I'm looking forward to making a fire with seasoned hickory, and burning some dead animal, a T-bone that's close to porterhouse. My wife gets the tenderloin, and I get the rest. While the texture of the tenderloin is luscious, I like the flavor of the strip better than any other muscle from the dead cow.

My house was on the ocean with a sandy beach at the bottom of the
garden - never going to be a problem selling, in the end, two doctors
from Calgary bought it, so excited to live by the sea.

I also eat dead animals. Poor Fruce usually shits his drawers, and
****es his pants but life goes on. Vegetarians usually get over it
quickly.

They sold and moved back west after a couple of years. The couple who
bought from them still live there but they have let the house
deteriorate, 5 lovely tall cedars that sheilded the house from view of
the street have somehow died. They have added a ghastly garage, I
felt rather sad when I last went to my ex. neighbours and saw it.
