I've been having the best time today between doing laundry and logistics for moving my 90+ yo mom.

Your 'hood is particularly rough. We're surrounded by rich sissies who get worried if they bother me they'll get their Lambo keyed (and they would).

Green onions (but not the song)
Blair Witch Project
White Christmas (and the movie too)
