Back in the Saddle

I’ve returned from our weekend Thanksgiving celebration at my sister’s house, which was exceedingly pleasant, aside from the drive home, which was completely annoying, as holiday traffic, nasty weather, and construction all conspired to nearly double our travel time.


Mr. Shakes: I’m turning into a
chubby volcano of annoyance!
I didn’t discover any telltale signs of a war on Christmas, oppressed Christians, or otherwise maligned conservatives on our voyage, but I did see this massive billboard flanking the highway:


Isn’t that sweet? It’s nice to know our collective opinion is so important to the rightwing blowhards that produce and listen to such swill that they’ll put it right on a billboard. Aww shucks, WIND—we didn’t know how much you cared.
