  1. While riding around a pond this a.m., I had a close encounter with a
    feathered fowl. There were some kids walking ahead and I guess he got
    distracted and whanged right into my front wheel. No one was hurt in
    the mishap, but the duck lost a few feathers to my wheel. He shook his
    head and then went on his way.

    Are the squirrels calling in for air support?

    If so, the heavy air support (geese) must have been engaged elsewhere.

    You may be right. I thought he looked a little familiar.

    Gamera?

    Should I be watching out for Rodan and Gojira?

    I don't know that it was a mutated turtle, but here is wasteland Florida
    anything is possible. I guess I should be looking out for other mutated
    creatures too!

    You're lucky you didn't quack up.

    I rode the same route this a.m. I thought I saw the same duck, but he
    was sitting on the edge of the pond looking at me and didn't try a
    repeat performance. My eyes might have deceived me, but it looked like
    he was wearing a hard hat.
