Seriously.  Acorns, hickory nuts….even a persimmon hit me in the head yesterday while I was cleaning up hurricane debris.  Gravity is stupid.

But the squirrels like it…

Ringo

I’ve told this story to some of you privately, but I still think it’s funny.  So Imma tell it again here publicly.

My pair of ducks are no longer with us.  This is them.  Or….WAS them…

Those ducks loved me.  Mostly because I fed them twice daily.  Unfortunately, the male was small and sickly from the jump.  It’s actually kind of surprising he lived as long as he did.

A few weeks ago, I found him dead, near the water’s edge, with the female there by his side grieving.  Assuming ducks can actually grieve.  I honestly don’t know if they can, but she followed me as I removed the male’s body and disposed of it.  And then she stuck close to the house for several days, quacking her little ass off at me.

I knew his demise meant she’d also soon go away to find a new mate, which apparently she now has.  I haven’t seen her now for a few weeks.

But while I raised them, and while I was feeding them regularly, the local squirrel population got wise to the feeding schedule, and began also showing up regularly to get their share.  One of those squirrels has a tail which has a very distinct ringed pattern.  So, of course I named him “Ringo”.

Well, since the ducks went bye bye, I’ve still been getting the sad “we’re hungry” eyes from all of the squirrels, so I’ve continued to feed them.  Yes, I’m a sucker.

Anywhoooooo…..

Ringo disappeared for a couple of weeks recently.  And I more or less thought he was goner as well.  But he showed back up a few days ago with a giant (and almost fully healed) scar across his back.  I don’t know the particulars of the incident which caused this wound, of course.  But he’s a tough little shit, apparently.

And his name is now Ringo Scarr.

Oh come on!!!!!!  It’s funny, dammit!!!!!!!

Ah, to be sixteen again, huh?

Also, is Ringo Starr a pedophile or what?????????
