Jan 2014!

Hey Party People, 

Sorry it has been awhile since my last blog. 

The holiday season had me running crazy. I just want to wish Happy Hanuka to my Jewish friends, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all. 

As 2013 came to an end, I had several craziness happen. Especially in the winter. My Halloween decorations has always been a major hit in my neighborhood. 

  

But the sad part was because of an Ice Storm, I was not able to get my Christmas Decorations up in time for our HOA judging. So, I lost the Christmas decoration contest for the first time in THREE years. Held the title of Best Kids Theme since the contest began. Oh well, there is next year. And sadly, I have already started planning for it. 

Cheers all!

Shroomed Reindeer

Mush-Roomed Reindeer. 

Ever wonder why Rudolph's nose is red? Or the games they played? Or even why they "thought" they could fly? Well those crafty Reindeer think at least they could fly!
Keeping with the Christmas vibe, here is a tale for all ages. It may also explain some things. Maybe Santa is selling the stuff? The deer are just sampling their own junk. May also explain why the "Fat Man" can travel so fast. Hmmm, maybe it's not just the deer chomping on the shrooms. And look, I would not drink the Deer piss to get drunk... But according to this article some do!

Reindeer Eat Magic Mushrooms to Escape Winter Boredom, Scientist Claims

(The Sun) - It's no wonder Rudolph and his reindeer pals can fly: scientists say they have found that the animals regularly eat magic mushrooms to get high, The Sun reported Wednesday.
Scientist Andrew Haynes says reindeer deliberately seek out the mind-bending fungi to escape the monotony of dreary, long winters.
Writing in the respected Pharmaceutical Journal, Haynes said: "They have a desire to experience altered states of consciousness."
"For humans a common side-effect of mushrooms is the feeling of flying, so it's interesting the legend about Santa's reindeer is they can fly," he continued.
Haynes also said that in some parts of the world herdsmen drink reindeer urine to get high themselves.
