Open Season
By lmhall | November 7, 2007

Crispy and clear, I ran out the door barefoot this morning around 5 to try to spot the space shuttle reentering the earth’s atmosphere, but couldn’t locate. I was blinded by that northern star. That rock is hot!

It’s supposed to pass directly over the Ozarks again at 11:15-ish AM, hopefully I’ll hear the “double sonic boom”.
In the news: Surgery performed on the Indian baby born with four arms and legs was successful. Villagers consider her a modern day Hindu Goddess.
The girl, Lakshmi, is named after the four-armed Hindu goddess of wealth, “Everybody considers her a goddess at our village,” said her father.
Others sought to make money from Lakshmi. Her parents kept her in hiding after a circus apparently tried to buy the girl, they said.
In the Ozarks, we’re gearing up for Deer Season. 
It’s time to thin the herd. A deer crashed through the front door of a local business here. Imagine starting the day with the sound of breaking glass and a wild animal in the lobby. Really don’t want to start my day trying to shoo a bloody crazed doe out dee doe.
Changing of the Seasons: On location at undercover assignment I noticed a little tension regarding lobby decorations. Image is everything. Manager was resisting the urge to tear down the beautiful fall vignettes created and bring in Christmas. I watched the dynamics unfold until Manager was persuaded to ditch the withered mums, relax and enjoy the fall color.
I’m preparing a memo to suggest incorporating taxidermied deer into the decor, so we can dress them up at Christmas! Maybe Bass Pro will donate a deer family. We’ll let you know how that great idea turns out.

Today’s tip: Make sure it’s a deer you’re shooting at.
