Master Dong?

A new neighbor to Morehead City, please welcome Master Dong, or is it Grandmaster Dong? Either way he's a hell of a Dong.

.....................always said, you can't write stuff as funny as what you see around you if you just take time to look.
And speaking of funny looking things, we all had a good time at Christmas. In-laws and out-laws gathered here and there to swap presents, insults, and just blatant lies. I of course led the pack. We all got through it without too many fights, shootings and muggings, although there was one cousin who was packing a boxcutter just in case. Luckily there was no case, although an obviously inebriated Uncle Darth Vadar kept telling everyone that "he felt their presents." We had a good time even though we are all dealing with a few empty seats. We go on.
TAR must have been a really good girl, or is that a really bad girl I forget..........because she got an I-pad. She has really enjoyed playing with it, much to the delight of our children we've taken Face Time to a new level.
Skuttle was closed this week and here it is Friday morning and I haven't gotten 1/10th of my catchup work done. Hell's bells, but it has been a restful week anyway. Jackson returned his second degree of Masonry Tuesday night and is now ready to be raised to Master Mason next Tuesday night. We went to a high school basketball game/fight, played some golf,and plan to fish today.
A High old time is planned for Saturday night as the one and only Fishin Optishin and wife invade Morehead City for an evening of fun and debauchery. Once again for the (insert unknown year amount here, want to take a guess?) consecutive time we will hopefully stay awake long enough to welcome in 2012. At some point we need to actually figure out how long we've been doing this; I date it to 1985 or 1986. Gets harder and harder to stay awake each year......... Watch the news to see how good a time we have.
And in honor or Bart Rittner's passing; "walk good everybody"
Happy new year and best wishes for a prosperous and healthy 2012.

I'm pretty sure it was 85' that the Sanford PD informed us that our wheelbarrows were not chariots and that we could no longer address our wives as 'Flicka and Mr. Ed' regardless of how many carrots we held under their noses. Somehow, I still specifically remember the part about, "...especially at 2AM in the middle of friggin' Main Street!"

Boy, did that dude get excited easily.

Of course, back then we used to get as messed up as football bats. Now we have a nice dinner, enjoy a few fine wines and wait in line for the bathroom before we go to bed.

Northern European Adventure Cruise in August, 2024: Tuesday 8/13/2024  Drove to Raleigh, lunch at Panera’s. TAR went to Nanny’s, I made call...
