Dry Powder 



Compromised for opinion, you 
have asked the question again. 
The pistol is above the mantel: 
primed and loaded, fully cocked, 
ready to fire. Only problem is, 
where to point the damn thing. 

I tried using it a few years ago. 
I wrote "Shirley" on the side 
of my head; you know the place, 
behind and a little above the right 
eye when the head is viewed in 
profile. Thought it would give 

incentive. I didn't really hate 
myself, just adorable child stars. 
Fortunately, the powder was 
damp. I stay away from loaded 
pistols now, but have enough 
respect to give you dry answers.
