About the only thing I do that they did is eat jerky...

Just made some venison jerky with my son the other day. Had to hide it to keep he and my daughter from taking it all to school. Last fall, at the beginning of the year, we made a big batch, and I found out later my son had taken some to school 3-4 days in a row to let all his friends (small, poor urban grade school) try some. On Friday, they had Student Council elections, and he came home to tell me he'd been elected in a landslide.

I started laughing. "So that's what a vote is worth these days -- a stick of deer jerky? You run on a platform of a chicken in every pot and  jerky in every lunch box?"
