Beside a dead maple, my neighbor from the next farm, Mark Shepard, cradles a Remington .280 rifle. I am a spectator today. So is Mark's son Glenn, 14. Glenn, a crack shot, has hunted turkey and pheasant with shotguns and deer with bow and arrow. But in New York State, he cannot legally go after deer with a gun until he is 16. That doesn't matter today. Glenn is excited but silent, testing the wind with a wet finger, flicking his eyes through the woods like any good hunter, alert to motion...
...bucolic scene straight out of classic Disney: birdies flutter, bunnies nuzzle, a Bambi-esque deer gracefully grazes. And then--VROOOM!--the idyll is disrupted as a Reptar wagon rumbles through with some screaming toddlers aboard. Danger: Rugrats at work...

...player itself, at 20X, is fast enough to run most software. I was able to stalk deer in the hills of Pennsylvania playing Deer Hunter II, though installing the game and loading it seemed to take forever compared to how long my 30X desktop machine needed.

...Wildlife for season, permit, and species information. For those who seek the exhilaration of stalking beasts of horn and claw, the Big Game firearm license is $27.50 (unfortunately, out-of-state hunters have to shell out almost 100 smackeroos). Alongside the usual fare of black bear, white-tailed deer and quail, a multitude of neighborhood critters can be turned into shish-kabobs. However, the crow, opossum, bullfrog and snapping turtle might provide scant amusement for marksmen of considerable moose hunting prowess. Aspiring trophy hunters and greenhorns of Harvard Yard, take note: Grey squirrel season opened October 17, with...
