Yuletide Birthday

Today marks the 85th anniversary of the birth of Just Another Blog (From L. A.)'s™ immediate male ancestor (No digital photo available; given names: William Otto; last name withheld to allow this web log to continue to make idle threats w/ impunity). He might still be alive today if he hadn't pulled a rather dumb stunt. Imagine living through the Pearl Harbor attack, being held under house arrest for a week by Marxist revolutionaries in Yemen in 1962, & then going out in a blaze of stupidity like this. And as the son of proverbially dirt-poor Texas farmers, having his birthday this close to Christmas didn't mean an extra joyous time of year, it meant one gift for both occasions. Happy Fucking Birthday & Merry Fucking Christmas to all.
