On the Eight Day,
the Great Oak created essence of all that is good in the universe. And the Great Oak said, “I am done.  For nothing I could dream beyond this will ever compare to that which I have created on this day.”  Then the Great Oak lowered it’s branch and blessed this mortal realm with its greatest creation…   BACON! And it was good.

Happy New Years!!
May your acorns be plenty, My your den always be warm, and may you be half way up your tree Before the dog even thinks you’ve been in its yard. Stolen in Irish Toast: May your glass be ever full, May the roof over your head be always strong, And may you be in heaven Half an hour before the devil knows you’re dead. So say’th Messiah Squirrel so crack’th the acorn

Change is Good
Those who know me know I don’t think highly of organized Religion or Charity.  Far to much goes in and far to little comes back out.  However I do believe in these guys — Mercy Corps.  Drop by the site and take a peek.  Be the change.

Not Faded yet
(warning - pure thought, spelling and grammar optional) While it may seem as if the Great Oak has taken me I am still here.  Problem is everyone wants my time. Work, yard, garage, family, Warcraft, GTA IV and now D&D.  Yes that age old time waster has returned to my life.  My daughters have begged me to play and I have finally conceded. Being a veteran of the 2nd edition having played the 80’s...

The PUN-ishment of Messiah Squirrel is swift.

Let only those deserving of it read on: Farmer Giles is so interested in conserving energy, he built a pig-powered car. He has to get rid of it, though. Every time he turns a corner, the tires squeal So sayth Messiah Squirrel, so cracks the Acorn

A Parable
Why do ducks have webbed feet? To stamp out fires. Why do elephants have flat feet? To stamp out burning ducks. There’s a moral here.  Not sure what it is.  I’ll just do what the Jebus did and leave it up to the interpretation of the religious masses.  That shouldn’t cause any problems. So sayth Messiah Squirrel, so cracks the Acorn.
