I ALMOST SPRAYED A SKUNK — by Steve Nadis
Have you ever sprayed a skunk? I almost did last night (not that I advise it). I was watering some plants in our garden when a little skunk entered the yard, coming within a couple of feet of the spray from my hose. I turned off the hose and watched the skunk amble through the leafy vegetation. I didn’t spray it and, fortunately, it didn’t spray me either.

Thanks Z, it sounds like I am truly blessed.
This is the kind of stuff that makes the front page of the Weekly World News: “Suburban Revenge: Man Sprays Skunk!” You don’t want to know what they’d do for the photo, though.
Sounds like I not only almost sprayed a skunk, I also almost got my 15 minutes of fame. The Weekly World News! What I’d do for a story there, front page no less. Finally my reputation in journalism would be firmly established.
That reminds me of a true story- as a lad of 18- who’d taken a break from a ‘gathering of peers’ on the outskirts of our fair town: (the law’d changed the year before, so our “lubrication-of-choice” was now legal) As I submitted to Nature’s call, I noticed a small, striped creature waddling thru the underbrush, who must’ve been surprised at the outbreak of a g… Shower on a sunny day. As it cleared some brush, giving us both clear view, it looked back to examine the ’source’… & by it’s reaction, was Not too impressed! -M’ko Polo
THANKS MP — Impressive or not, this subject just may warrant more space.
