Firing A Shotgun at the Stream Might Be Fun, Though

Apparently, a "Field & Stream" magazine bearing my name was delivered to my parents' house in Florida today. This is a magazine about hunting and fishing, two topics that rank among the least interesting I can imagine. Only slightly less interesting is the weather in some place I am not, unless we're talking natural disasters. Baseball is even more uninteresting than unremarkable weather. Something that does interest me is correcting people who use the word "disinterested" when they mean "uninterested." That bothers me.

"Field & Stream" bores me so much that I linked to its Web site above without even bothering to look at it. "Field & Stream" bores me so much that when I get insomnia, I close my eyes and imagine the words "Field & Stream" jumping over a stream and into a field over and over again to lull myself to sleep. "Field & Stream" bores me so much that I can't even write another sentence about it.

I may have you beat for strange mail. I got a letter from the Navy today congratulating me on graduating from law school and inviting me to join JAG.

Lovely day here, high about 60, low around 39 tonight. Perfect weather for bagging a deer.

If Sarah Palin had been elected we might all have received a complimentary subscription. I always wanted to learn how to field dress a moose.
