Questions for You: Christmas Edition

Merry Christmas! For your holiday down time pleasure I have 1) Do you celebrate Christmas? 1b) If not, what do you celebrate at this time of year? 2) Do you put an angel or a star on top of your tree?

Giving Thanksish

Did I tell you that I had 15 people at my house for Thanksgiving dinner? Did I mention that 15 minutes before the big meal was served our kitchen sink totally backed up and even though we tried to drano and plunge it (I didn’t even know you could plunge a kitchen sink before Thursday) [...]

BBS

I’m still around. I just seem to have run out of non-football or Top Chef related words. But if you are interested: I recapped the Top Chef finale over on MamaPop. I recapped the NFL’s week one on Draft Day Suit. There is all sorts of nonsense over on Hot Metal Street. As for here… [...]

This is just a quick update from the road to say that our family was not injured in the Metro crash yesterday. In fact, the Goon Squad and I weren’t even in the area. We were on I-95 in South Carolina when the accident happened. Thank you to everyone who checked in on us.

The Circle of Life

Last night my father taught my son how “pull my finger” works. It isn’t as if he waited until the twins were five to show them, but now Ian has the secret. You have to wait until you actually have to fart. Last night Ian pulled off his first effective job. He rushed over to [...]
