Baby Alice, 369 days old, is somewhat puzzled as she is indoctrinated into the annual festival of crap that is Christmas. <img src="http://photos-c.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v1845/135/107/578737962/n578737962_1347770_4798.jpg"> Next year, I'll be a good greedy little American. I promise.

Cute kid - niece? It is a festival of crap though isn't it? I can't tell you how happy I am that the farce that is Hanukah or Chanukah or whatever the hell you call it - is ovah! 'Happy Hanukah! Aren't you so grateful that the oil in the temple lasted for 8 days? What a wonderful thing for our people to celebrate! Oh, by the way here is a $35 gift card from Best Buy'

Niece. Guinevere is in the foreground coaching her in the Christmas spirit. Yeah, I've got a niece name Gunievere. What of it?

I see that, in classic <i>Christmas Story</i> fashion, the Lunchables aren't beneath gobbling wine on Christmas morning while watching the kids dig into the booty.

="John Cougar Lunchbucket"]Lunchpail Jr. digging "New Giants!" I got my Godson the "Bed, Bed, Bed" book/CD by They Might Be Giants when he was around 3 or 4, I guess, and hated bedtime more than anything. Was a cool book and catchy tunes and got the kid psyched to go sleep at least once.

"annual festival of crap that is Christmas" Hey now Ebenezer, it's only a festival of crap if you let it become one! We've tried to low-key it and focus on the message a little bit more in recent years, which I agree isn't easy. We found a tree with a beautiful cross on top! And, of course, the Mets and New York themed tree in the Baseball Room.

Guinevere = French equivalent of Jennifer RealityChuck Dec 29 2008 04:36 PM Me in my Christmas Story T-Shirt. (I got a leg lamp a couple of years ago.) metirish Dec 29 2008 04:41 PM Lorcan wanted me to skip past what we were celebrating and get to the good stuff. soupcan Dec 30 2008 07:58 AM Lorcan's a pretty cute kid. RealityChuck is all about the Christmas spirit. Can't wait to see what Edgy gleans from the background of that photo. Edgy DC Dec 30 2008 08:07 AM Not touching it. Centerfield Dec 30 2008 08:07 AM Are those rabbit ears on the TV? soupcan Dec 30 2008 08:11 AM RealityChuck is Santa Claus' little brother. Benjamin Grimm Dec 30 2008 08:15 AM I think he stole Valadius' cat. metirish Dec 30 2008 08:22 AM Those rabbit ears won't work in the new year , I hope Chuck got the transformer thingy. dgwphotography Dec 30 2008 09:43 AM ="metirish":wvks4kle]Those rabbit ears won't work in the new year , I hope Chuck got the transformer thingy.[/quote:wvks4kle] Because, as we all know, they're more than meets the eye... metsmarathon Dec 30 2008 10:35 AM well, the rabbit ears will still work. but they need to be connected to the digital converter for the tv to understand whats going on, and be able to display the channels properly. RealityChuck Dec 30 2008 02:04 PM The rabbit ears are vestigal. We have cable, but they were attached to the set and couldn't be removed without breaking anything. themetfairy Dec 30 2008 02:14 PM D-Dad and I saw the ball drop in Times Square, heralding in the New Year - They'll do it all over again tomorrow night on TV. But we got a sneak peek. So far the New Year is looking pretty nice! soupcan Dec 30 2008 02:36 PM Happy 2009 brought to you by TOSHIBA TOSHIBA TOSHIBA TOSHIBA! themetfairy Dec 30 2008 02:38 PM Plus there was a little kid in a stroller who asked her father why the new year was 2007. I told the kid it would look better on TV....
