This summer Uncle Swervie, next summer Uncle Horsie, the summer after that, Uncle Ratty. On second thought, maybe 2 summers will do the trick. By then they should be promising to be really good ....forever!


I am reminded of the 'coming of age' rituals used by some of the Southwestern US Indian tribes, where they would give the boys a handful of peyote buttons, and send them off into the desert for a week or so, so that they could 'find themselves.'

Hmmm...

How much did the tribe charge to adopt you when you begged?

Never quite made it back to the teepees did you?
