Santa Just Visited
Santa just visited and I couldn’t help but notice that he was 20 minutes early. I was tracking him on NORAD… and he was in Pittsburgh. It is a well known fact Santa is a Steeler fan. Anyway, his next stop was Columbus, OH. In between cities, he stopped at my house and, being redneck and all, I left him some cold beer and deviled eggs. Hopefully he left me some good stuff. You can even see Lisbon in the upper left corner.
In the process of writing this, Santa visited Connecticut. So all my friends back there, Santa didn’t forget about you.
My friend Crystal pointed out to me that Santa missed all of Egypt and skipped Brazil too. Does anyone know why?
24 Hours Of The Christmas Story
My father and I are big fans of The Christmas Story. It is a tradition for us to watch it as much as we can. What usually ends up happening is we watch the whole movie over a span of the 24 hours. 15 minutes here, 20 there… but they time Christmas is over, we’ve seen the entire thing.
Last year I got the chance to go to the actual house the movie was filmed in. The house is in a suburb of Cleveland. and still in the exact condition as it is in the movie. I got to see the bathroom Ralphy ate the soap in and decoded the secret Orphan Annie message, the kitchen the family shared dinner in, and even the living room with the leg lamp (Fra-gi-le… must be Italian).
This is one Christmas tradition that will never grow old.
Side note: Josh Groban’s Christmas album is the 9th most popular Christmas album of all-time. It came out last year!!! Go get em Josh! Grobanites for life…
