Tribbles!

A big bag of Tribbles just landed... I ripped the plastic open and they just exploded out.. trying to collect them and round them up, and discovered one of them had a small "extra" attached ;-)

Hey Rob
ha ha, sorry had to make you work for that one ;-)
Corn hole bags? he he, no, watch cushions! I have a drawer full of watches bouncing all over each other, so thought I should do something about it

all good down under. Work still busy, family is healthy and happy

We just finished some major renovations on our house. Very fortunate with timing... we started just as Covid hit early last year, and our builders worked through it all until earlier this year. If we started now, materials have gone up 30-40% (if you can even get them) and most good builders are booked out.

Cool.

Oh-- And I'm not saying that David Gerrold completely ripped of the Martian "flat cats" of Robert A. Heinlein's 1952 young-adult novel The Rolling Stones, but... Well, they sho' is similar, and Heinlein's letters of the time showed he pretty much thought so. Fun episode anyway, however!
