Neighbours are complaining that they are losing too many goats to what has been reported to be some sort of new breed cayote who has a rather bushy beard and a small black beanie hat on his bald head. The fire department has informed me that I can no longer burn goats on my back forty due to the drought conditions which have led to a severe risk of forest fire. Fortunately I am a most Reformed dude whose Texas family is slightly left of the Southern Baptists so I can probably safely refrain from further goat burning even if I continue to sin in Sin City. Remember my well-rippled friend that Yom Kippur doth cometh once each and every year. Not nearly as good as a good confession every day but at least we do get forgiven every once in a while.

Shalom,

Doc
