\n(It would be four, if Santa\u2019s were not plastic. These are Timmerman, Vic and journalist Austin Tice, all with similar beards within the Damascus time zone, though Vic\u2019s was in 1980. Times change?)<\/p>\n

Busy morning, for an Advent Sunday. Rocket\u2019s phone had bounced off the concrete corner of the HQ entrance near where that person upstairs parks their Dodge Charger. It is red and still has wheels, unlike Colin\u2019s car over in Shirlington. But more about that in a sec- Kristina said she would scooter by there on the way over and see if it was still on the hubs.<\/p>\n
Melissa was in an uproar and shared it before fully unwrapping two layers of soft knitted garments of rich green and red. \u201cTravis Timmerman was found alive in Syria yesterday when those when thousands of prisoners were released from Assad\u2019s torture jails!\u201d<\/p>\n
She got settled slowly into the ergomatic chair by the window \u201cTimmerman is a cute guy- striking- and his story is awesome! He says he was detained while traveling visa-less on a remote part of the mountainous Lebanese border near the Golan Heights. He was on a pilgrimage to Damascus.\u201d
\nRocket came back in from the Patio where the now-waning moon blob had disappeared in the west. \u201cFreaking Army-NAVY Game. First sports I\u2019d seen in a while, so the emotion and spectacle are amazing. I mean, a QB draw in the 4thquarter for 48 yards? Then the transition stuff like it was an inauguration or something.\u201d<\/p>\n
Melissa was not going to be deterred though, since she found the story moving in a way not fully understood by the Boomers. The idea of seven months in a Syrian jail while simply attempting to walk overland to the ancient city where Solomon and David ruled.<\/p>\n
\u201cAfter release,\u201d she said with determination, \u201cTimmerman was found wandering the streets of Damascus by locals. At first ,he was mistaken for missing American journalist Austin Tice. More on that as the search goes on,\u201d she said, apparently hoping to get a boost from an \u201cin passing\u201d to a feature note with compensation.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut the pilgrimage thing seems quite literal, not descriptive. Timmerman\u2019s family had no clue he was in Syria. They were struck by what they called \u201ca Christmas miracle.\u201d<\/p>\n
There was general agreement on that as Kristina came in with an image she got of Colin\u2019s car on the way over.
\nThat is what DeMille decided was the tag line now, which is to ensure you install at least one locking tire lug on both sides of late model Toyota Corollas on the Columbia Pike in the Fifteen Minute County. We recommend all four wheels, you know?<\/p>\n

You would hate to get stranded on the way to someplace important!<\/p>\n
