Big Red Car here. Merry Christmas! It is 50F here in the ATX with a high forecast of 65F, the Big Red Car’s idea of Christmas weather and you?

If you have ever had any dealings with carpenters, then you can truly appreciate the holiness of this talent. Continue reading

The Imperfect Board

Big Red Car here. So The Boss is back in Steamboat for some skiing. It is cold and snowy in the ‘Boat which is apparently why The Boss goes there in the first place. Me and the housekeeper, well, we don’t like cold. We like top down Texas weather.

We just have to make it to Monday when it’s going to be 75F again. Please, God, move the sun faster, please. Continue reading
