BARREL OF MONKEYS: "GENESIS" in Reverse


I consider myself a Democrat. Been called a Socialist. Definitely a bleeding heart liberal.


As a child from a traditional southern family, playing Barrel of Monkeys on the floor, church every Sunday, doing well in public school, learning a trade; in every sense privileged .........


Comfortable in middle age, an avid news reader, on learning the tragic story of a full grown chimpanzee destroying the face of a woman who offered a toy, only trying to help it's owner coax her surrogate child back into his cage......


Today being confrontational, ribald, offensive, restless, rebellious.......


How did I get here from there?

Shark in Palm Beach Shores killed for trophy




Shark in Palm Beach Shores killed for trophy: "A Pennsylvania couple on Monday landed the trophy they'd come to Florida for: a nine-foot scalloped hammerhead shark. But not everyone was filled with the same sense of accomplishment.

"What would compel someone to kill this beautiful and endangered animal for absolutely no good reason?"


The explanation came from Capt. John Krohn of Boomerang Charters, who's run a 44-foot sport-fishing boat since 1980. "It was a good customer of mine. His wife wanted something for the wall.""
