Strangeness in the Study
Pastor Petersen tagged me to reveal the oddest thing in my office. I'll translate "office" to "study," since I think there's a semantic difference that makes a difference. It boils down to whether I act like a scholar and servant of the Word or a corporate executive.
Anyhow, I have a small study here in the burrow and a larger one at the church. Both have more than their share of clutter, part of it probably deserving the appellation of "odd," at least by some folks' reckoning. My Martin and Katy Luther bobbleheads are a bit different, as is the brass statue of a late-1800s duck hunter. I have various Southwestern, African, and American Indian art sitting around. Some guns I have locked away, including the large bore rolling block rifle, may also seem odd. Perhaps the strangest looking thing currently gathering dust is the large Kachina head welded out of various sizes of pipe and pieces of flat iron.
Anyone who wishes may take this meme and run with it. Please leave a backlink and drop a comment if you decide to respond. ¶ 22:51 |
