Wow, what a great Christmas Eve/Christmas!

The kids got here early afternoon and we were still talking/partying 12 hours later. I was totally spoiled with everything on my list PLUS a bunch of neat stuff. A Keurig coffee maker with a YUUUGE selection of coffees, teas and hot chocolate, a cool fountain pen, CU Flag (out front on game days) and long-sleeved tee, smoked salmon, (several varieties), and a bunch of beer, which is a YUUUGE selection of Scottish ales, led by McEwans, some 16 oz bombers and Nates home brew, plus some pix from our Yellowstone trip in some beautiful frames AND tix to see Joe Walsh and Tom Petty at Red Rocks (we're ALL going) on May 30th.


 Throw in a bunch of amazing snacks and holiday drinks and it was a Christmas to remember.
I think the kids liked their generators, for the next power outage, (which is WHEN, not IF), and Ted and Kari won't have to melt their microwave trying to warm the house from the gas stove. I know Piper liked her American Girl doll, Lea and she's working on her magic tricks.
Then, just to make it special, it started snowing this morning, so we will have a white Christmas.
Life is GOOD, GREAT!

Because I'm sorta stuck in an Anti-Bush rant.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D99NHb6B03s Can you imagine all those rapper stars with these things? Of course, they'd have to have theirs with 'da bling! Can't be standard, gawd no! And of course, Britney's gotta have one in her car. Paris with her pooch totin' one on the red carpet at some fete. The boys in 'da hood will have a field day on their daily drive bys. P Diddy will wear his on a chain around his neck. You suppose there will be special pockets made in jeans for these things? Trailer trash folks will have 'em camouflaged. Jeff Foxworthy will have to come up with some fresh Redneck stuff. Think George W. will get one, each for the twins? Don't forget Dickie boy for those spur of the moment huntin' trips. Of course Ma Babs will have hers with pearls. Think it will affect the Royals? I can imagine Charles and Camilia on their fox hunt...........ah yes, and Prince Philip, too, must include the...

You think the Repub brand is tarnished now?

Just wait 'til Bonehead leads us all over the cliff, to save his 2% buddies having to pay a little higher tax. The Pubs keep thinking the American public is stupid, and they can get away with their phony political crap. They keep forgetting we're not all a bunch of FOXNews sheep, who'll swallow whatever swill is shoveled to them. A once proud party, like a beast in it's death throes, striking out to harm whatever's close, threatening to shut the gov't down, (again), over the debt limit, which is just paying the bills they already ran up. Political hacks, pretending to be patriots. So sad...

Great 'bargains' at the local Sprouts store

where we picked up asparagus and baby back ribs. Carol and I went for the same stuff (serarately, today), cuz it is so good, AND a great price. Had it for dinner tonight. WOW. One of my fav dinners, as the ribs start out in the crock pot, then finish on the grill, with fresh asparagus. (and bread pudding for dessert) I LOVE this time of year...
