Friday Morning Open Thread

I was thinking about a nice cliche of a Christmas song to post, and I came up with this:

"You will get a sentimental feeling
When you hear
voices singing "Let's be jolly
Deck the halls with boughs of holly""

    ... my least favorite voice of that era (my AM radio-listening childhood).  Fingernails on the blackboard.  That aside, Merry Christmas everyone!

    Good thing I'm such a thoroughbred (NOT).  Work work work wrap wrap wrap warp warped dusting baking soaking the prunes in Brandy to try to make this tradition Christmas Goose edible.  I've moved into position hugging the Bah Humbug fence trying to make it under the wire!  Why do we do this?  And I'll do it again next year too unless someone nukes us.

    We do have Auburn Christmas lights though.  That's right...we are blue and orange for Joshua this year

    Favre vs Sterger (none / 0) (#3)

    Interesting conspiracy theory as to why the NFL has made no ruling on the Brett Favre (fill in the blank)Gate case with regard to Jenn Sterger.

    The NFL mentioned 2 weeks ago they were ready to make the ruling but continue to sit on it leading to this interesting theory making the rounds...

    As the grassy knoll theory goes, Sterger has said she would back off any potential charges or lawsuits if Favre is punished or admits wrongdoing. Because the NFL is unlikely to punish Favre in any fashion, and there is no way Favre is going to publicly admit being an ass and damage his golden boy persona, the NFL commissioner sits on the case until the end of next week because the statute of limitations on a sexual harassment claim in New Jersey runs out next Tuesday.

    a broadcast of the Mass from the Vatican.

    I can't help but wonder what Jesus would think about it.
