Not Mayberry

Can a shy, retiring teacher from the big city find true happiness in the small town of Wilkesboro NC, which even the locals call "Moonshine Capital of the World."

Same thing. Just testing.


Just testing and fooling ...
... around with my new printer, trying to make Mr Miggs a birthday present.

Our local politicians ....

... are what gives Wilkes Co (and most of the rural south) a bad name.

One of our country commissioners told another one that "only deadbeats use the library."

Yep. Once you have a subscription of "Guns and Ammo" and your copy of Going Rogue, what else do you need?

Needless to say, he's a Republican, and of course, a fine upstanding Christian.

I think I am going to teach young Mr Miggs how to say "you ignorant peckerwood." I am sure his Mother will thank me.

About that sleep problem ...

... this one. Remember?

Oh. Well, I didn't really think so.

BUT! It got worse. A lot worse. I was sleeping 8 hours a night, getting up sleepy, taking two hour naps, going to bed sleepy, etc.

So ... next week, off to the sleep doctor. Or rather his nurse practicioner. First, the interview. Then, the sleep test. Then ... well, maybe nothing. Hard to say. But now that I am free for the summer, and sleepy for a few hours every afternoon is delicious, I am going to try to get to the bottom of this.

When Kittens go bad....

... they hang around on sofa corners smoking cigarettes.

And they get REALLY annoyed if you try to take their smokes.
