It'll freeze 'em solid! Winter is the picnic time of year, on the warmups. No snakes, bugs or mosquitoes. Saw a poor lizard 2 days ago, out of hibernation. Hope he/she got itself buried back in the ground again...

The first daffodils were starting to open, and then the snow hit.

Perhaps you're staking him? Or are the rumours just that?

Nope. It was a some light relief he did during his time off from captaining some spaceship or other.

Hmmm. So what would happen if we introduced Zelda's French SHUMs to RSE's Texas? Irresistable Force meets Immovable Object? Creation of Ultimate Evil? International Incident?

This sounds like you need a ZCD and a seat; let me introduce you to our resident and excremely capable (in fact, far too capable) barman, Montsmags Marc. And if you have any, ummm, side-effects from the ZCD then we have a very capable Pshrynk to help you through the night after the morning before. And if his bill gets excessive, we have DGma who, it is rumoured, is able to negotation a discount with the aid of her stick and friendship with Adrian.

Does that mean Pshyrnk is working on a cure for Texas?

Growing up in Scotland, that happened reasonably often. Never seemed to cause our native daffodils a problem.

You can take a man away from Texas but you can't cure him from Texas.
