For one day, no more work rants, celebrity ramblings, Youtube videos, or other inane commentary. I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas (or Channukah, Kwanzaa, and whatever holiday the Scientologists celebrate). Best wishes to everyone this holiday season and I'll be back soon.
Hello kiddies ... I hope this message finds you doing well and recovering from the Christmas bloat. Christmas was good and relaxing. The kids had a great time and Santa was generous enough to leave me a dead bird on my front porch. I guess he couldn't make his way in because I don't have a chimney, so he decided to leave the pear tree-less partidge on the stairs outside of my front door. Either that, or it's some sort of subliminal mob gesture. In either event, I'm flattered that someone would be so thoughtful to get me the gift that no one else thought of. Well done.
Knowing my propensity for posting stuff on a timely basis and the likelihood that I will be offline this weekend, I wanted to wish everyone a happy holiday season.
My old roommate in Denver was Australian, so I found this skit involving Hugh Jackman and the "Christmas Kangaroo" particularly humorous. Plus, Will Ferrell is great. So if this video doesn't amuse you, then there it's not me, it's you.
Sorry for the delay in posting. I have been busy dealing with a bunch of stuff pertaining to the house, moving, work, etc., as well as struggling to configure and update a new work laptop after my old one died.
Anyway, to answer the various questions that have been asked over the past week or so:
* I officially move in on Wednesday * The hot tub seats 7 * Sadly there is no stripper pole in the new house (sorry AJH) * There are no new rugby injuries to report after Saturday's game * For Christmas I would like world peace and Scarlett Johansson's virginity
Anyway .... I've always been a fan of those old Christmas specials that I watched as a child - "Charlie Brown Christmas," "A Year Without a Santa Claus" ... you name it. Well, except for that lame "Nestor the Long-Eared Donkey." Anyway I somehow stumbled across this video, which analyzes "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer" and illustrates what an asshole Santa Claus is. My favorite quote is when he tells Rudolph’s father that he "should be ashamed of yourself" for having a reindeer child with such a deformity.
I kind of knew that there was something wrong about him given the fact that Santa maintained a colony of slave...., uhh, I mean "indentured servant" elves. But I didn't realize what a tool he was before watching this video. Enjoy.
For one day, no more work rants, celebrity ramblings, Youtube videos, or other inane commentary. I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas (or Channukah, Kwanzaa, and whatever holiday the Scientologists celebrate). Best wishes to everyone this holiday season and I'll be back soon.
