In \"No Connections,\" Michael muses over a childhood marred by a lack of affection, parental support, and emotional guidance, all while embarking on adventures that are both thrilling and perilous.

\"They did not prepare us for the castration, and the first one happened right under my nose. I was on the calf's hind leg with my foot in its butt and keeping the top leg pulled straight for branding.

The vet came with what looked like a carpet or tile layer's knife. He reached down and grabbed the calf's scrotum and, in two swift moves, had sliced open the scrotum, reached in and grabbed the testicles, pulled them out a little way, and used the knife to cut through the connecting tubes and tossed them in a bucket. The calf bellowed and rolled its eyes. I would do no less if I found myself in that situation.

In no time, the air was full of dust, sweat, and smoke from burning hair and roasted flesh, and the bellowing of the calves filled your ears.

The dust swirled around me, finding every pore in my body. The smoke from the hot branding irons on cowhide invaded my lungs, and my entire being burst with pride and happiness as I lived what must be every little boy's dream.\"

Help! My hands have dropped to the keyboard, and I can't stop writing! I love to write. I have several projects completed or in work, and I'll look at adding them here. Other than that, I'm old, live in Seattle with my wife, Gale. We love reading, music, and I personally am a terrible golfer.
