HALF BAKED by RICK ELLIS

I’m an online news junkie. My hunger for hard news invariably leads to getting distracted by sen-sational headlines in the sidebars that every news site has. Last week I couldn’t resist clicking on the headline, “Raccoons Attack Wash-ington State Woman”. This woman was jogging next to a park in a residential neighborhood when her dog started chasing a momma rac-coon and her babies. A gang of fi ve adult raccoons came rushing out of the bushes and attacked the woman with a vengeance, knocking her to the ground and mauling her. With the help of her dog, she managed to get away but not after sustain-ing over 100 wounds, 18 of which were punctures. Here’s my favorite part: a neighbor witnessed the at-tack and came to her aid by “yelling for help”. Seems to me that would be pretty ineffective but I guess it’s better than a neighbor coming to her aid with a scatter gun.
Stories like this constantly re-mind me that—just when you start thinking you have things under con-trol—there’s always one thing more to worry about. Attacks on humans by bears or mountain lions or even elk are rare but not unheard of. Most of the time it’s because the human is doing something stupid like eat-ing Taco Bell in their tent or trying to feed Skittles to a bull elk during the fall rutting season. But a docu-mented case of raccoons attacking humans has got me asking a lot of questions. Now and then, when someone forgets to put the lids on the trash cans, I’m awakened to the sounds of our resident family of rac-coons quarrelling over some juicy morsel of garbage. They’re right be-low my bedroom window so I usu-ally grab a hiking boot and whip it right between the glowing eyes of the fattest perpetrator. Well, this lat-est news fl ash has got me thinking I’d better watch my step. On Wiki-pedia.org I read that the largest wild raccoon ever recorded weighed 63 pounds! A few more rotten dough-nuts and a raccoon that big could compete for a spot on the Olympic boxing team in the Light Flyweight

division. Maybe one of these days they’ll fi gure out how to throw that boot right back at me. Worse yet, maybe they’ll set up an ambush when I venture out in the dark to get more fi rewood or retrieve my phone from the Jeep. That fat one—my favorite target for the boot—might scurry out from under the picnic table and trip me just right so that I fall headfi rst into an open trash can. Then his buddies will slap the lid on and fasten it shut with bungee cords. They’ll gather round, beat the can with slabs of fi rewood and then roll me down the driveway at the end of which I’ll smash into the “Welcome to the Leins” sign post.
Which other seemingly harmless critters of the forest are plotting our demise? Magpies will congregate outside the house and screech inces-santly at my cats because they are sitting in the window. The cats are staring at the magpies wondering why they’ve gathered and what all the screeching is about—it’s a vi-cious circle. I’ll admit, I occasion-ally plunk a magpie or two with a pellet gun just to shut them up. Yesterday, I saw the same magpies run off a fox that was taunting my dogs just outside the perimeter of their invisible fence. Did Hitchcock foretell the future when he fi lmed The Birds? I’m nervous now when I walk up the driveway to get the mail. Do those magpies remem-ber that I used soft rubber pellets? Come to think of it, there’s a reason someone coined the expression, ‘sly as a fox’. If he’s smart enough to de-termine where the perimeter of the fence is how long until he fi gures out that the locks on one the living room windows don’t work. Next time I go fl y fi shing I’ll be wonder-ing if rainbow trout can grow teeth like a piranha. Are bunny rabbits herbivores or omnivores? Can gar-ter snakes climb steps?
My daughter just came to me and told me there’s a squirrel or something skittering in the ceiling above the master bathroom. Those critters can cause a lot of damage. The only access is a trap door in the hallway. I have to set up the ladder, push the door open, and stick my head up into the attic to see what’s going on. Pray for me.

If you stay married long enough and make it your goal, you can learn helpful information about your spouse. Th is information can come in very handy in cultivating a healthy re-lationship.
Mine is such a goal. Simply put, the tax advantages of marriage are not at-tractive enough to share space with someone whose company I do not en-joy. I want to do it right.
One important thing that has taken me over a decade to learn about my wife is that she likes things cute and girlie. Please understand that she is not one of those middle-aged women in a state of arrested development, a celebrity-worshipping Britney Spears wanna-be, stuff ed a w k -wardly in-side a pink jumpsuit and high heels with a provocative message printed upon the rear of her pants.
Now, my wife enjoys classic femi-ninity. She enjoys Jane Austen, proper etiquette and ethnic fare. Although she’s been known to put the hurt on a bag of Mrs. Dunster’s donuts, she’s ac-tually deeply driven by more respect-able desires.
For example, when I make her oat-meal, I’ve learned she appreciates it a lot more when I place it in a special, pretty bowl which is set upon an at-tractive dish before applying a dusting of cinnamon that covers both the meal and also decorates the plate.
Last month, she planned a party called Th e Ladies of Lang Hill at our home in Brooks. Each of three ladies were invited to bring a female guest to the event. Th e party was not for sales solicitation, so there were no appeals for purchasing food storage contain-ers, makeup or scrapbooking sup-plies. Th e only request was to be very dressed up and ready to eat.
My son and I had the honors of serving as butlers. I was Geoff rey and my son was Alfred. Our names were not derivative of classic literature, however, as we were instead inspired by Th e Fresh Prince of Bel Air and Batman, respectively.
Sorry, Jane Austen.I wanted this to be a very special
evening for my wife, so I explained to my son that there was to be no joking around and that we would, even under the most uncomfortable of circum-stances, hold in any fl atulence.
Mission accom-
plished.When the four-
course meal, poetry read-ing and violin and fl ute duets were over, all agreed that the night was a success. Neither Alfred nor myself spilled any hot coff ee on the ladies and I maintained professionalism, even aft er being tempted by an attractive, young woman to join her in rapping the lyrics to the Fresh Prince theme song.
On no shortage of occasions, as Heather was preparing for this event, I walked by explaining how excited I was for her and how beautiful every-thing looked. She suggested that per-haps sometime I could arrange a simi-lar event for my male friends.
I tried to picture what that would look like.
You see, I am the girliest of all of my closest male friends, but that is not to suggest that I am a girl. Many of my guy friends shoot animals with guns and know what a crank shaft is. Some of them are able, when they have no tissue, to actually blow their nose by holding one side of their head and shooting the contents directly only the ground.
I think a dinner party with all of the frills would be lost on them.
Generally speaking, even at my most eff eminate, I am quite comfort-able eating from paper plates and disposable plastic food containers. I
think many men are like this.
I actu-ally used to work with a man who would bring spaghetti for his lunch and eat it from a baggie.
Not even the Zip-lock kind.
I do enjoy going out to eat on oc-casion and having romantic ambience and food not served in Tupperware, but during those times, I am usually with my wife. Part of what makes that environment more special is who I’m sharing it with and what it means to her. She does not need to know that, if left to my own desires, I might eat a pepperoni pizza on on the toilet while reading a comic book.
Of course, I am exaggerating. I have more class than that, but mostly because of her infl uence on me. She’s made me aware of things I never would’ve considered on my own.
Just recently, she told me that one of the biggest selling points for her satis-faction level of a restaurant is whether its bathroom is warm or cold. She then spouted off a short list of local restau-rants with the warmest, cleanest rest-rooms.
Although I’m learning, there’s much I still do not know. I endeavor to maintain my studies, though, in hopes of peppering her life with small bless-ings simply by making the extra eff ort.
And even if I fail at creating a world worthy of Jane Austen, I can always depend on the reliability of Mrs.
Dunster.

I always fi nd random things in my pockets at the end of the day: paper clips, gum wrappers, dry cleaning receipts and the ever-present lint. These drawings are what’s left in my head when the day is done: the random “pocket lint” of my brain.
Chuck Downs is a carbon-based form of cartoonist who lives in Florida with his wife and two children. By day, he is vice president of marketing for a company that clearly does not conduct very thorough background checks. By night, he fi ghts crime. Now that he is old-er, his experience only walks the gamut for fear of pulling a ham-string. He often “misuses” quota-tion marks, and likes to frequently split his infi nitives.
