As the proud owner of about 1,200 Marvel comic books from the 1963 to 1970 era.... absolutely LOVE IT!!

Thanks, Smith 1776!

In something totally unrelated and non-political....

Mass email from university IT today. It warned of an increase in phishing attacks - which you'd have to be living under a rock not to know about. But, this was the best part:

"Please click here for additional information on how to protect yourself and your team from falling for phishing attacks."

with the words "click here" as a hyperlink.

I just about fell off my chair laughing.

My leftist thought for the day:

I'm all for political correctness .... but I don't think anyone in politics qualifies.


My righteous thought for the day:

Merry Christmas everyone, may the blessings of Jesus give you peace, comfort, and joy!


Another leftist thought for the day:

Do you know Christmas is derived from the Latin for Christ's body? I wonder how long it will take to get the word Christmas banned from general use?

My leftist thought for today..

What does a fat bearded man in a red suit driving a reindeer powered sleigh carrying presents built by slave elves locked away in the north poll that then get delivered by committing felony break in through the chimney have to do with the birth of Jesus?

Santa?

v 1.0

[doodle]

In Europe it's a bit different..it's the Christ child that delivers presents on Christmas eve...santa is saint nicholas...different day. He's followed around by Krampus that beat the shit out of you with sticks. Quite scary when you're a kid...even as adult it's creepy.

Oh Lordy...so now Santa is racist???

TV watching now is getting really tiresome, with all the political correctness being imposed on otherwise good storylines. Definitely best to stick to old reruns. On the other hand, if you're a black person aspiring to be an actor, most definitely Hollywood is begging to hire you.

Twas the Puritans who banned Christmas celebrations due to Pagan associations (and the excessive merry making).

That cartoon kind of reminds me when people complain that the stock market must currently be overvalued since it's at an all-time high.

If you look at a historical chart of the stock market over many decades, it's hitting an all-time high a significant portion of the time. Because it trends upward over time.

I’m working Boxing Day today...

Praaaaay for meeee!!!

Testing, testing...

This is a test to see if I can post twice in succession.
Last night I ate at the oldest steak house in Houston.

I will wait one minute and then try another post. If you don't see it, something is broken.

[Mark Leavy]

I had a delicious piece of prime rib at Brennans in Katy (West Houston)

Edit: Looks like it worked.

Is Sonny Looks still open? Used to be a great steak place. How about the Red Lion?

I left Houston in late 1974, perhaps just a little has changed since then.

I don't know my way around Houston that well - and I'm only here for another day. I'll definitely look for it though.
Thanks.

i’m watching Forensic Files here and there and thinking please stay away from that head-butting girl forever, Mr Smith*. I have a strong feeling that she’s going to end up in jail, for violence.

(This would make a great song title).

Headbutting girl and I are officially no longer friends on social media nor are we texting.
