Sunny and I discovered the remains of a Californiaroo while out on our walk this morning.
As you may well know, the Californiaroo is the long-thought-to-be-mythical North American cousin of the Australian Kangaroo. Sightings are extremely rare - in fact I'm not aware of a single sighting of a live one in this part of the State - and generally occur after consumption of alcohol. Or Crystal Meth.
Apart from their accents, it is believed that the other main difference between the two is that the Californiaroo is, like, way cooler and rad-er than a common Kangaroo.

Two Deliveries
It struck me as amusing* when I went out earlier today to find this scene at our front door.
A delivery from Amazon gently laid across our doorstep, plus a delivery from Cornflake gently laid alongside it.
Is that what you call a Do(o)rmouse?
* - this is in no way intended to make light of the plight of the mouse - I'm sure it found it's predicament far from amusing.

A future for the American Car Industry?
The jury is still out on whether they can make cars that people will actually want to buy, but it seems like they can make commercials that people will want to watch.
Check out the new Cadillac commercial below.

The Birds to fly west for Xmas
After nearly making it last year, The Birds (Steve and Sara) have confirmed today that they will be packing their bags and making their way Westward to be with us for Xmas this year. Their itinerary currently involves a few days in Vegas before moving on to LA and then heading up to us to spend Xmas Eve and Xmas Day in Kingsburg before heading up to complete their tour in San Francisco.
Good news, eh?
Well, perhaps even better news is that, with more than one British person in town, there will very likely be a traditional Xmas Dinner on the menu at some point in the afternoon on Xmas Day.
Now there's a reason to be jolly in the season to be, er... jolly.
