There are many things I miss about the rural lifestyle I had growing up. Bucking hay bales is not among them.

You've got a beautiful spot, ol' Poke; much better than the red brick wall I see out my window.

You have a screen on your "office" window? where's the outhouse?

No outhouse. Here's a picture of the bathroom which you can see is right across the hall from my office. That's a sign of status in my culture. The closer to the toilet the higher up you are. I'd actually have to office in the bathroom to be any higher up the chain.

You probably drive a car that uses leaded gasoline, don't you?

That depends on what you mean by run. If it's to maintain good health, then yes. But if it's running for your life from wolves, well, that's never good.
