Merry Christmas. For those of you that don't work in always-on industries, please take a moment to thank those who sacrifice their holidays to keep your power, internet, water, and the many other functions that make modern life so enjoyable operating. For my part, I'll be happy when I see the paycheck. 20 hours of overtime in two days! Woo!

Morning, ‘rons and ‘ronettes. There’s nothing I can say today that would better the words of Charles Dickens:*
"There are many things from which I might have derived good by which I have not profited, I dare say," returned the nephew, "Christmas among the rest. But I am sure I have always thought of Christmas-time, when it has come round-apart from... the veneration due to its sacred name and origin, if anything belonging to it can be apart from that-as a good time; a kind, forgiving, charitable, pleasant time; the only time I know of, in the long calendar of the year, when men and women seem by one consent to open their shut-up hearts freely, and to think of people below them as if they really were fellow-passengers to the grave, and not another race of creatures bound on other journeys. And therefore, uncle, though it has never put a scrap of gold or silver in my pocket, I believe that it has done me good, and will do me good; and I say, God bless it!"
A very merry Christmas to you all.
*not Charles Dikkens with two “K”s, the well-known Dutch author.

Despite mild weather, I find myself singing this. A lot. I suppose it is yet another way to say "goodbye" to my Emily-child, since it was one of her favorite hymns: http://www.hymnsite.com/lyrics/umh221.sht
1. In the bleak midwinter, frosty wind made moan,
earth stood hard as iron, water like a stone;
snow had fallen, snow on snow, snow on snow,
in the bleak midwinter, long long ago.
2. Our God, heaven cannot hold him, nor the Earth sustain;
heaven and earth shall flee away when he comes to reign.
In the bleak midwinter a stable place sufficed
the Lord God Almighty, Jesus Christ.
3. Angels and archangels may have gathered there,
cherubim and seraphim thronged the air;
but his mother only, in her maiden bliss,
worshiped the beloved with a kiss.
4. What can I give him, poor as I am?
If I were a shepherd, I would bring a lamb;
if I were a Wise Man, I would do my part;
yet what I can I give him: I can give my heart.

Heard this on Bill Bennet's morning in america earlier this week:
The Hands that First Held Mary's Child by Thomas H. Troeger
The hands that first held Mary's child were hard from working wood, from boards they sawed and planed and filed and splinters they withstood. This day they gripped no tool of steel, they drove no iron nail, but cradled from the head to heel our Lord, newborn and frail.
When Joseph marveled at the site of that small breathing frame, and gazed upon those bright new eyes and spoke the infant's name, the angel's words he once had dreamed poured down from heaven's height, and like the host of stars that beamed blessed earth with welcome light.
"This child shall be Emmanuel, not God upon the throne, but God with us, Emmanuel, as close as blood and bone." The tiny form in Joseph's palms confirmed what he had heard, and from his heart rose hymns and psalms from heaven's human word.
The tools that Joseph laid aside a mob would later lift and use with anger, fear, and price to crucify God's gift. Let us, O Lord, not only hold the child who's born today, but charged with faith may we be bold to follow in his way.

Wife went grocery shopping yesterday, and between the "viscous" cart people, moms with 3 screamy kids taking up the whole aisle, and the usual collection of mostly grey hairs who do walk the aisle, slowly, but carrying the 4 oz cup of FREE scalding hot coffee filled to the brim, she had quite a jolly time.
I'm glad I stayed home and shoveled snow.

I've been on the town overnight, and between the lap dances and boffing, I'm exhausted, but still willing to go a couple more rounds. The Pink Pussy Cat was jumping last night, and in particular, a little hot tomato named Krystal was especially appealing.
I spent around 3K last night on champagne and dances, but it was worth every penny. Little Abe is tumescent but satisfied with my ability to provide wholesome entertainment to him and his nutty friends. Going to rest now and await Santa's gift, especially if he delivers that little Samoan chick with big hooter's. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Merry Christmas! Not much of a Christmas holiday this year as I'm working right through it (12 hour mids). Stuff happens. Anyway while scouring the bowels of Youtube I came across a beautiful version of Oh Come, Oh Come, Emmanuel by The Franz Family. I never heard of them but they are impressive. Plus the gals singing are cute as kittens (and probably still teenagers so behave).

JJ - It is subtle on a number of levels, particularly because they botched the quotes on the real oval office rug trying to attribute a quote to MLK. But there is no doubt who is responsible for "If You Like Y.." Not to get all gestalt on this, but they did put out a big plate of cookies to draw the big guy in. (Maybe Santa was trying to find the one PC in the country that actually could bring up healthcare.gov)

While in Orlando (frou frou Winter Park, to be exact), we went into Starbucks and saw a replica of a real-life pajama boi. Sitting there in the Starbucks crocheting.
Oh, and Alastair Sim's 1951 A Christmas Carol is definitely the best. Although, if it's for younger children, they may like my 2nd favorite version better...George C. Scott's.

In some cases competition is good, but I am not a fan of Repubs trying to out-RINO each other.
In most cases, I think politicians are Establishmentarians that came to government wanting to do good and most of them did quite well.

As some have mentioned before, the verminous bastard spawn of Nelson Rockefeller are so prevalent in the party, RINO should probably be applied to conservatives. Although they keep putting a conservative platform out there which they shit all over in a classic bait and switch.

You can always trust an Establishmentarian to say one thing before every election and do something different once elected.
Unfortunately, the electorate seem only to listen to what they say before the election, vote accordingly, bitch when betrayed, and then listen in the next election cycle.

I remember watching the first showing of it with Father Hate because both of us were big fans of Peanuts. At the time we thought it sucked because for whatever reason the voices didn't sound like we thought they should. Obviously it's stood the test of time because I keep coming back to it every year.

What makes them "hated," Gomez? That they aren't go-along RINO assholes like you and Scotty Centerfold? And I'll bet you dollars to donuts that the people "reaching out" to him are the bow-tied bumkissers of the Brattle Street Alert.

OT, sad news for a dear friend of mine. Her brother's daughter overdosed a year ago around Christmas and yesterday their son, who was still so distraught over losing his sister, killed himself. This poor family can't catch a break. Other than offering prayers for the family, what the heck do you say to something like this.
That kind of news is never OT.
What do you say? Nothing. Just be there for them. If they're dear friends, they need you now more than ever.

Brick-and-mortar retailers saw no signs of relief last week, as store traffic in the final week before Christmas posted the third straight week of double-digit declines, according to the most recent report from ShopperTrak.
According to the analytics firm, traffic for the week ended Dec. 22—which included the crucial final weekend before Christmas—was down 21.2 percent year over year. The first two weeks of December saw double-digit decreases, which trailed a 4 percent decline over Black Friday weekend, it said

(probably about the time I review your book for you...)
Regarding Homepath, I can't speak to that program specifically, but it looks an awful lot like the plain old vanilla mortgage I got when we bought our home.
Now it's been rumored that we were the last crop of those mortgages (getting in just before Dodd-Frank finally kicked in.)
But the basics of our mortgage were is follows:
1) 5% down.
2) 3.5% Interest.
3) No monthly PMI.
Now here's how 3 worked. Our lender paid the lump sum PMI and then tacked it on to our mortgage balance, financing it out for 30 years.
When you do the totality of the math it comes to like $32/month it added to the mortgage (a far cry from the $150 it would have been had we paid it monthly). Not exactly 0, but pretty darn close. (This means our "APY" was actually 3.67% because you calculate the APY by factoring in the total interest and fees, and this was considered a fee.)
It may not be what homepath is doing, but it looks damned similar.
We looked into a few bank owned homes during our housing hunt, they were in pretty rough shape, if you're going to lose your home you tend to stop caring for it.Posted by: tsrblke, PhD(c) No Really! at December 24, 2013 05:16 AM (GaqMa)

I love that version. Like you, I've always enjoyed every "Christmas Carol" I've seen, but the Muppet version is a lovely, lighthearted version that always makes me smile. And it helps that the music is so much fun! "One More Sleep Till Christmas" is one of my favorite songs this time of year.
I'm not fond of "Scrooged," come to think of it. But that's probably the only take on "A Christmas Carol" that I've no desire to see again.

Any group of people is gonna contain some idiots so yes, you can respect what he went through to become a SEAL without agreeing with his politics one iota. Scotty Centerfold did make good on his campaign promise not to vote for 404Care but in everything else he stabbed the Tea Party in the back with Dodd Frank being the worst example. Plus he got way too cozy with Reporting for Doody which was a complete slap in the face to the people who supported him. Scotty, like most pols, has an overly high degree of self regard.

Living on the edges of Geekdom (and constantly being told to return to exile by said group) I find and read a lot of weird stuff.
Some of it so head over heels in love with PP that it's disturbing.
I have reached a conclusion that these people tend to have some sort of parental issues. they tend to perceive they weren't loved by their mommies and daddies.
Then they pick the oddest fights with them and say "See I'm being repressed."
Liberalism is indeed a mental disorder

Hello St. Peter. Yes, I just died and found out that I'm not being admitted into heaven. Well, I was wondering why. Oh.. that. Well this group of screaming sods demanded that I not perform for a Catholic group and I went with them over my religion. Oh there is an issue with that. Any advice on what I should do now? Dress for really warm weather. Oh...alright thanks.

Absolutely. I've never been one for ballet -- a little goes a long way -- but when it came to watching "The Nutcracker" every year, I couldn't look away.
Of course, it helped that Baryshnikov himself was pretty easy on the eyes, even to a little girl.
And Gelsey Kirkland as Clara was GORGEOUS; the perfect fairy tale princess. Too bad her offstage life was such a shambles.

But for sake of all that's holy, a onsey and an ironic quirk of perfectly waxed eyebrows in bemusement are not on that fucking list you pussy-assed hipster. Get a fucking job that actually does something instead of suckling at the public teat*** by way of your 'non-profit' 'employer'. Asshole.

Merry Christmas all y'all!
One more trip to the grocery store this morning. Went to the mall last night and searched in vain for affordable (under $25) women's gloves for my daughter. It was a horror worse than any zombie flick.
The JCP creatures just drop onto the floor any and all merchandise they look at but choose not to buy. Was informed by a haughty Dillard's matron that they don't sell Isotoner gloves. Like I had asked her did they sell Duck Commander t-shirts. After reforming my request she did casually wave her hand over to an area where they did sell fine ladies leather gloves. Three left and all north of $50. Fashion gloves, not warmth gloves. Sears, the bastion of middle class, was eerily empty of shoppers. No, the bored clerk said, we don't sell ANY ladies gloves here. None, nada, zip. Hmmm, there might be a connection if I could just figure it out.
Saw many yutes with saggin' britches. Wanted to pants one that was particularly low saggin' and then laugh at the dude saying, "If you kept yer britches pulled up normal like you could catch this jolly old fat man."
Got home and found everything she wants at a reasonable price on LandsEnd. Goodby brick-and-mortar mall, forever.

Are you kidding? Unless they're going to invite me to be a complete parasite, I cannot afford anything they have to offer. Every spare cent I have goes to paying down my debt in hopes I won't be destroyed when something like an expensive car repair comes along as it inevitably well.
It remains to be seen how the IRS is going to enforce this as there appears to be a great lack of definition there.
Instead of imposing new bullshit on us, it would be better to go to the UN and suggest the rest of the world start paying their fair share for the cost of newly developed drugs that Americans pay excessively for because we're the only nation on the planet that recognizes the need of the companies to recoup their investment and turn a profit while the patent lasts. Without that, all new drug development slows to a crawl.
One of my blood pressure meds is still under patent. It is a significant improvement over what it replaced but costs nearly $80 a month. If the UK and Europe were to pay as we do, my cost would be cut in half as the market would be spread over more double the number of patients. The way we in the US are footing the bill for the rest of the world is one of the severely under-reported stories of the day.
I can only hope I continue to lose weight and eventually no longer need the blood pressure meds.

Anyway, I don't think the military or useful folks are suckling. But it seems when one criticizes government employees someone inevitably points out the military, et al, and I tried to exclude those from my rant. Apologies to anyone if I wasn't clear enough.

Although. to be fair, it does note that Texas law would override any 'turn off the machines' designations in the case of pregnancy.

.Not sure the EMT's would ask if she had a DNR if her husband was giving her mouth to mouth when they got there.

OTOH, she is making a Chocolate Roulade for my (belated) birthday cake, and made a huge batch of triple-chocolate chip cookies.Posted by: AllenG (DedicatedTenther) Ah, F It. at December 24, 2013 07:09 AM (PYAXX)

They would not. You don't stop once you start until someone with a more authority tells you to stop.

Merry Christmas to all as it's Christmas Day in Sydney in the land Down Under
It's way past 3am and I can't sleep - this time of the year makes me wish I still had my lovely parents with me
Then again, my son is visiting from interstate, and later today I see my daughter, her hubby and my gorgeous grandson plus my stepdaughter's new son...so all will be good
No heatwave here today - a pleasant 25C forecast
BTW I just love NORADs Santa Tracker - what a great concept!

And Maxxed Creditcards, thank you for the compliments. I felt the need to clarify 'sobriety' because, well, frankly the Horde takes a certain bleary pride in staggering through life boozy, armed, and belligerent and I didn't want them to take it the wrong way.

Merry Christmas to all the acids, sulfuric, hydrochloric, tartaric and my special favorite, boric, who is useful in so very many ways.

When we eventually got it on DVD, it had both the theatrical version and an extended version available on the disk. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the musical number was not part of the theatrical release. I assume it's in the extended version, but I haven't bothered to check (I'd rather just forget about that song entirely).

Years ago Peter, Christopher Hitchens' smarter conservative brother was debating the sib on Cspan and spoke of the modern left and its pagan infertility cult celebrating their orgy of non-reproductive sex at their highest shrine, the abortion clinic. I believe he thought this was hyperbole.
