I see that the woman's name was quashed. Doubtless some hot dish
being kept on the side by a local politician. Smells like a cover up
to me. Clearly, she was trying to destroy a weapon of mast
reduction.....which Montana probably ain't supposed to have any of.

If one scrolls down the page just past the end of the story, there is
a headline proclaiming that the state of washington was attacked by
just such a weapon.

Uneasy rumblings in guts of the west.

Well, carrying a zuchini in your pants is a recipe for disaster.
Kevin V. opined that the bear ran away when he saw the zuchini 'cause
his neighbors had been pestering him to take some from their gardens
for weeks.

Some friends and I once grew a batch that went upwards of 24 inches in
length and 7 in diameter at the fat end. Never weighed one, but I
suspect that some got up to five pounds or more. We gave them to
anyone who stopped by for a visit. After a while they stopped
visiting.

Zucchini (at least in this part of the world) are supposed to be about
the size and shape of the customary native brook trout. These were
more like rutting salmon.

reminds a boy of all those critters of various orders, families and
genera with the specific name of "longipennis," which.....as i'm sure
we all remember.....means "prodigious appendage."

That's a great tactic! I can see the infomercials now.

I take it the Rangers were looking for a bear with a courgette(as we call
them) jammed firmly where the sun don't shine :-)

Courgette. Isn't that a young cougar? Then again, they're not
cougars if they're young. Mayhaps its what cougars use?

Used to be a joke in Maine:

Some tourist noticed that locals left their cars and houses unlocked
all the time. He asked "Do you always leave your cars unlocked around
here?" The local answered "Yep, 'xcept in September."

"Oh, why's that? Tourists and the like who come up for the fall colors
and steal stuff?"

"Nope. If you leave it unlocked in September, when you come out of the
store, some neighbor's filled it with zucchini."

Isn't a Courgette a sports car? "Little Red Courgette" was a song by
Prince, iirc.

Was it Prince? I thought it was Aubergine Dream...no, wait - that's
Vangelis...stuffing them...eh, maybe it's just a patch of purpleness in all this
prose...
