"the future comes apace:" timon of athens: ii, ii

So I was at the post office tonight and by the front door, there is this regular post box that has been painted red, with cute graphics, candy canes, and the words "Santa's Mail" painted on it. Aw, how cute, was my first thought, followed immediately, almost overlappingly (is that a word?) with the thought that inside the mail box is probably a chute that leads directly out to the Dumpster. Wah wah wah wahhh - happy Christmas, kiddies.

So just a quick post here, this evening, and I do want to mention a not-to-be-missed event here at ye olde Skirmish of Wit, happening this coming Friday evening (December 22): I'll be participating in the Chanukah Blog Tour being held by none other than Amy Guth, author of Three Fallen Women. Although I am not Jewish, I have played dreidel, and eaten latkes, and participated in a menorah lighting. So I'm up for anything, and anything I'm a little hazy on, well, I'll just push on through. It'll be a blast so stop on by!
