Carolyn Bryant talks back!

They are such a cool looking animal. And amazing to watch picking insects out of the air using sonar. Simply amazing stuff.

[msfit]

No.

While they may 'sonar' you and fly closer to check you out, they know you are much too big to be an insect.

I have seen wild turkeys here but no...it's not turkeys. I looked up bats in PA and they describe the sound as "chatter." I'd agree with that. The most common around here are Brown Bats. They frequent farmland (which I live in the middle of) and feed off the insects that hang around crops.


Big brown bats or the "Farmer's Friend" can be found during the day in certain barns and attics. At night they relentlessly feed over agricultural fields devouring crop pests.

Big Brown Bat (Eptesicus fuscus)
Second in size to the hoary bat, the big brown is 4.1-4.8 inches long; wingspread, 12.1-12.9 inches; weight, 0.420.56 ounces. The fur is dark brown, and the face, ears, and flight membranes are blackish. This common bat ranges throughout the state in diverse habitats: attics, belfries, barns, behind doors and shutters, hollow trees, in city and country.

Big brown bats fly at dusk, and generally use the same feeding grounds each night. They fly in a nearly straight course 20-30 feet in the air, often emitting an audible chatter.

Among the last bats to enter hibernation, big brown bats seek out caves, buildings, mines, and storm sewers in October, November, or December. They hang close to the mouths of caves. They emerge in March and April. Females bear young in June, usually two per litter. As young mature and leave the nursery colony, adult males enter and take up residence. Big brown bats have lived up to 19 years in the wild.

[GirlyMuscle]

It looks like it's saying, "Let me goooo!"

[Sledge]

yeah or, for christs sake dim that fucking light.

[Carolyn Bryant]

Do I hear crickets?

Leigh, it seems the explaining never ends. It's like education.

Origins of the article: You asked me to explain the comments made in response to "Women and Steroids, The Veil of Secrecy". I posed the question why is it a secret when the overdosing of male hormones is obvious.

Now I feel like I have to defend myself for stating obvious truths about how some people see women's bodybuilding. Don't hate the messenger, hate the message. I'm the bold kid who told the king he was naked. I'm repeating what people snicker about behind your backs and hesitate to say in your face.

My delivery: Yes, it does come off abrassive. However there is no easy way. I guess being honest is not politically correct anymore. Well, it is in my house. The truth hurts. And pain makes you grow.

Glaring errors: Let me repeat, I made a mistake in quoting someone and not checking it. Human winstrol was indeed approved and discontinued. But what does that have to do with the question and the statements? I said I thought it was a shitty drug. Apparently the medical community does too or else it would still be available. The discussion that followed was in reference to a vet version. Then Tatyana presents us with studies about the human version. Who is in error here? I think crack is a shitty drug. People like it and they smoke it.

What's with the literal translation? Most people know that the slag for clitoral enlargement is "penoris" - short for a clit that looks like a penis.

I'm not about to debate what is masucline and what is feminine. That is not an error. That is subject to perception. Talk to all my gay and drag boyfriends and let them tell you what they think is feminine.

Deca vs. Durabolin: My comment was in reference to deca.

Halotestin vs Testosterone: Chemo is poison. But if you need it you will take it. Do all of the women taking massive amounts of testorone really need it? No. Stick to the point, Tatyana.

Your delivery: Tatyana comes off spiteful and insinuates because I made an error about winny it negates everything I said. And that I'm not entitled to my opinion.

Holier than thou attitude: At no point did I ever say I don't or have never used any drugs. I made comments about specific drugs I don't like. I said I had good genetics and that I don't need muscle-enhancing drugs. That was not boasting. I consider that a blessing.

Pulling parts out of a discussion distorts the context. Much like Ms. California, I took a stand. Comforming is not an option. My beliefs come from the way I was raised.

PERSONAL CHOICE IS A GIFT, NOT A WEAPON.

[SallyAnne]

Carolyn - you're always using the term "massive amounts" (see above regarding test)

Can you clarify? Do you feel that ANY amount of these substances is bad, or do you think really low doses could be effective?

There are AAS you feel is OK for a woman?. What are the compounds you feel are safe?

[Sledge]

Yes, they love to make noise while they roost. I make a lot of wild turkey for that reason....LOL. MMM turkey jerkey.

Are the wild turkeys the same as domestic turkeys or a different animal?

[Peaceful28]

Oh...cute bats.

[Sledge]

Check out these guys. What an awsome looking animal. these ara about the same size as Deca, just add wings.
