I’m Tuckered Out

See the source image

Viewership is down today, but nothing much I could do about it. I had a special assignment for Chalcedon: write a 2,000-word article on the Bell Mountain books, how I came to write them, what I’ve learned in doing it, and so on. That’s a lot of words to write about yourself! Anyway, it’s done, and will appear in The Chalcedon Report by and by.

The iguana in this picture looks astoundingly like mine, except more of his spines are worn away. He insisted on sleeping on a perch he had when he was a fifth of his current size, and threw a sulk when I replaced it with a bigger one. I had to put the old perch back. Then he’d sleep on the new one, with his tail draped over the old.

  1. I would never have guessed that an Iguana would be so “human” with attitude. Learn something new every day.

  2. A couple of songs you might consider: He’s Still God, and Lord Take All that I Have, both Carroll Roberson.

    Animals obviously share many traits with humans. This is actually one of the more anthropomorphic ones I’ve ever heard of, but I have no trouble believing it to be true.

    I once had a cat that would occasionally demand attention by giving a swat at my most cherished possession, a lovely guitar I had owned for years. It was deliberate and planned. He knew what would get my attention and, by gum, that’s what he would do.

    Have a good rest Lee. You’ve earned it.
