Something dangerous probably. Maybe a goat or a spider or something.

It’s a misty mountain top with destruction and a bright sun.

A little desert sunset near Aravaca.

This piece of wood I stumbled across today does.

I photographed the above while I was waiting for some helpful people to show up to push my car out of the snow when I got stuck trying to get to the top of the mountain where I hoped to have a mystical revelation or at least a long long walk.

This pizza right here,

is the hottest pizza in the universe.

It was made with…

12 habaneros finely pureed
10 seranos
10 jalapenos
a tablespoon black pepper
7 cloves of garlic
a splash of sauce and olive oil
roasted corn
topped with mozzarella cheese

baked at 350F for about 10 minutes

made me ponder life and the universe,

after the second piece.

It was all pretty trippy and highly recommended for seekers.

I don’t know why I never noticed that until tonight. While chatting with my neighbor while looking at the light spiral in the front yard, he told of a documentary he saw about birds of prey and then said about owls, “They’re so COOL!”

That made me realize that all the predators of the world are really cool. No one ever says, “Boy, those pigeons are so freaking cool! I sure do love the way that sheep flock!”

It’s the fox that kill, the wolves that chase, the jaguar that stalks, the falcon that picks prey out of the sky that’s really fucking cool.

Hell, anyone ever hear the phrase, “Damn! This peace conference wrapping up the final negotiations about water rights was so freaking cool I can’t stand it!”? No. Why? Because no one could ever say that without immediately laughing hysterically.

What you might here though is, “Marine snipers are cool!”

Even the pets we tend to keep as a people are the hunters and killers. Cats and dogs hunt. Maybe not those silly foofy inbred monstrosities but little cute kitty purring up a storm is dreaming of slaughtering a million mice and happy doggy is hoping for the day when she can take down a deer and tear it apart with her teeth.

Humans love killing. Humans love the animals that love killing.

But isn’t he so cute the way he plays with that toy mouse.
