It appears the bricks...never mind. Subdeacon Joe answered it much better than I ever could have with words just as I started typing.

President Bob!
Has a nice sound to it! -
I'm reminded of the time in San Francisco (where else?) when I walked into the break room at work... three female-type persons were seated at a nearby table; I smiled, and said "Good morning, ladies..."
At which one of 'em turned, glowered at me, and snapped "We are WOMEN! We are NOT 'ladies'!"
I smiled again and responded "Well then... I reckon you aren't at that," and walked away.

Did you get talked to by HR for that?

(likely he has one rifle - that is an "arsenal" now)http://www.pressdemocrat.com/news/6443732-181/california-gun-sales-surge-to?artslide=0

We did a bit of both.
This year we are going to go by the Old Calendar to "do Christmas" in the sense of the gift giving and such. We will hit Matins tonight and the Liturgy tomorrow morning for the actual celebration of the Nativity.. -
