Evening report

(1) Driving into my driveway, I startled a skunk who was eating the corn that I leave out for the squirrels. The startle-age was not sufficient for the beast to spray me. Instead, it glared sullen-like and waddled away.

(2) While I approached my house, a mid-sized mammal sulked off the porch and around the back. It may be living in the exposed crawl space. It was, how to say so as not to spook my spouse: A bit big to be any of the cats…and it seemed to have a long and hairless tail.

(3) Awesomely, a New Zealand Storm Petrel flew into the boat of one of the few people in the world who would immediately recognize that it has supposedly been extinct for over 100 years.

(4) France is still on fire. It’s been on fire for 12 days. Germany wasn’t even there this time, man!

(5) The US still has torture camps, and a president who refuses to take a stand against torture.

(6) Everyone needs to go read this wikipedia entry on Cargo Cults.
