BEST INTENTIONS
A lack of internet access and the Christmas season demands of three small nieces and nephews precluded finishing Part II for Wednesday. Please check back later today or, failing that, Thursday. But who am I kidding, you check back daily anyway.

I found some inside footage of the Young Republicans Christmas party this year. The link is below. Oh wait.. Those are Nazis:

Have a wonderful time with your family, and thank you for the many tears of laughter throughout the year.

@Da Moose
And you complain when someone calls you a socialist, but you call YRs nazis.
Merry Christmas Commie

"daily"?! more like hourly, unless work gets slow, in which case I might just sit there mindlessly hitting the 'refresh' button until I fall asleep.
Have fun with family; somehow the annual Orgy of the Presents (when the air is sometimes completely filled by the fountains of shredding wrapping paper) is more fun when small children are involved. My favorite present is still the time I gave a wad of wrapping paper wrapped up in something like 10 layers of wrapping paper. It was kind of a Christmas version of "turtles all the way down, Sonny!", and it was warmly received. The recipient also still remembers it, and I pay for it every Christmas. But it was worth it.
See you next year!

More like hourly.
(Unless someone were to give me a free pizza, in which case I might skip a check-in.)

1) I should have hit refresh, before posting, so I could have seen JohnR's comment.
2) DaMoose's link is weird. The majority of those Nazi's are brunettes.

BB, loving it baby. I'd rather be a commie than a corporate fascist. At least my neighbors would like me. In any case, have a Happy Generic and Neutral Holiday Time That May or May Not be Religious in Nature (not that there's anything wrong with that if it were) Celebration.

Yesterday's piece still has me busy, so this works out really well.

I'm with Davy and JohnR, at least now that classes are over for the semester. Hourly at LEAST.
For the holiday season you might want to consider upgrading to gin and cookies. Or replacing the gin with nog. Mmm, nog and tacos…

Happy Holidays to you and yours.

Merry Christmas. Make sure you take the kids to the mall to see Jesus. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OExXItDyWEY

Happy Holiday to you and yours. And, thanks for all the great posts throughout the year!

I sure do. Merry Christmas.

What everyone said. Well, most of them, anyway.

What chautauqua said. Not to be too cute about it.

Haven't any of you ever heard of RSS? Saves on the manual refreshing.

Thanks for writing the blog, Ed. This and pensionplanpuppets.com are the first sites I go to every morning: one for radical liberal rants, the other for analysis of my
favorite crappy hockey team.

@Ike – RSS lacks the awesome Communist background for the terrifying of coworkers.
