So who has finished their Christmas shopping?

Me. I had it done weeks ago. Well, days. We gave everyone a new grandson/nephew/cousin

You gotta love one-stop shopping.

I suppose you have to wrap him up now and put a bow on his head.

It's the idiotic� 'American dream' notion that everyone should have their white picket fence, yard and house. When, in fact, that is economically and environmentally disastrous as is being demonstrated quite aptly. We trashed a fine mass transportation network at the shrine of the automobile and good urban planning to suburban sprawl.

We are eating our own scheiss, so to speak, for those idiotic decisions.

So the house issue is not because they are wood. It is because they are cheap ass.

Seems like the gators would be mutually exclusive to the pigs.

European cities are starting to get sloppy transportation networks as well.

But at least that way you'd have something to take your frustrations out on.

Several years ago it was around midnight, I came around the corner walking back to my office. A fox and I were about 6 feet from each other. I turned around and went the other way. I didn't want the rabies shots.

Maybe it was the fox that Per keeps referring to.

Oh no. The fox I'm referring to is too cunning to get surprised like that.

I'll be back there by then , doing my share to bring down the gator population. Gator is very tasty!
It tastes BETTER than chicken!

Sounds tasty, I will have to try it sometime.

I have had it several times and liked it ok. It is a bit like crayfish, like chicken in the sense it is a bit bland or mild on its own so it readily takes on the flavor of whatever spices it is cooked in. I have had it most often fried, but also grilled ( it gets rubbery fast ) and pan seared, all ok.

For "cities", read "countries". In the sixties and seventies, the Danish State Railroad was so precise that you could set your watch by it, down to the second. Now it's a joke in every sense of the word, except the amusing sense.

The train . At least you could walk around a bit more freely. And hopefully there would be fewer crying kids.

I think I would rather tongue-wash my own feet than be in a monorail in Disney World.
