Note that I live in Hawaii and I am not a hiker (though many Hawaii residents are absolutely devout hikers) - and while centipedes are an unfortunate fact of life, an eight incher would freak me the hell out. Your pig-man is interesting. There's a whole legend around a pig-man, but he has like eight eyes and all sorts of supernatural qualities. Yep, I think you are just about right in your "steam" of consciousness. heh.MakingSpacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09512337949478137031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6436529532164956333.post-20418128053125330722012-07-24T11:18:27.752-06:002012-07-24T11:18:27.752-06:00Crack You Whip: You should go!
