So so hard to see this wrap up in any way that I had envisioned, but it ain’t over until the fat lady sings! Ironically, back in the days of only 2-3 over the air TV broadcast stations. One used to have a clip of some big lady singing the nation anthem; upon completion… Well the old original, not this but it’s a reminder; back when tubes had more complex adjustments for users and internally for technicians.

How many times have we given BS cover stories; take one to know one! 😂

How did he know the guy wondered accidentally into the gay bar, but it made since after learning is name was Wilber; yep, like the talking horse.

And neither one thanking @Kristafor answering our pleas for the happy new years gift 🎁. Thank you, @Krista, that was the shortest years wait…that seemed days too long. Oops that sounds passive aggressive, honestly, thank you, thank you! 😊

Batter up! Is that baseball or hormonal juices we’re talking about?

Jaxon, too sexy for his feathers; the females don’t seem too impressed either.

How, this time he humps Joel… no, ok he spanks Joel… no, hmmm 🤔, if he assumes Joel is gay and then Roy too then he has another surprise coming if he tries to make that an embarrassment….backfire, no jealousy there Jaxon, it just looks like you coming on to Roy. Just join them at the gay table Jaxon. Btw Jaxon, given the overwhelming support of the team the night Joel broke your bronco, I’d say the team was probably glad you hadn’t expected them to do your dirty work and risk their own points to boot.

Not me, I was in band. Btw, this one time in band camp…

Ok, I’m going with you, if you don’t care to stay. I’ll give up the inheritance; the garden you love to mold, and the pond you like to wash in, the hammock you like to nap in, the things that don’t mean enough to stay, but too large to pack. So the cat shelter wins…

Tomato, tomahto It is …Learned to Lie, so @SilentandBroken, @chris191070, @weinerdog have stuck to the theme. But maybe…just maybe… it is time for a Happy New Year 🎊 …surprise. The one where @Krista lets it slip she has now written well over 200,000 words of new material for Joel and Davin to slew into baseball practice and new team/school dynamics. Yes, plus new dynamics of Cody now visiting multiple times at the ranch; even wearing his young cowboy hat and boots to match those that Joel finally agreed he needed. And… ahh shucks,…maybe that slip up announcement comes…with a new chapter. 🙏

Gotcha, thanks for clarifying that. I love the different cultures, societies, and communities around the world. I even laughed at the reference recently about directions with travel in a traffic circle. 🤔 It say enter and take the second left…well, in countries driving right side rules, there are no lefts and certainly not a second one. But living in Japan so long I also find myself being paranoid at times to look both ways, multiple times, as I even think about stepping off a curb; especially since the years I was there, the motorcycles were allowed travel between slower or stopped car lanes…whack, I was just dumping my watered down drink…sorry.

From an unknown bunker, an unknown man asked, “ what does this big button do?” Irony that the mutually assured destruction acronym is MAD, hmmm 🤔….human nature says try it…because seeing is believing. So, no going back to nature? One simple little switch could make it happen.

That’s too heavy for Tabby’s bedroll, and it’s not likely he’ll have electricity. Perhaps a lifelike alley cat is what he needs.

Well, you see, there are these two penguins…and they are really close…ahh, hmm, ahhh, Rick?

All while people can opt for mask coverings and flashy clothing.

Is Nick heading to Mardi Gras early? They’ll have to improve on that costume a bit. 😂 Now I’m confused about the perception of Mardi Gras in the land down under; is it more like a pride parade, in other words, why is it that Nick wanting to go an indicator of his sexual inclinations? Being at the birthplace of Mardi Gras in the USA, Mobile, Alabama, the balls and parades are far from being considered LGBTQ events or indicators. When the French Capital was moved from Mobile, relocated farther west to New Orleans, the mystic societies and parades remained religious based Lent and Fat Tuesday celebrations of feasting; kids were treated to many varieties of soft and hard candies tossed from the papier-mâché parade floats. The marshmallow creame filled graham cracker cookie sandwich, coated with chocolate, and branded the Moon Pie has long been a part of that Fat Tuesday tradition in Mobile; since the mid fifties at least. As Mardi Gras balls and festivities span November until Fat Tuesday, it’s no wonder the New Years celebration 🥳 incorporates a Moon Pie in a countdown drop at the New Year celebration. Happy New Year 2026; BTW, the fireworks for Sidney’s new year celebration was spectacular!

Slippery bastard; I just hope it doesn’t bring his focus to the boys as part of his retribution, against Rick and friends, for the park fiasco.

Do as I say, not as I do!

That’s a lot of talking to it…

Just a smidge; wait, who’s pregnant? Is that why he’s leaving?

No, I won’t let you go.

Earthquake!
