Beware bored people armed with chainsaws.
After wasting many beautiful Fall days this year sitting at this computer, I finally made up for my laziness this morning with my very first December park trip. While restocking my squirrel photo supply, I took a few pictures of some of the…. um…. “artwork” that has been added to the park in recent years. Including this tree carving of a pic-a-nic basket, because your dog needs something more interesting to pee on apparently.
Alright, let’s get on with the Share Your World feature for this week! Questions provided, as always, by our hostess Melanie…
I’m pretty sure those decorations are a severe hazard to the wildlife…
Do you enjoy skiing or ice skating or if it’s warm where you are, hiking or enjoying outdoor sports?
I’ve never skied in my life, and my one opportunity to ice skate as a kid did not work out well. At this stage, my idea of “outdoor sports” is getting out to take walks around the ‘hood, and definitely not in the woods where I might end up getting ticks or leeches latched onto my balls…
These unhappy campers don’t like “outdoor sports” either…
Do you give to charities or homeless that you might encounter, during this time of year, more than you do otherwise?
What is the most enjoyable activity you engage in during December? Is it a tradition for you and your family?
I’m assuming this question is holiday related, in which case, there’s nothing I do in December any different than normal. For my readers, I have tortured myself put together a daily fucked up Advent calendar for your amusement each December 1-24. It’s fun when I don’t have to strain my brain for ideas…
I did good to find 24 different ways to kill off Buster two years ago.
What changes will [redacted] bring to your festive celebrations this year?
Absolutely nothing.
Please share a good will wish for the world!
The world could use more Skee Lo right now…
Evil Squirrel's Nest 
Clearly some park goers have too much time on their hands.
Or my fair city, which always claims to be broke, has too much money burning a hole in its pocket…
That carving is bizarre. Is it a tribute to Yogi?
Beats me, I didn’t go up and look for a sign. But Yogi was the first thing I thought of!
we are with you skiing and skating is the sport for surgeons to make them rich…
And the surgeons use all that money to go to the beach where it’s safe…
you bet! I damaged my knee while ice skating in south tyrol and at the end an idiot with a posh car drove over my brand new carving skis…rather no sports like winston said than snow&ice sports…
Best to stick to the “hood”, it sounds far safer…
Skiing down a mountain or walking through the most dangerous city in America. The choice is obvious…
Skee Lo needs a booster seat in that car of his. “A rabbit in a hat with a bat” sounds just a tiny bit scary to me. Great video and song…..LOL…..

I’ve always loved that song, and I put it on the DVA four years ago and it got panned for being rap. But I don’t care, it’s fun rap and humorous to see a short guy poke fun at himself!
I agree……and fun rap is absolutely not obnoxious like most rap.
Thanks Bill for bringing me my weekly dose of BWAHAHAHAH by you Sharing Your World! (of course this month I get TWENTY FOUR days of bwahahahah) from your SCT Advent Calendar. Each morning I quickly scan the blogs for your latest too…GREAT JOB, sorry it’s a pain in your arse. The wood carving thing and subsequent description of why it’s there (dog pee version), I took to Ziggy and asked him if he got bored peeing on fire hydrants or trees and he said “well hell yeah”, so whom ever got busy with the chain saw was only looking out for the needs of male dogs everywhere. Variety is the spice of bathroom choices I suppose
Have a cheer filled and merry holiday (as much as you can, fighting the hoards at Mecca. I was in the local version this morning and have greater respect for anyone who has to work there right now. I’d rather drink Drain-o. Only encountered one dim wit wandering around bare faced though. He got a “asshole” remark from me. Didn’t even flinch. I guess his entitlement has armored him against remarks. I wonder if it’ll protect him when the burly security personnel throw his ass out for wandering around unmasked?? Have a great week Bill!
The (redacted) isn’t going to change my holiday activities either, except now I can hibernate and avoid people, traffic, Christmas music and so-called merriment with no guilt. I have to stay home and avoid everyone. Governor Doofus’s orders! (((shrug)))
I’m in agreement about the Season of Giving (I can’t give $ to everyone, why do they keep asking?) skiing and ice skating. I put on ice skates once but I was scared to go out on the ice because I was afraid I would fall and run over my own hand. My friend laughed at me and said that wouldn’t happen. Five minutes later a classmate came in off the ice with his hand dripping blood!
The governors, doofuses and otherwise, can go get themselves fucked. I would have happily helped vote mine out of office had the bastard been up for re-election this year…
There have been some nasty skating related injuries in hockey… one which still makes me squeamish to even think about. I’ll stay the hell away from the rink with all those sharp blades, thank you…
