Litterbirds
Consequences of living in a low-crime, high-paranoia area, like Japan: lack of crime, high rates of discrimination against potential criminals (foreigners), and astronomical fines for small offenses.

Consequences of living in an eco-friendly, low-crime, obsessively-PC place like Seattle: high risk of fines for jaywalking, overpraise for tattletaling (call 764-HERO to snitch on carpool lane violators), and incomprehensible statewide green-campaigns. 'Litter and it will hurt?' What does that even mean?

My little Robin is home for just a moment from her Public Health/ UMichigan/ Haiti adventures, and we found an avian companion! Just bop bop bop along the Bothell-Everett Highway until you pass a big chicken (and egg).

Lately I just spend my days dusted in either coffee grounds or finger paint, and sometimes go looking for ducks and papier-mache birds. And sometimes I seek out faux-turkey for holiday meals. What to do when I'm feeling particularly feisty? I throw rubbish out the window while driving alone in the carpool lane.

So wrong it's right. And then wrong. And then wrong again... welcome to the inaka.

About Me: “No man, not even a doctor, ever gives any other definition of what a nurse should be than this - 'devoted and obedient'. This definition would do just as well for a porter. It might even do for a horse. It would not do for a policeman.” (Florence Nightingale)
