Not like when Der Bingle was in Guam

LZP’s son Joe is stationed in Guam, the same place Der Bingle was many moons ago (about the time the last Japanese soldier walked out of the jungle) and it is a bit more developed. I don’t think Uncle Bingle went fishing, but don’t feel too sorry for him – back then it was midnight outdoor movies, beaches, beaches, beaches, no brown snakes and riding around in jeeps with the floor boards rusted out. One crew would sell it the vehicle to the next.

As you look at this picture of Joe and his fish and the Pacific harbor, think of his wife who spent the winter while he was gone in . . . North Dakota.

Dog with arrow in head stumbles to house for help

That was how my Internet news day began – with that headline and with a picture of the dog with the arrow sticking out of his head. I will have that image in my mind throughout my day. I am not posting the picture here because I JUST CAN’T BEAR IT. I am thinking that I may have to bang my head against the wall to stop me from thinking about it – but then, that could stop me thinking altogether, which some people might consider to be not a bad thing.
