Merry Christmas

To all my SLGT friends.

Our Xmas started early. 7am due to our 7yo waking us up wanting to see what Santa brought her. (she started asking @ 6am.)

You can't call me a fair weather Blues fan.

Our dinner and the remainder of presents are coming later this afternoon, but I did get to open a few small things in my stocking – after I gave the cat and dog their toys out of THEIR socks first, of course (family loves them more). This is the best little Christmas gift ever, just because it’s sadly hysterical:

It’s hard to tell, but it’s a St. Louis Rams magnet – the guy’s body is a football, which automatically makes him 10 times better than the team itself, because I doubt he’ll be able to drop himself. Right?

Reporter: There`s a "stamp out the Beatles movement" underway in Detroit. What are you going to do about it?

Paul McCartney: We`re going to start a campaign to stamp out Detroit.
