Think you are right, Jen.
However, Farragut should have said it the way I did!

Yep...it's gonna be a great Christmas!

So what if my brake light keeps coming on! Full speed ahead!

They called mines in the water torpedoes back then...

I'm roasting some pork right now in said fixed oven. Jedis are listening to the Cinnamon Bear.

Joshua just wandered in here and spelled "T-O-O-T!" to me for some reason...he's enjoying knowing how to spell things and likes to spell scandalous things to me to see my expression (which of course I'm always happy to oblige and react appropriately.) LOL

They seem to work just fine...I imagine they're getting a little thin and the sensor is letting me know. I'll get 'em looked at after Christmas.

GAH! I let the brake light come on once in a car and got yelled at so bad!

Get it checked out!

This one just comes on for a split second and then turns off. I don't think it's made up it's mind yet. :-)

I have a ham to cook tomorrow.

Mmmm...ham...

I'm gonna do it the way Dad usually does, which is to boil it with some vinegar and garlic in the water for a portion of the cooking time, and then bake it the rest of the way. It turns out sooooooo good!

Ya know, of allll the things in a car that could go bad...brakes have to be on the top of the list of things-you-really-really-don't-wanna-be-without.

I am in kind of a good mood now, right before Christmas, too.
It's a nice time of year, eveyone's thinking of someone else, for a change, even I am doing that.

I got this sweatshirt at the thrift store...it's hysterical. Gotta duck on it that says "Rudolph the rednosed rainduck" By a guy named John Baron.

The cartoon looks familiar, but I can't place it...

Yeah...you don't want to have to rely on the Flintstone Braking System.

It really doesn't work as well with modern vehicles, for one.

The floor kinda makes it tricky.

I am much less worried about my brakes suddenly failing in my little car. It's so small, I figure the handbrake and careful maneuvering would probably get me out of trouble. When I drove the family SUVs, I worried all the time.

Here's the duck...

The shirt is marked 1985...so it's an old sweatshirt. But I love it. This duck has what looks like sticks taped to it's head with tape and a red Christmas tree ornament taped to it's bill! It has the most perplexed look on it's face!

It just makes me laugh every time I look at it.
