Wry On The Rocks

A Duxbury resident wrote a letter to our local paper today complaining that she had found a dead squirrel that had been choked to death with a plastic twist tie.  She declaimed the murder and called for the culprit to reveal him/herself.  I don’t particularly care for squirrels, but I share her concern for people who would murder any animal in such a cruel way.  But, here’s my question.  How the hell did someone chase down a squirrel in order to choke it to death?  I’ve got 3 dogs that can do the 100 in 5 seconds and they can’t catch a squirrel!  Is there really someone in Duxbury who is quick enough to run down a squirrel?  Who just happens to carry a supply of plastic twist ties?  My admiration and awe to such a person!

Here’s a warning to all Yuengling & Son beer drinkers…it can seriously affect your ability to see clearly.  Not in the usual sense.  Pat Noone, an executive at Yuengling brewery was just named New England Patriot fan of the year after 30 years of driving 7 to 10 hours from his Pennsylvannia home to every Patriot home game.  Not enough you say?  Right.  How about the fact that he built a replica of the Patriots locker room complete with a urinal in his home.  Still not enough?  How about a 9 foot wooden bear painted as #52, Ted Johnson, in his front yard?  Or the Pats logo insribed in his wedding ring?  Still wouldn’t give him the award?  OK, how about he told his then wife-to-be that she would always be #2 in his eyes to the Patriots.  Enough?  And the Patriots actually encourage this sort of behavior?
