cumberbund OMG I'm marrying the most wonderful woman ever tomorrow. As such, I decided to try on the tux (white dinner jacket - think Bogart in Casablanca meets Bond in Casino Royale - very spiffy) I bought in November, just to make sure the holiday nog 'n' grog didn't cause it to shrink.→[More:]

I pulled the $50 cumberbund out of its box only to find, that the straps that hold it around my waist are made of ballistic nylon and are secured by a plastic clasp that isn't fit to tie my sleeping bag to my pack.

sigh

What price elegance?

That said, is that a weed pipe at the base to the bunny's scythe?

Happiest of New Years, bunnies.

That's one way to start a new year! You have no reason, though, to ever forget your anniversary. Congratulations!

i get the impression that the bunny is holding a scythe/crutch hybrid. Although I have no idea what that means... maybe "If I don't kill you, I'll at least maim you! MUHAAHAHAHAHAHA!"

Have NONE of you people ever used a scythe? They have two handles. Kinda like a weed wacker. City folk.

Anyway...I am SO excited for you and krix, saf! Hope all goes perfectly and be sure to post pix. Congrats!!!
