I told my mother that everyone hates me.
She said I was being ridiculous - everyone hasn't met me yet.

Close encounters of the turkey kind
The Old AF Sarge wrote a post about turkey encounters the other day
Just by coincidence I am able to provide some information about turkey encounters here in the Golden State
Even better... it's video.
This one's relatively tame
This one's a tad scarier
The really scary thing about the videos is those are urban areas where the birds can't be hunted
At least out here in the boon tules (pronounced toolies) turkeys remain in hiding because they are fair game
Lord help the city folk if the coyotes and mountain lions find out about the city birds
Pretty sure I wrote about time twenty or so turkeys blocked traffic while I was driving to work. Hell of a sight to see in an urban setting. And those birds just plain don't give a damn.

Dear Edward,
Every morning, before I start my day, I wash my face. And I think of you.
Every night, when I wash my face or, let’s be real, when I decide...

About Censorship
I'm not in favor of it. That said, I find the gratuitous use of certain words and phrases unsavory. Their widespread use reminds me of too many habanero chilies in Jamaican jerked chicken. The chicken is overwhelmed. Occasionally one of those words will find its way onto this blog. When it does, I will gut it if I catch it.
WARNING
Just because there is a post today, doesn't mean that it was posted today.

Orphaned. Divorced & Remarried... not necessarily in that order.
Initially, I was intending for this to be a graphic rather than prosaic, but I realize my limitations and fully understand that I have no idea what prosaic really means. I do know that my thought process requires much stimulation and that I am reactive rather than active. Hence my reticence in starting a blog.
Sometimes I may actually post a serious thought. That is absolutely no indication of maturity.
...if there are any, or they haven't been canceled or revoked may be found... in all their glory... at the bottom of the page below the posts. those who choose to present me with an award should be aware that I am selfish and do not share well. To date I have only presented one award. That was to see just what kind of reaction I would get. It wasn't pretty.
