I have recently discovered that if I ask for something, I will receive it.

Really.

I told the wife one day that I wanted to see a covered bridge.

Last week, on a mini-vacation, she showed me one.

See? My wishes come to fruition. Fortunately, I use them wisely and don't waste them. I save them for truly useful things, like vacation.

ah, vacation. I like vacation. I can leave home, do things I don't normally do, see things I might not otherwise see. Vacation means different food, different sheets, different gas stations. It's an adventure. Vacation is a time where I can admire graffitti on a covered bridge.

I can eat leaves.

I can stand and watch the trees

But I cannot throw rocks, for some reason.

Ah, well. West Virginia. Wild and Wonderful.

A smart man uses his wishes wisely. Especially around a woman in a cape :D

I certainly hope my wish for a covered bridge wasn't a wasted one. The woman in the cape does not reveal to me how many wishes I have. The number probably changes on a daily basis.

Perhaps you should read more signs than just that last one.

Or stop reading all signs. The trip definitely took a turn for the worse when I actually read that last sign. There was another sign on a mountain overlook that warned me not to throw anying over the edge. I read that one too...probably a good thing, otherwise my shoes would have ended up in the river several hundred feet below.

Perhaps you should throw no-rocks instead.

Are No-rocks the rocks used in the traditional Japanese No theater? Little rocks wearing masks and singing monotonously? Yeah, if I see any of those, I'll be certain to throw them in the river next time.

One wonders if there is an inscrutable Zen koan about the sound of throwing No-rocks. Then again, knowing Japanese theatre, it's probably the clash of little cymbals accompanied by those little drums that make that funny bwiooowmbwiooowmbwiooowm noise.

hmmm...

Well, I can never hear enough warnings about my cloaked wife. I gotta stay on my toes around her.
