Twas The Month Before Christmas…
Like a lot of times when I go looking for something here in the ‘Grok, other stuff keeps popping up. This was originally posted back in November 2009. Putting aside some of the cultural references for now, the intent is still as valid today as it was back then.

Need a Laugh (Sort of) – “It’s Beginning to Look a lot Like … Genocide”

Palate Cleanser – Exploding Glitter Bomb V 4.0
This has become an annual thing with me – Mark Rober’s revenge on porch poachers. You know, those folks that decide that what’s yours is really theirs and grab your just delivered stuff from your property and then, with happy eyes, take it home. Then they make the mistake of taking full possession of your stuff by opening up the box.

There are a ton of liberal, Progressive, Secularists out there that just HATE the idea of being wished a “Merry Christmas.” Certainly, one of them is being reminded that there are also a ton of Christians out there that truly celebrate the season for more than the whole consumer-based Santa Claus, presents, lights part.

Friday Open Thread on Saturday – Is losing your sense of scheduling another symptom of having WuFlu?
Seems to be mine – did it last week and again this week. So once again, it’s your turn! With Christmas and New Year’s in the rearview mirror but could be a YUGE celebration / riot in DC next Tuesday and Jeanne Shaheen is calling us all traitors and seditionists, what’s on your minds?
