Holiday Cheer

First, I want to wish my fellow bloggers a very Merry Christmas and a Happy and Prosperous New Year. Christmas has always been and always will be a special time when we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. Some secularists, who do not believe in the Lord, have been trying with all their might to destroy Christmas and pretend it is a "winter break" or some such nonsense. If you encounter one of these immoral individuals, remember, they are on the slippery slope. If they continue their goddless ways, they have no hope. In the meanwhile, the rest of us will celebrate our Holy Day in the honored and traditional manner.

I will assume that some of you are now forced to agree with me that the weather definitely sucks. It has been painfully cold in most of the nation. Even the southland has been turned into a deep freeze. The situation here is better than most of the country. The next time you see one of those global warming nuts, punch him in the suck. Tell him Bassbelly told you to do it.

We are at the apex of the citrus season. My spies bring me bags of oranges, grapefruits, lemons and tangerines. We are eternally grateful for each and every bag of fruit. Thanks, guys and girls!!

I get no fishing reports from anywhere now. The deep freeze has brought that to a halt. When I was younger and a lot dumber, I would wait for this kind of weather to go goose hunting because all the wimps stayed home. I am afraid I have now joined the ranks of the wimps.

If you pray, say a little prayer for our troops fighting overseas. We are free because of them.
