Moonstruck

Walking Sparky last night in the full moon's white light, I nearly collided with an elderly man coming down from his home's side door to the sidewalk. His purpose seemed obscure - I think it was merely to get a better view of the full moon. Startled by us strangers, the man turned and fled back into his house.

When I first caught glimpse of the elderly man, I thought "Is he - nekked?" But no: dressed in white cotton T-shirt and briefs at 3 a.m. on a Saturday morning, he was dressed more for comfort than for style.
