Duck Pond Redneckery


Never mind. It died.

I knew it was a goner when I couldn't get it to drink water or eat anything. I got an eye dropper but couldn't figure out how to pry it's beak open without hurting it. It also didn't want a worm, or a maple seed.

So I made it a nest so at least it can die comfortably instead of on the gravel in direct sunlight where I found it.

lower any flags you have at half staff.

give it a proper burial, maybe a Viking funeral and set it out on a raft and torch it..???

or set it out for the flies to lay eggs on it and the maggots eat it..????

I used my 3" auger in the drill to bury it two feet deep next to my dog Raven.

Sarah shoved some dead grass down in the hole before I put the bird in, then more grass clippings before filling it in.
 
On the holiday weekends, the roads are very quiet early in the morning, so I cruise the Eldorado over to the Space Center. I can ride in there and about the only other car you see is a cop. Anyway, I'm approaching the guard shack with my badge ready and I see long blonde hair come out of the shack and I'm thinking, I wonder if I can take her for a ride in the 'vert. She has this big bright smile and when she reaches to do the 'hands on' badge check, I see it. Her whole right arm and hand is a sleeve of ink. I just said good morning and motored on. Seeing that is sooo depressing.

Save the tats for the bikers and the prison bitches.

It used to be that only two types of people got tattoos.

Military men and bikers. And the military guys only got tats related to their service, like a ship anchor or the marine corps logo.

I don't really know how tattoos became a symbol of white trash. And tattoos on a woman were the mark of a slut. It's something my grandparents' generation must've decided. The term "Tramp stamp" is still in common usage.

But in the last decade or so it seems as if EVERYONE is supposed to get ink of some kind. It's no longer just white trash, it's middle class goody two shoes teenage girls who focus on their grades and aren't gutter sluts by any means.

:dunno:

I no longer think a chick is a trashy slut if she has ink, but I still don't like to see it.

I never claimed them to be trashy sluts. I just don't like the ink to ruin the landscape of smooth, unadulterated skin. Nothing but a personal preference.
