Go get 'em, dawg! The closer you cut to the bone, the more I enjoy the show.

Well, by all means let me sharpen my knife! For the foreseeable future, things are going to be rather interesting. Let's continue to see if we can make sense of it all. Cheers!

Lifers vs Death Eaters says it all.

Yes, they are an existential threat.

Happy to hear your readership is up.

'bout time.

The crowd ebbs and flows like all organic things. I think some people are looking for a news channel, but there are thousands out there. I think of what I do as the old syndicated columnists who provided color commentary.

Holidays and deer hunting for me...and work is always crazy. This time period, the run-up to Christmas/New Years, is always crazy but I love it. Always catch the right spirit and I'm in a festive mood til New years....and then it craps out.

I'm with you 100% on that, my friend. I love the Thanksgiving>New Year period. There's something mystical about it, though I sometimes wish we had winter here to complete the feeling. Monsoon just isn't the same. On January 2nd, however, I'm back to my crabby, cynical old self again for another 11 months.

It's not really winter anymore. Im in Vermont and we haven't had a real winter in decades. The lack of cold and snow kills the local economy. Hell, I can remember having a snowball fight on Halloween. That was back in the 80's. We had some vicious winters back in those days. Now? Yawn!

Move to my old town of Houston. It was a national holiday when we got snow there, but now it seems to happen every year. Many times I drove around in my convertible with the top down on New Year's day, but now they are having energy crises every other week from the cold snaps. I was in 3rd grade the first time I saw snow, and that lasted about 10 minutes. We almost cancelled school for it.

I would move there just to get away from all the idiots now populating my neck of the woods. I get why everybody wants to move to the country but we have a ton of fools here that will be nothing but a burden when the real collapse comes. They won't be able to wipe their own asses.
