‎"DEET will not deter a hungry bear." -- Deepak, Jr.

 

It’s sort of a Roger Miller wisdom…you can’t roller skate in a herd of buffalo, or some such thing.  You must be prepared.  But, a jackknife will be no match for a hundred-foot Ponderosa pine.  Better to walk around with two .45’s, a sawed-off shotgun with a silencer, six grenades, a bottle of C4 and a cell phone and, just for kicks, a bottle of bleach.  After all, the U.S. Constitution allows us to do this shit.  Leave the DEET at home, dude.  Pack a flame thrower!
