All is clear on the fireplace bricks. And the main reason OneEar breathes down my neck is because, when he is unfortunate enough to have me around, he is substantially taller than me. He can't help it. And don't listen to him about the link; Cocoa and I take exception.

Hi Loud But Off Key,
Thanks for getting rid of the moldy pumpkins! The nutcracker must be delighted to have only a couple of pinecones to guard now. Being short myself, I know what it’s like to have tall people breathing down your neck constantly. I’ve found that a couple of swift jabs in the stomach (or any other area) usually cause them to back off a few feet. You might try this technique the next time OneEar is treading on your personal space.
After giving the matter a lot of consideration, I decided that you and Cocoa can be accessed through “Rusty Never Sleeps” with relative ease. This way you’ll all be profiled when someone selects the link. Is this acceptable to the three of you?
Bok - Your post misrepresents the facts. I am taller than you even when I am fortunate enough to have you far away from. Nice try at making yourself seem taller while at a distance.
ML - I can't urge you strongly enough to reconsider. I just can't.
Foiled again!! Damn smart-alecky lawyers!!
Hi OneEar,
As usual, I think I’m missing something here. “I can’t urge you strongly enough to reconsider” what? I’ll gladly rethink whatever it is you’d like me to but I’ve got to know what the issue on the table for discussion is first. Please enlighten me…..
Do you want your link on my Blog site to be only to you? That’s fine, but do you want to hurt your friends’ feelings?
Hey, OneEar, was your "white russian" comment a racist slur against my fireplace nutcracker? Be honest.
Hi Loud But Off Key,
Are nutcrackers Russian? I thought they were Prussian or German. Whatever nationality it is, this one appears to be doing “the best damned job” that he can of guarding the fireplace.
ML - Yes, please proceed to hurt their feelings.
Bok - No racism intented. Upon closer inspection, I see that the crusty brown/black glass on your hearth is home to some sort of rotting stick-plant. Would you like to borrow MY recipe for a white russian?
Hi OneEar,
Sometimes I think you’re not overly fond of your friends. I’m not out to hurt anyone’s feelings, but if I have inadvertently, I apologize. Perhaps Loud But Off Key should place that anemic looking plant in some dirt and give it a shot of Miracle Gro. Somehow, I don’t think a “white Russian” would be conducive for a plant to flourish. He’s proven that he can produce moldy pumpkins….
That HAPPENS to be a pint of Guiness, for your FYI.
ML - Don't worry. The Clowns are tied by the sadistic bindings of a youth wasted together.
Bok - I double-dog dare you to drink it.
Hi OneEar,
I’m glad to hear that. I’d hate to think this petty squabbling would lead to anything serious.
I think my mom still has a nutcracker just like that.
