Why do I wear this rabbit amulet? My favorite necklace of all is a silver chain with a square amulet that has a cut-out rabbit in the center. One day I will post a picture of me and that amulet, but for now I just want to talk about WHY that silver necklace is so important to me. ****To begin with, though it may seem irrelevant, I am not a complete vegetarian.

A little squirt of a kid with eyeglasses and a ponytail shouted out from the opposite side of the field, "YOU ...
During my career in the Air Force I came to associate drinking and membership in the Noncommissioned Officers Club (NCO) as joined at the hip. I had made a personal choice regarding my own drinking never having developed a taste for it. (I guard my taste buds with a jealousy that makes models seem the height of modesty in sharing beauty tips with their peers.)
