New Antenna Ball
I’m sure all of you recall my riveting post concerning the antenna ball on my vehicle. If you are a visitor to this blog, you can search for “antenna ball” in the sidebar to find the post. I know everyone else has already saved a link to that post in their internet favorites or bookmarks.
Mugs automatically understood my distress at being forced to display an antenna ball that looks like a sailor. Sensing my discomfort, she quickly jumped to my aid and sent me a new antenna ball. So in a small, intimate ceremony, Sailor Antenna Ball was replaced by USA Flag Antenna Ball. The photo below captures the moment in the ceremony when the outgoing and incoming antenna balls changed positions.
Notice the smile on Sailor Antenna Ball’s face as he anticipates being reunited with Mrs. Sailor Antenna Ball.

I love the smile. Maybe you can design a manry mission flag with a smile. Thanks for the font. Being an old person has its advantages when it comes to son-in-laws.
Sir! “Small, intimate ceremony”? Forgive me for saying so, but I do not believe lurking in the parking under the cover of darkness can be considered ceremonious. All is forgiven, and understood. Mr. Sailor Ball will be sent home to CDR DeBerard, but I am retaining my Naval Academy t shirt. Just in case.
I too was concerned about the antenna ball but thought maybe noone else had noticed it looked like a sailor. I’m glad you can now drive around with dignity.
