Enjoy the latest "Old Type Writer" column
Submission to "ALFRED HITCHCOCK PRESENTS…." (With an Homage to Cinematic Hitch!) - you can read the column in its entirety at this link:
http://talkofthetownwc.com/oldtypewri... In tribute to post-holiday survival and inspired by a rediscovery of the classic TV series Alfred Hitchcock Presents, the column details in comic fashion the shenanigans of one Squiggy Squirrel in the late 1980s and the familial turmoil that his hijinks prompted. Enjoy!
(And any time you see a phrase in red font in the column, click for a videographic surprise!)
Excerpt: "Sleet causes her automobile to skid now and then. She notices a plump, ginger-colored squirrel very still as it reclines on its pudgy side, its fluffy plume of a tail slowly swishing in the swirls of wind sweeping across the roadway. She swerves to avoid the tiny appealing rodent no doubt previously scampering friskily from bare, stark tree trunk to tree trunk and tight-rope walking among multiple limbs." Read the rest at

...And how about that Sarah Palin?
Palin is so beholden to the good ole boys and I think those lecherous fellas encourage her outbursts...probably even write them? Cuz they basically are not only NRA sportsy country club hunters but they are also courtin' redneck votes if rednecks ever manage to register...
She is a creation of some sort...I think they pay her to dream up some other new ways to abuse animals....AND liberals! I detest her at this point. Some clowns actually follow her so-called lead...hopefully she stumbles really badly one of these photo op days!
Sarah Pariah! She reminds me of a sorority pledge who never got to go active! Nor should have!
