Meat Market for the Soul: Life Lessons from the Butcher Shop - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

At the Market, I watched a chicken-cutter die in agony on the floor. I also listened to a bull-roar story about bison-sized rats attacking modern-day buffalo hunters in a Custer's Last Stand affair. I saw a cousin knee a guy so hard that the fellow ended up unconscious in a sea of urine and richly deserved it. Oddly enough, I learned about the rare slices of life in a place I loathed and hated.At the Market, I swung at encircling rats with an axe handle in a flooded shaft. In a meat cooler, I watched as a rapist that had escaped the law, got the stuffing kicked out of him. I skidded down a drag strip upside down in a car with an MG body and a Pontiac engine, the roof shedding inches from my head. And I learned with the courage every Braunger is born with but somehow skipped me one could fake it.On a Market charity run, I nearly took out a bishop's limousine on an icy hill. My father's clay feet were later exposed to me by a tank of soaking hams. I also found out that one can't escape a lie detector machine after stealing meat from the Market. I watched my father's revamped school go up in an explosion. And I learned about the nobility and greatness born in all of us.
