It's a beautiful and chilly morning today. My spouse and I went for a 2 mile walk this morning and one of the priceless sights of being married is seeing him stop on the track to "save" the earthworms creeping along the track lest they be stepped on. "They have to mate," he said.

On a day like today how can anyone spend such wasteful time and energy looking to find offense? Our culture is rife with people just looking to be offended. Life's too short and precious for that crap. Enjoy life and instead of looking for offense, look for peace.

Ridiculous item of the day: It could have been a scene right out of an action movie. A man in Miami, fed up with his troublesome car, took matters into his own hands and put it out of its misery. The man "killed" his 1994 Chrysler LeBaron by firing five rounds of his semi-automatic pistol into the Chrysler's hood. He was arrested on a weapons charge but released the next day. He reportedly said, "I think every guy in the universe has wanted to do it. It was worth every damn minute in that jail." No word on how he'll get around now that his wheels are in the ground.

Enjoy your day,
