For the last couple of days I've stepped from my front door into warmth filled with birdsong and the scent of salt marsh. As I walk towards my truck squirrel cut pine cones litter our walkway and the cicadas sing at full roar - a gentle entry into an otherwise long hot day.
Elsewhere in Florida another storm is forecast. Many believe the Zimmerman case will slam shut and riots will place the period to his fifteen minutes of fame.
I doubt it.
Then again human nature is almost impossible to predict. There is the possibility critters will jump and howl and show their collective asses. Some are sure to bust a window or two. It's the truly black souled moon fleas one must always keep in mind.
As I've said, I doubt the storm predictions. Still, I've taken a nice piece of 550 cord and made it ready to accept trophy ears. The line, once filled, should look nice against the background of my black shirt.
We're in for a stormy day, if the forecast is correct.
Should be fun.
Stephen
I think most moon fleas won't pick a fight if there is a high probability of getting return fire.
ReplyDeleteIndeed. They're brave when gathered in a pack, but even then when they notice a few well armed 'good 'ole boys' they scatter like quail.
DeleteI cleaned my SKS just in case
ReplyDeleteWise move.
DeleteToo bad there won't be riots. After the show trial and judicial bias someone down that way should be rioting and dragging that judge out as well.
ReplyDeleteIf Zimmerman goes to prison so goes every law abiding citizen's right to self defense.
Your last sentence said it all. Thanks, my friend.
DeleteStay safe!
ReplyDeleteI shall try. Thanks, my friend.
DeleteStay safe and dry Stephen! Have a great weekend :)
ReplyDeleteWill do dear lady/...and thanks. Enjoyed your post this morning.
DeleteI have family that have routes in some of the neighborhoods I would be concerned driving through on a normal day, much less when the verdict is read. I know they are getting through those areas as quick as possible, with an eye on the news for early next week. If Al Sharpton decides to hijack the media again this time, there's no telling the outcome.
ReplyDeleteI've told my wife I will drive to her...she'd panic. Thanks, Izzy.
DeleteIF there's a response to a not-guilty verdict for Zimmerman here, I'm prepared to defend myself - but I don't think the folks here will be that concerned about it.
ReplyDeleteI sincerely doubt you'll have problems...if so, call. Thanks, my good friend.
DeleteFunny, isn't it, that there's no preparation for a riot if Zimmerman IS convicted, despite a fair number of folks thinking he should walk. I wonder why that is? Yeah, I know. I'm raaaaaaacist! Well, not really. Just tired of the race baiters and their followers making Reconstruction era predictions come true.
ReplyDeleteGood point. I bet we'll have little fanfare. Thanks, my friend.
