Cecil, a fellow Georgian, is the recipient of number six. For those of you who are wondering why I’m creating all these Christmas cards, the details are here.
As for number six, well the old Nutcracker came to mind.
These guys always look a little crazed to me. You know, wide eyed, sort of in a trance or something. I guess cracking too many nuts will do that to you. I wouldn’t be surprised if they make it against the law before long since it seems to have such a detrimental effect on these guys.
If they do, a whole new kind of crack house will evolve ya know.
Yep, abandoned houses in decent neighborhoods all over America will rise to become havens for drifting nutcrackers.
Nutcracker houses, that’s what they’ll call ‘em.
They’ll be marching in at all hours, carrying on with their sabres and knocking each other’s hats off. Strewing pecan shells and walnut shells all over the street…not to mention that tin horn crap they play in their cars with the volume cranked up to the max. All because of their crack habit…the insatiable need to crack nuts. Who raised ‘em anyway?!
Maybe it’ll never get to that. Hopefully it’s just a few lost nutcrackers we see once a year. You know, bad childhoods, crackaholic parents and such. Perhaps society can keep them confined to the theater, acting, until they kick their habit. Let’s hope so. More nut cases…that’s all we need!

Don, I was going to make a comment about bringing back the male fashion of wearing cod pieces….but I’ll leave it at that. Great dimented Nutcracker.
Um…well we’re talking nuts from trees here. This here’s a family oriented blog.
On the other hand, if these characters did get out of control then we’d probably see a return of the cod piece in men’s fashion.
Don: Cool postcard, and, best of all, I received my own personal Don West original in the mail yesterday after i returned from the veterinary hospital where I learned Ramona has to have surgery to remove a (probably cancerous) tumor.
Anyway, the postcard looked GREAT, and it is by far my favorite Christmas card this year.
I’ll be sending an image your way soon.
Cheers!

Hi Karen!
Give her a good tummy rub for me. (Ramona is Karen’s Bassett Hound folks)
Glad the post card made it in good shape and that you liked it!
I’m so sorry to hear about Ramona…she’ll be ok though
I look forward to receiving your image!
Merry Christmas!
