— Open Blog [Okay I managed to erase the original ONT while attempting to remove some spam. I blame myself, the late hour, and all the cough syrup I drank but mostly myself. So here's a replacement ONT to make up for it.]
Evening M&Ms. Christmas approaches so here's a little something to get you in the proper spirit.
“Fairytale Of New York” by The Pogues with Kirsty MacColl
You scumbags and you maggots and well you know the rest. Interestingly in 2007 the BBC started censoring the song due to its use of the words 'faggot' and 'slut'. After complaints they relented and played the original version.
Or you can just build a beer can shim. Please use your new found moronic powers for good.
Top Toys of the 80'S
Okay some of these do predate the 80's. But I guess toy history started in 1980.

Fiesta Bowl employees say bowl repaid political contributions CEO John Junker denies repayments, which would violate election laws
Past and present Fiesta Bowl employees have told The Arizona Republic they were encouraged to write checks to specific candidates and were reimbursed by the bowl.
Such reimbursement would violate state and federal laws that prohibit funneling corporate campaign contributions through individuals. Participants could be charged with misdemeanors and felonies.
*snip*
The Republic reviewed campaign-finance reports since 2000 and found 12 occasions where similar contributions from three or more Fiesta Bowl employees were recorded on the same day and given to the same candidate.
In many instances, records show, Junker and Chief Operating Officer Natalie Wisneski gave to the same candidate on the same day.
On March 8, 2007, for example, Junker, Wisneski, their spouses and Wisneski's secretary each gave $2,100 for a combined $10,500 to John McCain's presidential campaign, records show. A McCain spokeswoman said the senator's campaign had no knowledge of any alleged wrongdoing and would never condone any violation of campaign-election laws.

12 WTF happened last night with the comments???? It must have had to do with that obscene refreshing issue.
I blame the Zionist hair-rays of Miss'80sbaby. I tried to tell everyone about how evil she is, but nobody listened to me.

So the 42-quatrain poem I wrote praising the ladies of the ONT has been lost to time? Forever?
