Happy New Year!! Please,please, please let it be a happy and productive New Year!! In that vein, my black eyed peas are soaking! And I managed to hunt down a ham hock!! Cheers to all you determined Screamers!
Cheers to the New Year! Although I’d rather like a do-over since I don’t know where the heck 2025 went! Insanely fast is how it went! What in the world will 2026 bring? At least I can count on you, SimComm! Happy New Year 🥳🥳🥳
Loved the reindeer video. I’m gonna ram his butt, I’m gonna ram his butt, I’m gonna ram his butt.
BAM!!😂😂😂
Skiing: it is EXHILARATING once you actually know how to do it. Remember there’s no bad weather. Just bad clothing. You just have to have the right gear.
The PS5 kid was awesome 🥰
Funniest of all: the poodle with cotton balls of snow on his legs.🤣🤣🤣
Back from the fjells in one piece despite an almost-storm hitting us on the way home. Had to stop two times and break out the chainsaw to remove trees from the road. Funny thing:
At one spot, there were at least seven guys trying to pull a downed spruce to the side. Not so easy, when it is still attached to the ground. When they see me approaching, buzzing chainsaw in hand and wearing my "alert-neon-greenyellow"-jacket they all go wait in their cars. Instead of helping me by removing what I cut off, speeding things up.
Gee thanks guys! Effing tourists!
At least we got it lighter than the East coast: one city had to turn on the air raid sirens to get people to go indoors, and the press managed to find a Karen that felt "volated and harassed" becaused of it.
Also back from the ER from cutting open the back of my head. Stepped through a low door. Was a nail poking out through the over-piece, just enough to cut my scalp so I couldn't see for the blood. But, ER visit went smoothly despite loads of tourists with ski-related stuff being there. 500:- ($50), bunch of stitches, and 90 minutes later I was on my way home, grumbling about having a bald patch on my head (with my hair, the doctor complained about not seeing what was the thread and what was strands of hair).
I enjoyed a whirlwind week of birthday celebrations followed by a pretty, pretty good Christmas Eve and Christmas Day Lunch. Going out on the 30th to celebrate the wine guy's birthday, then New Year's Eve wine dinner, Going to have two people over for the annual sauerkraut fest. Last year I just did it for myself. The year before I had 14 people. Said, self, I said, never do that again.
I'm trying to figure out where the skier's camera was mounted. No sign of it in the last frames.
Monday... and it is Wednesday morning now.
Sorry, I have been sick with a cold, but not a horrible one.
I hope everyone had a super happy Christmas, thank you for the videos!
I need more coffee, and them perhaps a nap
Take care of yourself and get well soon!

Facts! Have a happy new year!
Where to begin! Great collection today.

Where is that skier’s magic floating drone camera?

Thanks, SC! Thanks for all the Monday madnesses!! Have a great 2026 everyone! Don't forget: "never give up; never surrender!"
Great video, Gen. Chang! ("Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war!")
Putting boards on your feet and sliding down a mountain marks you as an idiot...
Favorite skiing joke... After Sonny Bono died...
Here on the mountain the weather is overcast.
But it's sonny under the trees!
Oof, good one ☝️😎
I tried snow skiing, but it’s so hard to get the boat up the hill 💥
Also what were the two big cats enjoying sliding in the snow? Tigers?
I think snow leopards!
Thanks again. Happy New Year to you.

Darn you, hearing impairment! I didn't understand what the kid got that wasn't for him and then what he did get that sent him into tears of joy.
He got a Playstation 5 controller "accidentally", but he didn't (yet) have a Playstation 5. He was very forgiving for the error.
Thanks. Being 84 has its disadvantages for sure. But the alternative....
Have a great 2026.
Nice! Thanks for sharing, and have a Happy New Year 2026, keeping God as your guide! :)
