Just got done assembling this years version of our Christmas card. All ready to be sent.

I know many hate it, but I enjoy doing it as it makes me go through our pictures. No letter- the pictures are a 1000 words.

Don't understand the hate on Christmas letters. Way more personal than a Hallmark.

I don't mind it unless its pronounced "zed". Where the hell does the "Ed" come from?

That was the best part of the photobucket thread. I've been through almost 2000 pictures since it was started. It even gave me an excuse to update the digital picture frame.

Who said anything about slicing you up, man? I just wanted to carve a little "z" in your forehead.

My cat has grease on his forehead. He was "helping" in the garage.

Don't visit GRM... we walk around barefoot.

I've had to degrease a cat, and a ferret before. I've also had to decarbon a ferret when he thought it was a killer idea to use the catalytic converter off my ms3 as a play tube.

I got a cat that showed up in my garage when I removed the bench seat from my Toyota pickup in favor of bucket seats. Since then she's taken an extreme liking to the under side of my Impala and as a result frequently gets oil spots in her fur. When the oil coverage reaches about 25% SWMBO makes me give her a bath (the cat gets a bath, not SWMBO...)

What can I say? The damn cat has great taste in vehicles.

Just liked the quote

No problem. This is among the things that have happened in my life. Like the morning I pick up the one albino ferret and walk into the bathroom, and ask "why is this ferret purple?" He was purple. We never did figure out why.

The ferrets have since gone on to greener pastures, but I think were getting more soon. They're too hilarious not to.

Had the ferret recently been vaccinated when it turned purple?

No, it hadn't. He got into something. Little bugger's are good at that.

When I read "purple ferret", I thought you were talking about something else.
