Well, I’m not bummed out that we’re all still here. I’m disappointed, however, that I no longer get to end my sentences with “…of the Apocalypse.” Last night, for example, as a storm rolled into Coshocton and high winds were threatening this little shanty we’re living in, I got to say “Here it is, the … More Squirrel Tracks of the Apocalypse
