Framed

I've never been framed!
I've been blamed for lots of things in my life. I must admit that for most of the charges, I stand guilty as charged. However, believe it of not, there were lots of times growing up that I found myself in the wrong place at the wrong time. For example, I and others had nothing to do with burning Lewis Lumber Company down that fall evening. We seemed guilty, but we were proven innocent. But I know who did. I had nothing to do with the large, back field that caught fire that afternoon after school. But I know who did. Did I find mischief? Sure did. Did I do a few things I regret now? Sure did. Was I ever framed for a deed I had absolutely nothing to do with? Absolutely not. Somedays, I wish I had been.
It would have made a heck of a story.
By the way, I am framing this weekend.
Does that count?

  6. When I saw the title of this post I thought, "Oh, crap, Birdman's in jail and needs bail money." You can imagine my relief when I read your commentary and find that you are not even a minor criminal. :)

  7. Just caught up! You have been posting some great shots. Looks like you have had as much snow as we have. I even took some of those shovel pictures as a measure. Hope you had success with your framing....photographs?

  8. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law.
