An Often Time

2024.07.29

Good morning that wonderful way.

Abe's at it again.

Eating.

Being happy.

Ready to go monitor the yard.

Birds and squirrels perhaps a rabbit.

Or even... chipmunk!

Saw a mole a few weeks back burrow up, shimmied (did you know moles shimmy?) a foot then down another hole.

They eat grubs, not your flowers and veggies.

They till the soil.

They're helpful.

A lot of people furrow them out, flush them out, or even worse, poison them.

It's the unsightly mounds they make.

Only if there's a large family though.

Otherwise, a clop of dirt here and there is good for whatever is growing.

Rabbits, on the other hand, those cute little oh-it's-so-cutes, hopping long eared taunters from Hopstown, will steal you hungry before you can say Easter Sunday.

Growing things.

That circle of life myth my generation grew up with.

It was the right time, historically, for it to become popular.

We need it now for a frame of reference if we're going to properly take care of our house.

We ought to tell NASA to slow down and help take care of this one first.

We could use some of our best minds on the problems at hand.

The walls are caving in, a new planet won't do us any good.

We'll destroy that one, too.

Unless we get enlightened.

It's not all tree hugging nonsense.

There's nothing more important in our physical lives then the Ocean's creep ashore.

It's the number one threat to National Security.

Mother Nature's way, and not greedy old men with apathetic citizens, is the only true threat of war.

And she's drawn a line in the sand.

The walls are falling down in our house, and we're worried about the grocery bill for next month, or getting the kids to soccer practice, or the upward mobility of our careers.

Humanity is often times a group of idiots.

In regard to Mother Nature, we're at an 'often time'.

The first place to start is the tributaries.

Tributaries are a doomsday clock.

The rivers don't go red with blood, they get salty.

Unless we act.

It can be a good time.

A provider of plenty of jobs.

A great boost for morale and a sense of National Pride.

Quite frankly, if we can't get together to take care of our house in a friendly uplifting manner, we're not worth the place.

If we're not going to enjoy life, be thankful for life, we don't deserve it.

Let's deserve it, get people good jobs, and clean up our house.

Together.
