Please share something from your Christmas childhood stocking of memories


The best gift I ever got was a James Bond utility brief case

with a knife that shot out the side at the touch of a button.

Inside was a slick pistol, with a stock, scope, butt and rifle barrel

for those assassination fantasies







When I was 13 I got a minibike,

you know a 50cc squat two wheeled go machine


At 13 1/2 I got a week in the hospital

when like Evil Kneivel I didn't clear the gorge

that ran through the woods a little ways from my house








To my friends here at SG, much love

much love


You sure did treat me right




Treat yourself to Elvis in leather, no lipsyncing required or desired

mmmmmmmm, Elvis. I seriously adore Elvis.

Christmas is not my best time, but this year was ok. I hope yours was wonderful!

I haven't followed the pros since I stopped playing that game, basically. I watch socially, of course, if it's on somewhere, I follow along. But I have no idea who the players are or how the teams are doing. The game itself is tolerable, even absorbing if the play is good, but the inane commentary, giant whooshing logos, and idiotic commercials for beer and trucks and sports drinks get on my nerves royally.

We used to watch Ohio State football at our house, but then OSU cut a deal with cable, which we don't have, so the games aren't available for the most part. I have realized I don't miss them, at all.

For a while I was listening to the Cavs basketball on radio. This was a few years ago, when they'd interrupt the local Air America to play the games. This was at the beginning of LeBron (sic?) James' career, and I had major sloth issues then, so a lot of the time I'd just lie around listening. That was ok, but then I got busy and forgot about that.

There are also Reds games, and baseball is easy to listen to while you're getting shit done, or to watch if you're trying to fall asleep while drinking beer, but the Reds have sucked so bad for so long, that's not fun anymore, either. So basically, no sports here.

How about you? Tuned constantly to ESPN, I'll bet (har).
