So this is the book I am currently reading. A little strange that I haven’t read it already? Minus the mutated thumbs, I practically was Sissy Hankshaw as a child! And now more then ever I am seriously considering moving to Eastern Montana and starting a Goat Ranch. Coincidence? I think not.

Hither and Yon
A lot of things happened during my childhood which led me to believe I was going to live an extraordinary life. You can imagine my disappointment when I realized that this hadn’t yet occurred. So instead of letting the monotonous or mundane consume me completley, I did what any self-respecting, post-modern alchemist trapped in such trying times would do; I summoned for the winds of change.
The Publishers Clearinghouse Sweepstakes did not ring my front doorbell and present me with an oversized check. I did not find the cure for cancer, nor the missing link in mans evolutionary chain. I could not, if prompted, spout off the Ten Commandments, or recite the Seven Wonders of the World, let alone discover an Eighth. I had simply sent an email. To the same recipient I had tried sending an email to nearly once a year, for ten years. What happened next is the part I could have never seen coming; a response.
