Kind Act Count to Date: 95
Day 24 I've been for a day's clay pigeon shooting. If any of you are ever trapped with me in a building being attacked by rabid zombies, and we only have the one gun, then I urge you to take the gun. If you do not, you are guaranteed to be one of the restless undead before first light.
The only chance I ever have of hitting a clay pigeon is if it is lying still on the ground, and I am given the opportunity to sneak up on it. From behind. With a baseball bat. Even then it still has a fighting chance of coming away unscathed.
I blame it on my eyes, which are not the best eyes in the world since the surgeon got in and about them in 2001. They are quite good if you like seeing big black floating shapes gliding across your peripheral vision from time to time, but for actually seeing real stuff that is actually there (like clay pigeons or charging elephants) they are less effective.
At any event Jackie P and the couch potato have been being kind. And I didn't go into work as early as I usually do so my Significant Other could have a shower. So all that takes us within striking distance of ONE HUNDRED KIND ACTS. Get ready to unfurl your big banners.
