Maybe it's something I said...? ;)

I heard from Fred that I can take this into a hardware store for a no-cost replacement. I'm heading into town on Friday, so this is promising.

This guy did a comparison between the X25, the X27, and the 4Kg maul. The X27 has favourable reception in this video and others I've skimmed through.

I enjoy splitting wood. The X27 makes it even more so.

I loves me the X27.  I hope they give you a replacement.  I'm just amazed you guys were able to break it!

Headed out to begin my tree search, and spied the trail of some of the ugliest, scrawniest reindeer I'd ever seen...

I've investigated these before, did not realize they were made by reindeer. Makes sense though with the flying thing. Who else could leave a trail of arrows without any other marks around? I'm still not clear why they would be pointing us to piles of bird poop- are they working on some new winter composting system up at the north pole?

All I know is those reindeer are a buncha friggin' turkeynecks...!

More wood processing. I finished up another face cord in the first half of the day.













And in a radical departure for the Half Assed Holidays, Christmas Stocking Day became Christmas Stalking Day, where Paul and I stalked through Missoula and stopped at a few key locations.

For instance, I picked up a copy of the DEVO 50-year retrospective, 2-disc set at Missoula landmark Rockin Rudy's.



Paul and I also caught a screening of "The Boy and the Heron," over at the Roxy. If you're looking for artsy animated films, well then this one's for you.



We then wrapped up the evening and chatted about the film we'd just seen over at Scotty's Table, which I've heard is likely "the best restaurant in Missoula."

That's all for now. Thanks for reading, and enjoy your day...!
