Atchison, 52, "lost his temper" in the couple's Fruitland Park home Monday evening after his wife asked for help and put a spoon in the sink, accidentally splashing him with water, according to an arrest affidavit obtained by FOX 35 Orlando.
Atchison packed his things and went outside to his vehicle, before returning home because "he had been drinking" and told his wife to leave instead.

Merry Christmas, Darling! Happy New Year in the Slammer!

LOL! The first song that came into me head, too!
Merry Christmas! :)
I think the Scots already got the patent on that.
Do the Feats of Strength come before or after the Airing of Grievances? Sounds like he was trying to kill two birds with one tree.
If she were wise, she'd "welcome" him home with loaded arms... one in each hand.
This complements axe throwing
Tis the season.
You have to admire Florida Man’s initiative.
Anoreth works as a statistician now, and she’s getting married on Saturday to a nice man with a job.

Was this a National Lampoon Christmas Vacation tree or a Charlie Brown Christmas tree?

“I’m leaving!”
“On second thought, you’re leaving!”
“No, wait, you can’t leave!”
The song just fit so well.

She was completely disornamented.
I was serious…
