Did you snap off your wrist bone? No? Then shut up (I use this line a lot, it being something I did). The holiday season is almost over. WHOO! HOO! ---

To Annie-Xmas: While most people wish that the holiday spirit could last all year leading to peace on Earth, you, Ms.Xmas,…well I just don’t know what to say! To Catsie: My don’t you crave a regimented world. No creativity in your world. Not a hair out of place, I’ll bet. That’s it, thanks for listening. ---

We get it, Annie, the stuff to do is to meet with your favorite dealer and the extra cash is to pay him. It’s a dark, dreary day. I kind of like it because I’m just hanging out. ---

It was Stephen and Tabitha King’s 48th wedding anniversary, you idiot. And Tabitha doesn’t get the credit she deserves as a writer because she’s married to Mr. Prolific. We are having a mild winter with so little snow it’s really nice. ---

And you still got ripped off! Doesn’t the term _fiscally prudent_ fit into your tiny vocabulary? Take a few minutes away from reruns of _Keeping Up with the Kardashians_ and _Gilligan’s Island_, and try using your head for a change. I can’t wait to see the latest episode of _Survivor_! ---
