Default PGCA Special Award for Richard Flanders.....

I'd like to announce this special award that the PGCA has arranged for Mr. Richard Flanders. The award is a special thank you for his organization and participation in the event that's come to be called the "Annual Shooting of the Shitcicle". This event has given us all much amusement and joy over the past few years. We of the PGCA feel that Mr. Flanders should be given something as a thanks from us all for the joy and fellowship he's provided in sharing with us the tales of this now famous occasion.


P.S. While I am a member of the PGCA, I have no right to give awards with it's name attached. This is what's called a joke, those of you with no sense of humor please don't read this. Whoops! Too late.....

It's a man pointing a pistol into a toilet, I thought it appropriate. I took about 15 pictures of it trying to get a good one but that's the best I could do.

Needless to say, I am honored!! You've all been temporarily spared this years event by a spell of warm weather that negated the necessity of the chore by just a few days.... stand by though; winter is not over just yet.

Just like the first robin, the shooting of the shitcicle is a sign that spring is just around the corner!

Well, it took a while to get here and for me to remember to take it out in the subzero outhouse to put it into a place of honor but it's sunny now so today was the day. I think this is a fitting place and surroundings. You all be the judge.
