Just Riding the Dolphin

Bullets
For some strange reason the ammo has been flying off the shelves at the local Walmart; no .45 ACP, little if any 30-06, .308, .223, no 9mm and stranger still, a big lack of .22LR. Maybe the latter's not so odd - .22's a sensible round to stock up on, lots of bang for the buck, as it were. I felt myself lucky to snag one of the few remaining 'value packs' in time for tomorrow's target practice.

Surely it's not the case that people are worried and feel the need to get prepared? Maybe they are, but in the meanwhile, the rival diocese of Fort Worth is busy 'waging reconciliation', when they're not suing Bishop Iker and trad Anglicans. 

Ohl Granola
TEC Bishop Ohl has organised a 'reconciliation liturgy' and asked people to bring things to it, such as "a piece of art – a drawing, a painting, a weaving, a sculpture, a piece of ceramic..."

I think I'll skip that particular drum circle.

Scary

Undead
I was going to post a short bucolic piece on the therapeutic pleasures of horse riding but got badly hijacked by Drudge and the ongoing scary saga of the Middle East. Will it all result in a new dawn of peace, love and freedom, like a big Woodstock in the sand? 

Freeloading Hippies
 Or will it be a disaster of epic, apocalyptic proportions?

Age of Aquarius
I'd say the vote was out. 

Lord have mercy.
