I don't know what you're all doing to celebrate the new year, but Kori and I just got back from a friend's house where we did a little socializing.

It was your typical party - Sausage, chips, guacamole, salsa, and a salvaged horse leg.

I guess my friend's brother found the leg in a desert in Eastern Oregon and liked it so much that he carried it back to the car and drove it home.

Kori, obviously the honored guest tonight, got to spend most of her time sitting with the leg:

finders keepers

Try to stifle your feelings of jealousy.

Also at the party, but not shown in the photo, was a homemade bee hive.

The same guy who carried the horse's detached leg out of the desert also brought the horse's skull with him. He noticed that some mason bees had made their home in the skull, but were running out of room. Being a hospitable kind of guy, he took some wood and built the bees a nice winter home which they're now inhabiting.

Seems a little bit like inviting vipers to nest in your garden or something, but I'm not one to judge.

Actually, I really am one to judge, but I'll lay off for the night.

Happy new year, you bastards. I think you're all some A-OK people.
