Time Out

It's that time of the year again. I'll be taking my usual Christmas vacation from the blog and will return no later than the 6th of January. Yes, I realize that I took a week off just last month when my mother died (it's been a month already?) but given the circumstances it didn't do much to help me relax and forget about the bullshit for a while.

Thank you for your patience and understanding and I wish all of you a Merry Christmas.

    Have a Merry Christmas and thanks for all the laughs and info this past year. As I always tell my team before the holidays- 1. Do not add to or subtract from the population. 2. Stay out of hospitals and jail. 3. Do not be the reason somebody makes a sign or a rule. 4. Try to preserve some brain cells while you celebrate. You never know, you might need them. By the way - same to all the readers. Ya'll may be a bunch of miscreants but your my kind of miscreants.
