About four years ago, I was walking along a boardwalk that helps park goers traverse a beautiful floodplain in one of our city's metro parks. I was watching where I was stepping and not paying attention to my surroundings. For some reason, I stopped looking down and I looked to my left. Staring at me, probably no more than ten yards away, was a huge buck. Here's the weird thing: the first thought I had was, Does he know it's Tuesday? Subsequent quirky ideas popped into my head: Does he go on vacations? Is he thinking of retirement? What if our animal friends thought and acted more like we humans? Wouldn't that be a hoot? I hope these 114 quirkies bring some smiles and laughter into your life.
