I *hate* that the power outage caused us to miss this.
Trit was a fascinating man. An early reader and frequent commenter at the Castle, he drifted from commenting here and moved into SWWBO's blog, as my focus shifted away somewhat from guns and more to things military and political.
When SWWBO started Carnival of the Recipes (the longest-running Carnival on the 'net, I wonder how many people remember it was SWWBO's idea?) he submitted a recipe for... dog.
That caused some consternation at the Castle, I can tell ya. But Triticale was nothing if not a practical man, and his own man. As astute man.
Not as polished as Will Rogers, perhaps, but he had that same eye for puncturing pomposity with a simple observation.
He'll be missed here, too.
The music is a little different, but now is the time at Castle Argghhh! when we dance: In Memoriam, for Triticale, the Wheat and Rye Guy.
