Greetings, my fellow port swillers!
My apologies for the dearth of posties of late. Somehow, as usual, ol’ Robbo let Christmas sneak up on him and, as a result, has suddenly found himself in the usual all-hands-on-deck mad scramble to get everything washed, ironed, planned, cooked, festooned, written, wrapped and post-paid before The Day. (Because God help us if we fail to achieve a Martha Stewart X-mas!)
Anyhoo, a brief observation: Every time I see a car this time of year with a red felt “nose” on the grill and a pair of “antlers” displayed above the side doors, I find myself wishing that I had a twin-mount dorsal phaser array aboard my beloved Wrangler with which I could blast said car to Kingdom Come.
Just saying.

Robbo, it’s much more stealthy when the phaser fire comes from a Subaru, especially here in VT.
At least you have some holiday spirit. Neither I nor the rest of the family are in a holiday mood.

Ive noticed a lot of those this year as well. And I thought all the talk of the exploding deer population in the local fish wrappers was of the flesh and blood kind. Maybe there is a sterilization pill for the mechanical kind as well.

Maybe they are alien, invasive deer. We’re dealing with invasive fish here in the Great Lakes. Only way to be sure is double barreled shotguns. With deer slugs.
Oh, and Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Cap’n, I hear you. And I hope things come fair for you.

Fair winds will fill the sails again (and a Virgin Islands yacht charter sounds really good right now). I just need my personal “2 minutes hate” level of catharsis and really don’t have a good location for it.
Yeah, I don’t process emotion well. Comes with the hardware.
