Prizes to EVERYONE for showing up to share Thanksgiving whines with us. Sometimes this place is the only thing that stops me from heading up to a bell tower with a weapon of some sort. However, I'm so addled half of the time, I'd take a baseball bat, and then be out of luck.
(Sorry, everyone -- don't mean to offend anyone with the bell tower crack. Just my snarky way of saying I appreciate all of you and the WW.)
a baseball bat in a bell tower is almost like making music, and music is good. [isn't that what they mean by bats in the belfry?]
