Welcome back Fixers!
I hope you had a great holiday weekend (Thanksgiving if you’re American; International Empty Internet Day for everyone else). Mondays are always rough but doubly so after becoming a turkey narcoleptic on Aunt Francine’s couch for the last three days. To help ease your pain, and make up for abandoning you in favor of delicious pecan pie on Thursday, the Voting Page has twenty submissions today instead of ten!
Also, with only twenty-five shopping days until Christmas, twelve until Hanukkah, twenty-six until Kwanzaa and twenty-two until Winter Solstice I’m going to try and stuff the site with as many hilarious holiday themed kludges as possible. So make sure you catch your neighbor trying to rig up the lights or the curtains being set aflame by a poorly place Menorah.

Um, here in a lot of the rest of the world it was Eid al-Adha. Thanks for remembering.
Do you want turkey with that?
Some lentils, perhaps?
Hope you enjoyed Eid al-Adha! Here in Turkey we call it Kurban Bayram, but the idea is the same. Not being Muslim, I didn’t celebrate, but we did have 2 days off school! Guess I enjoyed the break more than the religious holiday! ^-^
While a lot, ok, most of this stuff is downright scary, quite a few are really ingenious. I know I want to keep some of this stuff in mind the next time I have a breakdown of something.
Er, actually the internet was much as normal – we don’t all sit around in our mud huts/terrorist underground bases, jaws agape, waiting for The Americans to come back online you know! I LOVE this site, but that comment was really ignorant…
Is it “International Empty Internet Day” because all stu… eh Darwin Awards North-American nominees are busy finding out how to prepare the turkey?
Kludgers fixin Thanksgiving dinner? Here comes the fire department. Or even the Bomb Squad.
Thanks for this site, i just found it last week and i have been on it everyday. I love it. This is the stuff i grew up with, but momma had a more colorful word for daddys klugdes. I have inherited his gift and look forward to the day i have a post. Keep it up. I only wish i could share it with my daddy, but i am keeping the tradition alive by sharing it with my son. He also has the gift and will have better posts than me. Thanks again for bringing back fond memorys of daddy and an interesting childhood…
Nice that we have a political correct maffia around here….
Ooops wrong site….
You just made me so happy by remembering Winter Solstice!
