Neanderpundit

last night i dreampt I was in my old neighborhood, where I grew up. I was housesitting for the folks across the street when a deer ran past my window, and I went out to see it, and it charged me. I grabbed it by the antlers at the last minute and drove it’s face into a porch railing, which knocked it out. I called DNR to see if I could keep it, and they said “you don’t have a porch license for deer” and gave me a $500 ticket. And confiscated my porch. Nice deer, too.

On the front: USMC.
on the back: “PAIN IS WEAKNESS LEAVING THE BODY”

Damn. I like that.

It’s a week till Christmas. Find someone who needs something, and get it for them, if you can. Shovel a walkway, insulate a window, make sure someone who can’t get to mass another way can do so. Make a difference. Even if the person in question may not ompletely deserve it, actually better if they don’t. The undeserving nature of the recipient doesn’t diminish the value of the gift.
