This has not gotten the respect it deserves. Not being a very good scalper is a credit to you, not a detriment.
Nice work, Enn Dubya!
Going for the posting trifecta...
Last night a few idiots in masks went and stirred things up further where they have been protesting at the 4th Precinct. Apparently 5 people got shot but at least they say the GSWs aren't life threatening. This is starting to get real stoooopid.

Stay strong. I may regret my decision (although putting me up against a Christmas tree/my kids and Elvis isn't a fair fight).
Eh, some days it's not so bad. And it sure as hell beats the alternative!
Where, what & why? Is this a Minnesota thing?

looks like there was a police protest and some guys in masks showed up and started shooting at the crowd

More on the protests. They have thrown rocks and bottles at the police, occupied the lobby so no one could get in and out and vandalized some things. Police have shown a lot of restraint during this. Now it is about to get really stupid - on the day of the kid's funeral, no less.

**** be getting crazy. Claims going around that the shooters were white dudes. Only 2 miles from my house and a few blocks from my work commute route. Not looking forward to this going all Ferguson but things have been at a low simmer here for years.

I decided to delete all the serious stuff I posted previously in this post.
Anybody have big plans for Thanksgiving? We're going to the aunt-in-law's Thursday and to Iowa Friday night through Sunday morning.

Closing on our house tomorrow. Going to the farm Thursday and moving on Friday.
When I was in Hawaii, my mailbox got full from all of the junk sent to my apartment, my little bit of mail that I get, and the previous apartment persons mail. I went to pick it up when I had time, they had mailed everything back. I asked them to restart mail service, and now twice I've gotten messages that things were returned. I went online to put a hold on my mail for the packages that were coming, they sent those back anyway.
Saturday morning I had to corner the mail delivery guy to tell him to stop sending back my packages.
I just got an email that something sent to me by my job was returned to them.

Netflix and chill. Just me and the pup, as I don't want to drive all the way to NE Iowa for one day.
Sounds like Little Man stopped puking so Thanksgiving is on again in La Crosse. Have to run over to Byerly's and grab some sage dressing since that's the annual Uncle Boxster contribution to the turkey meal. Oh, and wine, Uncle Boxster always brings wine.
Then down to Iowa next week for a few days. Have tickets to the hoops game Tuesday night.
I think this proves that Nickles is just an alt for another well known poster on here.

Blue Christmas is one of my favorite Christmas songs.
Also, it drives me nuts when Happy Xmas by John Lennon is played as a Christmas song. It's not a Christmas song. It's an anti-war song.
I agree. And musically I don't think it is anywhere near Lennon's best work. If it wasn't a Christmas theme and trotted out every December because of it, it would be nearly forgotten. Of course you could say that about a lot of the Christmas music that gets rolled out every year.
