The Rice Krisipies snowman kit is awesome, I’ve made it with my kids and they love it. I wish the company well that produced this.

I was just wondering though, how you can say such irrational things like, “I assume it’s been poisoned”? What are you doing shopping in Toys ‘R’ Us anyway? From your blog (which my son reads), I don’t get the impression that you have children… perhaps we should notify Toys ‘R’ Us.

Coming in a little late because I didn’t have a comp. for a while- but I have to answer this. Have to.

When I started seeing other people’s christmas trees when I was little, I wondered why they didn’t have Satan on their tree. No joke. All my life, the devil has dangled from the bottom of our christmas tree. Angels at the top, and this awesome little handmade Mexican tin devil went at the bottom. Did not realize it was weird until I mentioned it to people.

I got a Chia one year for Christmas. It actually grew.

Weird XMAS traditions:

Ever since it hit home video, my youngest sister and I have watched Jurassic Park as an XMAS movie, usually on XMAS eve. This year I don’t think it’ll happen because we’re about seven states away from each other, but I might fire it up just to watch on my own.

I also love to read the XE Advent Calendar (when it’s actually being done; did you ever finish last year’s?) with family and friends. We’ll all discuss the latest escapades of Waiterbot, Mista Snowman, Kuse, and the gang over some eggnog and XMAS cheer.

Thank you for the drinking game idea undeadhead. I’m definitely going to try that.

There’s a drinking game in the Blu-ray of Super Troopers. My wife and I tried it once and we were thrashed by the end of the movie. Gotta love the booze.

Hmmm, Odd Xmas Traditions. Every December I try and hammer through an old Stephen King novel. I take public transit to work so there is lots of reading time available.

80s Cartoons are a must but that doesn’t deviate to far from most XErs.
