Christmas eve. We had tea and what-not, watched The Snowman, watched The Wrong Trousers, talked about the unreasonably warm humid weather and the fog. It's what you do.

First time in decades we haven't done a 6' real tree. My wife's handiwork. My 21 year old daughter made the string of stars from post-it notes.

What's happening to the country? It's getting to the point where a man can't even pay his attorney fees with hickory nuts anymore.

The 1960s TV comedy My Mother the Car is considered one of the worst and most ill-conceived shows ever committed to the small screen: A man's mother dies and is reincarnated as his car. But some very smart, funny people created this show and it's interesting to read what they were trying to do.

@kellycarlin.bsky.social Just dropping you a note to tell you about a British series you would probably like if you haven't seen it already. It's called Mum. I recall you liked The Detectorists and it's similar gentle British humor and character studies.

We should rename Chuck Schumer's Democrats The Washington Generals. They are paid to lose. I can't get that lyric out of my head from Crosby, Stills & Nash's Southern Cross, "And we never failed to fail; it was the easiest thing to do."
