    We've been having a run of bad luck lately in keeping fresh content in the feed as of late. We do apologize for that, but life, especially around the holidays, and technical issues do make a fool of any person's plans... doubly so for fools such as we.

    We'll try it again next year; but until then enjoy some other random non-sense from us!
