Merry Christmas, my friend! OK, it is a bit late. More than a bit, I guess; it must be tomorrow morning there by now. (In fact, it is getting on into tomorrow morning here, even. I just got home, where the Internet lives, a few hours ago; and I'm up quite late again, yes.) Still, the sentiment holds!

P.S. Egads, your name has changed! Now I shall have to update all of my mental notes, pointers, and tags to reference your new name. Think of all the paperwork, man!! The paperwork!!!

P.P.S. And the profile! That, too, has evolved into a new form! So much change to keep up with....

P.P.P.S. Just teasing about the changes.

"IronJack"!?!?!

Now that's a screen name! I like it, yez I do!

(Hey...are we experiencing some sorta Jeckyl and Hyde thing here? From Lackwit to IronJack!?!?! Hmmmm......
)

Seriously, though, where did it come from? What's the origin?


(Oh yeah..."camper". I guess we use that to describe any small-scale, pull-behind, live-in sorta deal. Claire's is the kind that's all aluminum, with a little bathroom, a little kitchen, fold-down bed. She has an easy-chair where the old fold-down dinner table would be, and the bed is folded down all the time. She parked in the woods in a place where she has no running water, so she brings down jugs from the "big-house" and just pees outside...the bathroom is a storage space. She has propane tanks for cooking, and electricity running down from the house by extention cord. TV, VCR. It's very nice inside. Lacy, gauzy, flowery, quasi-hippie decor. Glow in the dark stars on the ceiling, artwork and crystals. Very cozy. She loves it, but not enough room for me. I get cabin fever!)


What did you get for Christmas??
