I do like my father.

[kiya]

I'd dropped him a message to let him know that teinedreugan and I aren't going to be making the trip down because of the snow and the sun throwing a hissy fit. He called up this evening to try scheduling a time for a phone call tomorrow to wish my aunt and cousins a happy Thanksgiving.

And we got off onto a random ramble, the way we usually do.

And he explained how he's been organising his company to prepare for a massive snowball fight against another office, across the street. Including massive all-company emails covering logistics, the declaration of the field of honor, loss parameters, whether or not it's legitimate to peg flag officers . . .

. . . yes, flag officers. The war's between the Institute for Defense Analyses and the Center for Naval Analyses. Apparently the rule against decking generals and admirals is to prevent unnecessary casualties among the people who give them projects. ;)

That's priceless.

Your father sounds like a neat guy.

I like my Dad.

The rules for combat include "No iceballs, no penaids, and no rocket assist."

Oh, that's priceless.

Would that I lived in short driving distance, and had a half-passable wood shop at my disposal. Clearly this is a snowball fight in need of a trebuchet.
