I figured I’d write a few Christmas-related thoughts. Holy crap, I’m actually getting my Christmas shopping in order. I just need to pick up a few things, and get a couple more ideas, and I’ll be done. Of course, a lot of this stuff has to come through the mail…so there’s still a lot of …

Ottawa News Without Max Keeping?
Woe. Seeing that Max Keeping is about to retire is pretty freaky. Let me explain. I grew up near Ottawa, and he’s been the news anchor for Ottawa’s news for as long as I can remember, and apparently for longer than I’ve been alive. He is *the* news dude on the 6:00 news in Ottawa. …

Her Mail Should Be Marked Certifiable
As soon as I saw this story, I knew it deserved mention up here. Joan Najbar sent a letter to her son who was in Iraq. It came back stamped “deceased.” She was pretty upset, understandably so, and went on a hunt to find out if this was true. She found out that it wasn’t, …
We Represent The Singing Synth Guild.

You’re A Mean One, Mr…Krieger?
I think Shawn P. Krieger has watched the Grinch movie too many times. What kind of prick steals a Salvation Army Kettle full of cash and pushes a volunteer? He hates Christmas does he? Well, I’m sure he’ll hate Christmas in jail even more.
Big Brother, Got The Keys?
Hey there, gang of four bank robbers. It’s good to leave the bank with the money, but your keys also need to come out of the bank with you. If not, well, it’ll be a short trip to jail.
