Harper, the pack mule, had a gnome problem. One had stuck itself to his ear lobe with hot glue. If that wasn't enough, the gnome, named Gemini, was wearing a dominatrix harlequin costume. Harper hates pushy clowns. The calcium deprived miner Harper found considered the gnome (peppered with ear hair) quite a tasty morsel. Harper himself prefers lightly decomposed white asparagus.
