Merry Christmas to everyone in the world who is Christian, and to others who celebrate it — just for the heaven of it.

As for the rest of everybody, including Muslims, Atheists, Hindus, Buddhists, Animists, & Jews, Happy Thursday!

My mother's favorite soap. She used to say that it's been on TV as long I've been alive (it premiered about a week before I did).
“Days of our Lives” premiered on NBC on November 8, 1965.
