He tries immediate appeasement by offering genuine goobers but usually the victim will turn a disdainful back and my friend swears he saw one squirrel actually shrug its shoulders. My peanut-feeding acquaintance excuses what must appear inexcusable to all animal lovers, by insisting he practices the deception merely to determine the extent of a squirrel's emotions, i and without further legislation a fairly dependable indication of what the country is in for.

On the first day out from Cobh the sea was rough and the ship rolled from the force of the wind on the port side.
