Merry Christmas!

Shitter was full!

 

A chef family Christmas tradition, then watching my mother shreek in horror during the Bing Crosby/Danny fucking Kaye scene, while all the grandkids giggle about him saying the f-word.

 

You couldn't hear a dump truck passing through a nitroglycerin plant.

 

Is your house on fire, Clark?

 

Clark: Hey, Kids, I heard on the news that an airline pilot spotted Santa's sleigh on its way in from New York City.
Eddie: [after a pause] You serious, Clark?

Also, Obama just signed an Executive Order giving the Federal Govt off Monday, instead of everyone working a half-day. Merry Christmas, indeed.

 

This is the first year in I don't know how long where I haven't had to work Christmas Eve or Day. While the immediate financial future of our country isn't sitting on my shoulders, it is a pretty nice feeling.

 

I'm working both Christmas Eve and Day, but I'll be in Florida where it's supposed to be a good 40 degrees warmer than where I am right now, so I'll take the tradeoff.

 

Christmas 1987. Pats were practicing for a December 28 Monday nighter against the Dolphins in Dodgertown. Mark Blaudschun of the Globe and myself, only two reporters there, were pointedly not invited to organizational dinner. We had dinner together in the Vero Beach Holiday in, where, in our late '30s, we lowered the median age of the crowd by about eight years.
Hint for diners: Never ask to see the wine list at a Holiday Inn.

 

First post, Sarah?

SHOW US YOUR TITS!

 

It's people who make a difference... little people, like yourselves.

 

Clark: "So, when did you get the tenement on wheels?"
Eddie: "Oh, that uh, that there's an RV. Yeah, yeah, I borrowed it off a buddy of mine. He took my house, I took the RV. It's a good looking vehicle, ain't it?"
Clark: "Yeah, it looks so nice parked in the driveway."
Eddie: "Yeah, it sure does. But, don't you go falling in love with it now, because, we're taking it with us when we leave here next month."

 

Eddie: You surprised to see us, Clark?
Clark: Oh, Eddie... If I woke up tomorrow with my head sewn to the carpet, I wouldn't be more surprised than I am now.
