so, now, everyone's all excited about discussing yetis

And, really, it only turns out that I was going to say that Oldest became especially fond of the yeti from the original Rudolph animation after seeing him cracked out on that Robot Chicken show the kids were watching a couple of weeks ago. And he asked for one for his birthday next month.

And I was going to say that it is really amazing just how many yetis there are out there -
my search turned up:



this one, which is a poor poor excuse for the one to which I am referring.

And this whole GI Joe set, which I could swear one of my brothers had -


and which has nothing to do with yetis at all and which: my god the GI Joe collectors out there are, uh, really really interesting.


And this guy, who is for sale but is not a yeti but who may appear in the yeti scenes of the aforementioned show -- I can't remember. I do remember that he is nasty. A nasty elf. No one wants a nasty elf.


THIS. This is the yeti we need.
And I got him.
On ebay...but his foot is off and rattling around in the package. I have to have K look at him and see if it just snaps back on.

Oh.
The whole yeti thing is tiring.

And, so, that's really all I had to say about yetis.
