I love the tree outside my window. Even leafless, covered in the rags left by last spring's overabundance of tent caterpillars, it is soothing to look upon.

Nice article! I knew that! I love staring into my back yard in the summer. Now, though, I can see the neighbors' fences hemming me in, and it really brings me down. I wish I were looking at an entire snow-covered forest.

All righty! I'm ready to head to my remote cabin in the wilds of Wyoming! :)

You were ready to do that anyway. :-)

At the first sign of apocalypse, I'm headed west. In fact, I'm looking at the Wyoming real estate listings now. Ooh, cheap!

The first sign of apocalypse was when certain primates developed self-consciousness. It's all been downhill from there.

I'm conscious of this headache, but not much else. Does that absolve me from sharing the blame?
