Death From Above
October 17
OK, I found something scary about living here in the Retirement Capitol of America. The oak trees. Well, more the acorns than the trees. You see, these suckers are huge and heavy.
Not only are they huge and heavy, but they come hurtling down at breakneck speed (I swear I’ve heard a sonic boom or two) due to the trees being ginormous. The wind throws these miniature cannonballs onto our porch where they bounce and careen off the rails and table/chairs out there, throwing them into the glass door and scaring the living bejeezus out of Elaine and I.
I wonder how many squirrels and birds have met a nutty death this year?
I think I shocked my nipple while getting out of my car today. Or maybe it was a killer acorn cannon ball aimed at my chest. Either way, it hurt.
There’s my $.02

Nipple zapping and nutty death! Woo! Sounds like fun to me! Actually, it sounds better than nut zapping and nipple death…
