[Dave Brown]

Thankyou Mauricio
Here is hoping you will have a good new year

[Dave Brown]

Time to make my New Years wish
Firstly, to take no Polar Bear swam
Then try to be the best I can
Another waste, cause I already am

I am alsu looking for a lotto win
Or lotsa money from enny of my kin
I would also like to be ultra fit
But wastin no effort while doing it

And get someone to halt my getting old
Also have my hair again being regrowed
And the $Can buck that’s always dropping
That’s a trend I’d like to see stopping

A little sunshine is sumthin wouldn’t hurt
Possibly, even a minor alcoholic squirt
And also great results expending no effort
And a sweet little lass with whom to flirt

Well, guess don’t know what else to say
Being basically perfect in each every way
So around, I will just lay
Until comes round, next New Years Day

What can I tell you, Dave? Sometimes they like 'em, sometimes they don't.

[Dave Brown]

are you wearing a Griswold

[John the Baptist]

I'm afraid to ask, but what's a Griswold?

[Dave Brown]

Got a half hour!!
Explanation 1:
In "Hell on Wheels", a Union soldier (who could be me in his little, almost confessional we are sharing) was making his confession in a church booth, however the listening preacher was instead a Confederate soldier, whose wife, this Union soldier and others had together shared in her brutal murder.
Instead of being forgiven, he was shot through the dividing curtain wall by that ex-Confederate soldier using a "Griswold" revolver, apparently a fairly common Confederated type side arm of the time.
"OR"
Explanation 2;
A gun.

As I understand it, most Confederates preferred the 1851 Navy Six revolver. Maybe someone ran the Griswold through the blockade.

[Dave Brown]

you R probably quite right
I am using a TV series as my 'source' and perhaps one of the writers who owns one, in an attempt to inflate the collector value, led me astray.
I can probably, more accurately quote the MPG of an Astro van altho they are a tad difficult to hang from the hip
Down another avenue, one son just got wacked with covid and the rest of us appear to have escaped with only a light touch.
Too much socializing over the Xmas season
Hope you are all there again.

The Big Bad Wolf was here for about a week, but evidently got bored and went seeking new game.
