Have you ever found yourself saying, “That dude’s hair isn’t just messy, it’s uncombable?” Well that’s very insensitive of you. He might be a victim of the little known Uncombable Hair Syndrome. Guys like that must hate people like me… my hair is perfectly combable, but I haven’t combed it in 15 years.

Say… you know what’s interesting? Unusual methods of execution. I found this one a few years ago and then forgot about it. It came to mind after reading a particularly saccharine Mary Worth in the funny pages. I just can’t understand why newspapers are wasting money on this garbage. 80% of the comic strips at best don’t make me laugh, and at worst fill me with rage.

Our family was coming home from running an errand when we noticed a red-tailed hawk sitting in the grass near the driveway. I dropped everything and ran for the camera. When I got a little closer I could see that he was standing on a dead rabbit that had been in the road earlier. I snapped a couple of shots before he got spooked and tried to fly off with the rabbit. It was too heavy and he dropped it soon after taking off. I like this picture. You can see guts hanging out of the bottom of the rabbit. What’s up, Doc?
