaster-------- Original message --------Date: 8/2/19 12:58 AM (GMT-08:00)Subject: Re: Troop moving forwardCharter Org Rep did exactly what I asked him to do Scoutmaster and that was to step away and if he need to get the troop to do something to let me know and I would make it happen. With that being said his problem was with you not a scout. I still handled it like I should have. But Im not going to play the blame game with anybody. If you don't want to excuse yourself from the troop to the boys thats fine too. In a few days I will do it myself. I told the charter org rep that I would let you know about asking you to step down so there wouldn't a big problem about it because we are all adults. I have other things I'm dealing with so lets please not make this any harder then it is. This is never what I want to do in scouting.

Also yelling at them. Later I found out from Scout 1 that the scout was scout 2. Scout 1 told me that Scout 2 reported to him that you told him that if he doesn't participate in the games that you will take his den cheif ropes away. I know this was very hard for scout 2 to tell Scout 1 this since you are his father. With That being said after talking to Shad and council for a very long time we have came to the final decision to thank you for your service and to let you know that you need to step down effective immediately. If you would like to save face to the troop that is fine but please do so asap. I know you are working with a scout 3 troop as well and that could be the reason you have to leave. The scouts don't have to know what went on behind the scenes. Please let me know when you can turn in any troop gear you might have and the key to the storage unit.Committee chair

IF can't say something nice don't say it REALLY
It is that time again when the Olympic Game and a the US has to elect a new president a time when the world is to come together to enjoy each other company and face each other in friendly games. The whole world will be watching as there country try to out do another all in the name of fun and peace while here in the US the fight for the President starts to people throwing mud and slander at one another. Where one is trying to being the world together for fun and games the other is trying to rip a country apart because they can't find anything nice to say about what they can do in the job we are left what the other person has done and said in the past. there is no fun and games in what they are doing or even far for that matter. Isn't the old saying IF YOU CAN"T SAY THING NICE DON"T SAY ANYTHING. now I am the last person to kind of to go in that direction of thing because I am all for saying what is on your mind. That is part of the 1st amendment and the freedom of speech you need to be able to stand on your soap box and say what is on your mind well at the same time there is another on the other side of the street on their soap box given the other side of the argument. this is the whole point of free speech but one must remember that you can only speak the truth (which most people are afraid of) if you can't say anything nice don't say it at all, but is that really the truth of the matter when it comes to most things because people need to know when something is bad or not worth the price one might pay. Yeah now I'm going to run the other way with this from if you can't say thing nice to, say what the hell needs to be said as long as it's true, because that is what we all need the truth, but when it comes to politics the truth is never out there only the twisted truth and mud cover truth you don't ever see the whole truth and clean truth the things that are done in an election year. As the world comes together to play in game for peace and fun the U.S. once again goes to war with itself to see who for the most part will be the next leader of the free world. The crap we are going to see over the next couple of months is something I just don't want to see. The people running for President this is year are more interested in trying to destroy the other then saying what they can or will do when they are President. This is one of the few years that I have seen nothing positive show up, we are in that choose of two evils and which is the one you want. As peaceful games go on in RIO the fight for the free world starts here in the U.S. flight mud and bad mouthing the other person, so IF YOU CAN"T SAY ANYTHING NICE is going right out the window because nothing nice is going to be said on the TV for the next couple of mouths I think it time to to the best thing and write in NONE OF THE ABOVE and see what happens

Big Smiles the loser speeks
The Bigger man
Lets start with remember to read the head line, These are my thoughts and Opinions and I really don't care what you have to say about it, so when I post something that is the truth and it's from the losing side so what. This is what the loser had to say. Ever person says that the they need to be the bigger man about things and just drop it they lost. My question is why? Ok so they lost but are they not entitled to tell there side of things and then be done with it. Are the losers of a fight not allowed to tell there side of a story. They lost why do they always have to be the bigger man and what the hell makes them the bigger man if the lost as a matter of fact they are the smaller guy and just got stomped on by the bigger guy and now they are just trying to tell there side of the story and no one want to hear them, because they lost and they have to be the bigger man. Well you know what I say screw that. If the guy who lost need to tell his story then let them do that, because they have as much right as the guy who won and what do they always say "it's the WINNERS that always write history." Well that's because the losers has to be the bigger man and not say anything because they lost. Screw that The loser should always be able to say what is on his mine and what his side of the story is and how he was beat in any given battle. That is the right to free speech. in today world we should be able to hear bother sides of the story, both losing and winning from the people that where there. I have a problem with people say well you just have to be the bigger man. the question is why I just got squashed I'm the smaller man. I'm the one who is looking up at the boot that just landed on me because the bigger man just won and you are telling me I should be the bigger man and not say anything anymore. Are you kidding. Yeah I just lost and have no chance to win in the future, but why should I drop it. This what the hell I think and I'm never going to be the bigger man because the bigger man won. Let me tell my side of the story even if I lost that is my right and because the winner is going to tell it his way and the losing side is not going to be told with total truth. So screw being the bigger man because I'm not I'm the smaller one and I have something to say and I'm sure as hell am going to say it I'm not fighting anymore I'm just finishing the fight with the epilogue for all to see. I'm not being a bigger man I'm not even being a sore loser I'm just finishing the story so it can be put away and move forward. the problem is that no one wants to hear it, so don't read it you don't have to but in this case here it is...
Big Smiles for BSA -one bad apple
So I finally got so flake about a post I wrote and in some why I'm happy about that and in another I'm up set about it. First I did nothing but stat the truth which I find piss people off and I need to stop doing it and second I brought a disagreement between to ADULTS that where not being ADULTS out into the the worlds eye, but what is being an adult really mean. Two guys are having a disagreement over something and it grows and grows tell it finally exposed and a third part is need to play intermediate. at what point are these two adults not acting as adults. they have a problem and find a third to help solve it. is it the way they are acting towards one another or what they are saying. I mean coming on we all all guilty of that. this what adults do, they disagree with one another and find away to try and move forward and that is what has happened he. The way forward was set forth by the third party. The guild line where clear thus nothing more could be done.. got it It's his way and that is pretty much it. You can put in your opinion and suggestions , but he doesn't have to take it or use them... NOW I WANT TO MAKE THIS PERFECTLY CLEAR the BSA troop that I talked about in yesterday's blog has a huge group of great people in it, they do what they think is right for the boys from beginning to end. The PATROL ADVISERS are set out to work with in BSA guild line and safety guide line to insure all the boys have fun and enjoy there time is scouting. YES I would still requirement the troop to any one that asked. I think it's a great troop, it's In this one Patrol I do not agree with the why things are done. It has away's been said and reinforced that we are boy's leading boys and I don't see that happening here.
The question is who is the BAD APPLE me (the Asst patrol adviser) for trying to get the boy to start making chooses on what they should do with there money (which this is really all about) and what they want to learn or the Patrol adviser for telling the boys what they are going to be learning and that the money the boys have errand is his to spend on the patrol on his time line and on what he thinks they need. so you tell me what you think, but remember to read the head line of this first
What is there more to say....
You know I don't think there is much more to say on this and in the end yeah I'm pissed off that I don't see things being don't the way should be and I was told that as long as the Patrol adviser is with in BSA guild line and safety guild lines he can run it how ever he wants. Yeah I'm Upset that We had to Patrols that became one and it feels like it's still we just joined the other patrol. Yes I'm upset that the Patrol I was leading folded and we had to join the two patrols because my boys would not show up to patrol/troop meeting and troop events. It's sad that these things have happened and I'm sure as Hell tired of people telling me to be the Bigger man..Because the truth of the matter I'm not I'm the smaller guy that has gotten his ass kicked around and now I'm tired of it so I'm saying something like I have the right to. Just in a very public form. using the Truth to back me up and if you don't like it to damn bad. I'm the smaller guy in this case and I want to be heard, you want to fire back go ahead I welcome it but remember I have all ready lost and just putting out my epilogue and by you telling me to be the bigger man is just making it grow, because I sure as hell am not. the bigger guy has his way

Big Smiles for the BSA
THE PROBLEM RANT...
So I have a boy how is boy scout and when we started there was one Patrol and then more boy's where add and the Patrol was broken in to two Patrols no big deal and time goes by and a few of my boys decide that they no long want to show to our patrol meetings or the troop meeting but when they feel like it and one or two or drop out and one moves away so we had to merge the two patrols together and form a whole new patrol. With time both Patrol's managed to gain money to buy supplies for camping or what ever else the patrol might need as long as the boys make the decisions because it is there money with guidance from the Patrol adviser. Now for the time we got our money I have been trying to buy the boys new cooking equipment but was unable to do it before the Patrols merge and the new Patrol Adviser refuse to buy then new equipment or anything they wants. he believes the money belongs to him not the boys. So I did the wrong thing and did an end run around and went to the boys and told them that they had Money to spend for new stuff and need to spend some of it. Because this years service projects are coming up and we might not get any money out of it because we have not spent any of the money we got from last years. Now the Patrol also has twice as much as any new incoming. So the Patrol adviser naturally is not happy with me but he finally agreed with the boys and broken down and said OK buy the stuff. SO I go home and make a phone call or two and have then money ready to pick up and a list of the stuff the boys wanted when I get and e-mail saying don't buy any thing..

Do not buy anything for the patrol. If you do it will need to be returned. I thought about everything you said and its clear to me that good decisions will not be rushed. I will buy for the patrol and get reimbursed from the troop on my timeline.
Please don't speak for the patrol anymore.
ME:
Please explain why, these are the things that the BOYS said that they wanted and need for future camp outs
Patrol Adviser .
The lines of commnication need to be clear. You stabbed me in the back so I can't trust you to do it. I'll cover it.
ME:
What are your talking about. I am lost on what is going on here and I have already made arrangements to get the money to buy the things the BOYS wanted.
So I have a boy how is boy scout and when we started there was one Patrol and then more boy's where add and the Patrol was broken in to two Patrols no big deal and time goes by and a few of my boys decide that they no long want to show to our patrol meetings or the troop meeting but when they feel like it and one or two or drop out and one moves away so we had to merge the two patrols together and form a whole new patrol. With time both Patrol's managed to gain money to buy supplies for camping or what ever else the patrol might need as long as the boys make the decisions because it is there money with guidance from the Patrol adviser. Now for the time we got our money I have been trying to buy the boys new cooking equipment but was unable to do it before the Patrols merge and the new Patrol Adviser refuse to buy then new equipment or anything they wants. he believes the money belongs to him not the boys. So I did the wrong thing and did an end run around and went to the boys and told them that they had Money to spend for new stuff and need to spend some of it. Because this years service projects are coming up and we might not get any money out of it because we have not spent any of the money we got from last years. Now the Patrol also has twice as much as any new incoming. So the Patrol adviser naturally is not happy with me but he finally agreed with the boys and broken down and said OK buy the stuff. SO I go home and make a phone call or two and have then money ready to pick up and a list of the stuff the boys wanted when I get and e-mail saying don't buy any thing..

I think WE NEED to set up an Appointment to Talk With scout master to get things straight an find out what my roll in the Patrol is compare to what I think it is.
Patrol Adviser
Talk to him. I don' t need to be there.
Don't spend any money.
ME:
I believe you do some how we have hit a wall with one another and the three of us need to get it straight
Patrol Adviser
You have hit a wall when you turned your back on the patrol and encouraged the commitee to take money from the patrol. Its not your money to give away. I spent that money not you. It was my money not yours. When how and if I get reimbursed is for me to deal with. You don not speak for the patrol, not when you act against its interests. I'm done with this issue. I need to focus on WORK,
ME:
It is NOT your Money it is the BOYS money and they should be allowed to spend it anyway they wish to. If I can get the Money for the treasurer to purchase thing the BOYS want/need then as an PARENT and ASSISTANCE Patrol leader I have that right . The Money is not yours and never was it belongs to the BOYS and the PATROL and the only reason you have so much in the first place is because I was unable to spend any of mine and the amount was transferred over to the new Patrol. SO if I want to spend my 300 bucks on stuff for the BOYS the I should be allowed to.
Patrol Adviser
I have used my money so far yo fund the patrol. You have no authority to spend any of that money .
Treasurer,
Please call me if there is sny confusion about this.
Talk to the troop leadership.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So in the in the end we had a cheat with the scout master asst. scout master and the Committee chair. After two hour of talking and a little yelling on every ones part the end result was He is the PATROL ADVISER and as long as he is working with in the BSA guild line and in the safety guild line. (No lose of life, lime or eye) he can do what ever he with is there is no wrong way to run HIS patrol and if the boys have no say on what they do and what they buy so be it and parents have no real say on what goes on in the patrol. Parents are there to watch out for there kids to make sure they are safe and move them forward, but the PATROL ADVISER is where the buck stops and that's it deal with it.
The reason we join this troop was because it was run by the BOYS with guidance and that is not what we got anymore now I feel that be have have a big smile and just go along with what ever the person in charge wants and we can't fight back because the leadership isn't going to listen to you as a parents and what the needs of the boys are. It's all down to what the guy in charge whats and thinks
in the en it all comes own to the type of Patrol Adviser you get. For the most part their is a great group of people working for and in the BSA

Great length's
And what if the writes ideas get people to look at history in a different light, look at history and what we know from another point of view. Is this so bad. I mean we have been told history throw the eye's of the winners for so many years it's not funny. What if we look at history from the point of the loser. What would you see what would the story tell you them, and the question is can you see the story from the other side which is the really funny part. I bet you Dollar to donuts that you couldn't or you wouldn't be able to do it for long because everything you see is wrong to you and those things that you see as a lose Sad to say Like Peal Harbor we turn in to yeah we got are ass kicked but we can back and won in the end so this is who it happened, but what does the other side look like and what of the war of 1812. Do we have much info in on that or hear much on that. Not really, why is that Oh that's right we got are ass hand to use, SO when something comes up like National Treasure and the Da Vinci code pop up people go to great and I mean hour and millions of dollars to disprove a piece of fiction. You try and disprove something and all you do is prove it right or you make people want to look at it from the other side know the other side so they can see and know the truth. Hell in some case it just might be a ploy to get tourist to come to some place and get a influx of money. Their is nothing like a conspiracy to get people to visit the place where it all takes place. Hell look at those stupid Twilight book. Before they came out Forks was a small little town in the west coast of Washington. Now they have full tours of where the books and movies take place from a simple one hour to a full day. Think of all the money that has been pouring into the small town and the surrounding, now throw that on a globe scale. When you put something like the Da Vinci code out you get people running to the Louvre and all the place that take place in the book. Same thing with the move National Treasure and Harry Potter for that matter. Hell For us Dresden Fans their is most likely a tour of Chicago showing where everything takes place. You know the Island in the books that Jim Butcher talks about. Yeah it's there just on on any map. Do you have any Idea how many people where at Chichen Itza on 12/21/2012 trust me you do not want to know. do you think there are any many pictures from that day and what of the mass group at Stonehenge. what do you think happened there. I mean come on you want a good story that was really start there with a thank load of fiction and I bet you will have people crawling out of the wood work to disprove it and say that nothing happened much like what happening with both the DA Vinci code and National Treasure. Both fiction that is being very hard to be disproved. Which as what happened at Chichen Itza was way beyond what you could possible imagine, but is very true. yet No one in the would would believe a single word of what truly happened even those who where there would say Damn you would not believe it so why even try and tell you. So Titanic is fiction in a real surrounding and people see it as a great piece of fiction no problems what so ever. Something like National Treasure or the Da Vinci code which is said from the beginning that the only thing real in the story is description of artwork, architecture, documents and secret rituals are real. people take great length's and great amounts of money to prove wrong. I find it massively funny and where as something like the mess that was at Chichen Itaz people would never believe what really happened there so they'll just leave it alone.
Prove fiction wrong and never know what is true because it just could have happened that is the mind of the human and what we get.

Roasting words...
The Things we tell ourselves...
Now we all talk to ourselves but the question is do we come away with anything most of the time I want to say no. when we are talking to ourselves it to either find an answers to a question to something we can't answer of to rationalize something out or even to yell and scream because all we could in in the past i just sit there and let the other person talk and no say anything or what the hell you are really thinking or you just left and argument and are still pissed off and need to keep going . Now that's a lot of reason for us to be talking to ourselves but in the end it's all healthy and needs to be done. Hell this is a away that I try and talk to myself now do I say everything that is on my mind at the time. No do I even get in to matters that I think I should because I need a second outlet to something that I have been talking to myself about for a few day's now no not really do i think I should do something like that. Sure why not get everything out in the open is one of the best ways I know to solve a problem or even to talk about something even if it's not a problem to make yourself feel better about. There are a lot of things that people talk to themselves about and in most case all they need is an out let someone or thing to talk to and get if off there chest, because once you have talked it out even with yourself you feel a little better and that's when you are talking to yourselves think what it would do if you talk to a neutral party that is just there to listen to you rant and rave about something. Isn't that why you come here in the first place to listen to some guy rant and rave about shit that with give to no knowledge. You do it to take yourself out of the world around you and make yourself think about something else or see something in which you can talk about and rant and rave about later in life when you are alone and have nothing better to do it's just who the hell we are to talk about thinks that have up upset or pissed us off because someone has disagreed with something we are doing or done that is us
Roast a duck....
What the hell do I know about roasting a duck hell I haven't even eating duck. I have eating some strange things but never a duck. sounds good but never done it and not sure I ever will there is a lot of things to do yet, but eating duck just isn't one of them. so let's fine away from roasting a duck which I have no Idea to do into something that is still even stranger because you know roasting a duck really can't be that hard hell I mean we roast a turkey and many people roast chicken how hard can it be to roast a duck just think about it it's another bird that you have shot out of the sky and taken home socked in water taken all the feathers of and removed the guts out of place them on the side to use later then smothered the whole thing in butter and other spices and placed in a oven. i mean it can't be that hard to roast a duck people do it all the time and some even do it everyday so maybe I should fine a duck and roast it just to see if I can. I mean I wouldn't have to shoot it defeater it or even gut the bloody thing I'll just have to cover it with butter and seasonings and put it in the oven to cook would be interesting to try I have never had duck before and if your going to have it for the first time you might as well as do it yourself so that way if you ever go out to eat dinner and duck is on the menu you can order it to see how it compares to your which if you make it for the first time or even the tenth time and maybe even find away to improve on your roasted duck. So go roast a duck..
