“You must have done something, otherwise it wouldn’t be looking at us like that!” She was right, of course, but so what? Now the Great Avenger of Righteous Karma had us in his sights. You can’t hide from these things, they’re like organic drones from Hell. Poke your eyes out, sew your lips shut, chase you into the gorge! Nothing for it but to get a great big cat and hang the feeder lower.
That’s Taos for you, everyone dies twice. Once before you get here, once again before you leave. The bird is the WORD, chilluns!
Any questions?
Good.
