1. Peace to all the citizens! And everybody else.
   Merry Christmas!
   Happy Hanukkah!

2. serious kudos to hj or whomever on the cover photo for the post. Awesome.

   1. That's quality

3. And George Michael? Oy.

   1. I was in the middle of Marta Complex when I heard.

      1. We just watched Keanu a couple of nights ago, where his music is heavily featured.

   2. Right after most of you guys rail on his Christmas song as the worst ever.

      1. He wrote "Wonderful Christmastime"?!

      2. on christmas day, no less.

      3. It's very sad that he's dead, and his family is in our prayers. It doesn't make the song any better.

         1. Did we specifically discuss Last Christmas?

         2. My favorite eulogy of 2016

            1. Yeah, I'm a huge fan of his, but that song is terrible. I just had a George Michael day a few weeks ago. My wife asked me how I'm holding up with Prince, Bowie and Michael all going in the same year.

               1. (and yeah, it's still better than Wonderful Christmastime)

4. Cleveland is still good at basketball.

   1. Vegas airport is still depressing.

      1. isn't it amazing, though?

         i had a bunch of time to kill before a flight there once. the young, super smashed chick a few seats down moved over next to me, started blowing smoke in my face, and babbling on about something or other for awhile. out of pleasant conversation (and to see how long i had to deal with her), i asked when her flight was. we then worked out together that it was in 15 minutes taking off from a different part of the airport.

         no choice but to literally guide her at a fast gait to her flight. made it just before they closed the door. i dodged a smoky kiss as i bid my goodbyes, thankful she was safe, but someone else's problem.

         ahh, vegas.

5. The TPups are playing Christmas game.
   Can they please win the game....or at least make a respectable showing.

   1. Not if we keep seeing black hole Wiggins.

      To be fair, though, they have generally not been blown out this year.

      1. I'm probably gonna start sounding like Rubio haters sounds to me when I talk about Wiggins.

      2. Yikes

         Alan Horton ‏@WolvesRadio
         Wiggins has now played the last 53 minutes without collecting a rebound.

         1. He's in the paint but not even trying to box out. So frustrating.

            1. And then makes a bad defensive play leading to a wide open three to end the half!

         2. That's as many as I have, too!

   2. You can't stop Enes Kanter, you can only hope to contain him.

   3. Tyus, Shabazz, Payne, Jordan Hill, Dunn

      that lineup is about as low as it gets.

6. Question: at what age does explaining that the actual thing in asking her to do will take less time than she's spent arguing and crying about it (tonights example is brushing teeth) work as a debate tactic.?

   1. Boy at 10...not yet.

      1. coworker at 60...not yet.

         1. Ha!

            Neither of these responses makes me feel better.

            1. Boy is a unique circumstance. My younger girls are more reasonable.

               1. Girl, 19. Nope.

                  Of course, with her it often is a concerted strategy to deter us from ever asking her to do anything.

7. I was getting the jalapeño ready for bed tonight and thinking the boys had really done pretty well at Christmas this year. And then . . . he threw up. Ahhhhhhh, kids.
