Damn Sausage Swiper - I had friends at the bar that did this - kind of....

Sausage Swiper

On 20 December we are expecting Sausage Swiper. He loved to eat sausages and stole them whenever he had a chance.


The ninth was Sausage Swiper,
a shifty pilferer.
He climbed up to the rafters
and raided food from there.
Sitting on a crossbeam
in soot and in smoke,
he fed himself on sausage
fit for gentlefolk.
.
Now, in Wisconsin these guys steel Brats.  But when I worked at a gay bar I had co-workers that would steal a date right from under your nose.  Or, worse!, would steal a good tipping customer.  (The "sausage" in this would be your double entendre.)

Today's picture follows the theme of the fault line.  I loved this area.  It is also near here (which is a landmark in the flat country) is the site of the first Allthing - the democratic council that meat first in 900AD.  It is considered the longest serving parliamentary  system in the world.
