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.

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.

Remember kids, just say "No" to Japanese theatre.

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.
