It’s No-Love-Thursday:

Thought for the Day:
Idealism is what precedes experience; cynicism is what follows.
David T. Wolf

I would like to take a moment and get into the Christmas sprit, ok who am I kidding, I meant sprits. This will be my last post for sometime, since I will be either on the road to the Great Sate of South Carolina, or passed out on the beach, with my belly full of fine food and drink. That and I plan to work toward inseminating my loving bride. To this end, I wish you the very best, this holiday.

One of many reasons I am going to Hell:
Every year, I go and spend time with family on Christmas Eve, then at around 9:00 we drive back here to River City, and stop at the Rugby Bar. Yes, the bar on Christmas Eve.

While there, we drink and eat pizza. As is the custom, they turn the TV to Midnight Mass. We sit there drink in hand and watch the Bishop do that voodoo that he do, when they start Communion, we make a mad dash for the door, drive downtown, dbl park and run in and take Communion, wave at the TV cameras (much to the entertainment of those who we leave behind at the bar) on our way out and are back at the Rugby Bar before our drinks are warm.

Your Holiday Carry-In Recipe:
Tri-State Killer Meatballs
2-3 lbs of meatballs
15-16 oz. can of sauerkraut
15-16 oz. can of whole cranberry sauce
1 bottle of chili sauce (12 oz.)
2/3 cup of brown sugar
Water – the amount you will want to use is the same as the chili sauce bottle
Cook meatballs at least 30 minutes at 250*. Mix all ingredients above in crock-pot. Let simmer at least 45-60 minutes before consumption. Don’t worry it sounds gross, but it really kicks ass.

Today’s Bill:
SONNET 41
Those petty wrongs that liberty commits,
When I am sometime absent from thy heart,
Thy beauty and thy years full well befits,
For still temptation follows where thou art.
Gentle thou art and therefore to be won,
Beauteous thou art, therefore to be assailed;
And when a woman woos, what woman's son
Will sourly leave her till she have prevailed?
Ay me! but yet thou mightest my seat forbear,
And chide try beauty and thy straying youth,
Who lead thee in their riot even there
Where thou art forced to break a twofold truth,
Hers by thy beauty tempting her to thee,
Thine, by thy beauty being false to me.

Quote of the Day:
Men are conservatives when they are least vigorous, or when they are most luxurious. They are conservatives after dinner.
Ralph Waldo Emerson, New England Reformers, 1844

Hey, no-bull-shit, Merry Christmas:
