The Warped Woodturner (TWW) is a local artist traveling his artist's journey in a suburb of Springbrook, WI (pop. 536). TWW's creative calling is to use a wood lathe to make useless objects from locally-sequestered organic carbon for tourists to bring back to the city to give to people they had to buy something for but do not like that much. His target market is the senior citizens since their vision is not as good as it used to be so cannot see the defects as well. His marketing jingle is: “Bowls as simple as their creator”.

Guess who is coming to dinner

TWW got some new-fangled frozen General Zao or some such frozen meal recently. Tonight it was time to try it out. You have to bake this stuff for 40 minutes so TWW opened the front door and some windows to keep from building up whatever gases you get from burning propane in the house (they call the air polluter thing an oven). So anyway after about 40 minutes of baking it was getting close to the time to take a plastic cover off and bake it 20 minutes more.  It really smelled good. 

After putting it back in the oven TWW looked for some reason at the boardwalk coming up to the house and saw a two year old bear coming up to visit and stay for supper. The bear was almost on the porch and looked hungry.  Instead of closing the door like a smart person would do TWW ran into the bedroom to get a noisemaker to try to convince the bear that coming to visit would be hard on his ears. By the time he got back to the door the bear had decided to turn around and then started running after TWW shot once off to the side.  The color of the bear will not be named not to offend anybody's sensitivities but TWW hopes the black lives matter people do not to picket places that are not nice to bears.

Now if TWW had been smart he would have gotten a camera and taken some pictures of the bear trying to work the screen door to get in but such is life.
