Full Metal Slack It.

This is my hammock, there are many like it but this one is mine. My hammock is my best friend. I must master it as I master my life. My hammock without me is useless. Without my hammock, I am useless. I must nap in my hammock. I must ignore all those who seek to disturb me. My hammock is human, even as I, because it is my life. Thus I will learn it as a brother. I will learn its weakness, its strength, its parts, its accessories. I will keep my hammock clean and well lubricated. I will attach a string to a nearby tree so that I can pull on that string and make my hammock swing. This is my hammock, there are many like it but this one is mine.

Semper Zzzzzzzzzzzz
