Hey Sean, you still hanging around these parts?

Many months ago we added two tiny blue botias to our glorious fish tank. Our concern at the time was that the other fish — namely three fairly large parrots — would eat them whole and be happy about it. Instead, the botias adapted, killed our dolphin whale and ultimately turned on each other, with the larger of the two killing the smaller. The remaining botia grew to about the same size of the parrots, and has just been bugging the holy fuck out of them on a daily basis lately. Finally, last night while we had company here, we had to end the night early after catching the little bastard trying to knock the parrots right out of the tank. Today, we brought it to Petland and said “do what you must.” Nature is nature, but c’mon, the botia wasn’t cute enough to get away with that. My Geophagus — best fish on the planet — has a dime-sized scar on his face from the thing. At least, in retrospect, I’m pretty sure it was the botia’s work.
Anyway, things just got plenty interesting over on the Advent Calendar. The Advert Calendar has also been brought back up to date, with two new ads — one for the Lotto, the other for Garfield.
EDIT: Entries for Sunday on both Calendars have been added. God, I’m gonna miss Christmas being on every radio station 24/7. There needs to be a grace period after Christmas to ween us off it. The marathon ends way too abruptly. One minute you’re dipping the lemon peel in the sambuca, next minute someone’s dropping it like it’s hot.
