    Nothing like a little good ol' childhood trauma...

    You know NightHawk, I put that in to edit over another stupid comment I made. Oh gosh, I had a laugh over posting that first comment. I laughed so hard that I cried. Look at the post right after mine to get an idea. I took it out just a little bit later because I didn't want to have people spewing drinks all over their computers. Oh, and BTW, the mind is a terrible thing, let us all waste it.
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

    Glasgow is getting a lot of heavy to gale force winds lately.
    I wear medium to heavy kilts, have something heavy in my sporran, (Like a nice 6 oz flask of Whisky)
    And when the wind gets me anyway, I casually and calmly smooth the kilt down and keep going.

    In the words of me Grandpa Leddy- of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the least.

    Haven't been able to drink a drop sense the vision quest back in aught three. Stopped smoking too... it was a big'un. Before that I liked a shot of scotch in a glass of cold water in the evening or a couple of glasses of really dry cabernet.

    Mine wanders and has many wild and wacky detours.

    And don't follow in my footsteps! I think I stepped in something...

    And that brings up the question- is there actually a path to follow? If so, I think it leads to my bed. I need to hit the sack. Talk to you later, my newest online friend!
