Of course, 'posed to get freezing this weekend with lows in the 60 degrees. Where did I store my winter coats?
Suck on that M'sieur Sean Paul..

New Tradition: Kill Your Brother for Christmas
Sounds like a great tradition, at least until you run out of brothers. To avoid me, my family left me stuck in damn nursing home because he likes my fat pig sister better than me.
But I don't plan on killing any of 'em. however.
[ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. — Orange County deputies are investigating after a man allegedly shot and killed his brother in Pine Hills on Christmas Day.
Deputies responded to the 5000 block of Altec Court at about 3 p.m. Friday.
They said the two brothers, who have not been identified, were in some kind of dispute when one opened fire.
The victim was killed, and his brother was in custody.
Family members at the scene were very shaken up, and neighbors were stunned that something like a fight led to a shooting on Christmas.
Family and friends tried to console each other as deputies worked the scene.
“I just feel for everybody around here, because I'm sure everybody's trying to enjoy this day, and that just put a damper on everything,” said resident Adolph Tolliver.] emphasis added because OMG! "Put a damper on festivities." YOU THINK!

"Merry Christmas from Chiron Beta Prime"
Almost forgot a couple of Christmas traditions: watching ourfuture robot overlords enslave us and beating penguins bloody. The latter can really fight back the savage Christmas Blues affecting me. So enjoy.

If so, then you are truly a twisted individual."

Sign of Hope for Humanity
Got back from dialysis Saturday and had big Christmas bag on my bed with gift cushy blanket and this priceless--treasured forever--Christmas card from the Grandmothers and Grandkids club of Mount Moriah church just south of my Island Hell.
If you ever wonder what to get someone in a nursing home, a blanket will always do.
Nevertheless, think the card amounts to greatest treasure of all; my bah humbug savage Christmas blues be damned.
God bless ye, one and all.

Cops: Judge and Executioner
[The mother of Amadou Diallo reeled at the news: One of the four cops who killed her unarmed son in a 41-shot fusillade is set for an NYPD promotion — and a raise.
Old wounds reopened quickly Wednesday with word of Officer Kenneth Boss’ elevation to sergeant nearly 17 years after the divisive Feb. 4, 1999, shooting of the black West African immigrant by four white cops in the Bronx.
“You have so many police officers out there who deserve to be promoted, and this man is being promoted?” a bewildered Kadiatou Diallo asked the Daily News.
“For doing what? Killing my son? I don’t have any hatred or revenge in my heart, but my life was changed forever that day. This is a stab in the heart.”
Boss, who fired five of the shots after Diallo, 22, innocently reached for his wallet in the darkness of his apartment building’s vestibule, will receive his controversial new rank Thursday.]

Americans from Tribe of Abraham Support Muslims, Protest Against Islamophobia
Since watching so much TV throws loads o' crap at me--especially local news reporting: robberies, rapes, and everyone' favorite, murder--when a profoundly positive story leaps out at ya and can change your very outlook on life in this winter of Trump.
American Jews, themselves an often reviled race, stood up for fellow Americans of Islamic faith by protesting for civil rights of Muslims.
This should end Donald Chump's buffoonery once and for all.
It won't, but I'll sleep better.

This Hanukkah, Jews across the U.S. are taking to the street to rally against the Islamophobia and racism rampant in their communities.
On each night in the eight-day-long religious holiday, Jewish activists are participating in protests against various forms of injustice in a campaign initiated by the Network Against Islamophobia, a project called for by national peace organization Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP) to challenge anti-Muslim bigotry, along with Jews Against Islamophobia, a coalition of JVP-New York and the activist group Jews Say No!
The demonstrations are being held in 15 cities throughout the country, including Chicago, Boston, Miami, Seattle, Atlanta. The first demonstration was held at New York City’s Rockefeller Center on Sunday, Dec. 6, the first night of Hanukkah. http://www.salon.com/2015/12/10/we_will_not_be_silent_american_jews_hit_the_streets_during_hanukkah_to_fight_islamophobia_racial_profiling

Blocking Downfield or Life Imitates Sports
Unseen by many so.called football fans, spectacular offensive plays often result from players doing grunt work or going beyond assignments to block downfield like Arizona receiver Larry Fitzgerald blocking a defender, knocking him on his proverbial ass.
Normally, receivers play the roles of divas afraid to get their u to that as a pancake block since the blocker lays the defender out like a pancake.niforms dirty. Larry Fitzgerald , receiver, did the grunt work depicted below. In football, we refer

The Zadroga Bill for First Responders to 11 September Tragedy
If we as a nation can ever agree on any one thing, we should all champion the Zadroga bill for health care for first responders, thos who ran through toxic clouds of debbris: pulverized metal, drywall dust, and the carcinogenic rare metals that go into computers.
It becomes a simple matter of justice. If you don't support it, you have turned your back on the values of this country. So all y'all decent people, chickenhawks, and plethora of Republican Presidential candidates, call your US Senators and Representatives and implore them to pass the Zadroga Bill.
That Republicans have filibustered the bill goes beyond despicable.
Damn their eyes!

Suggested Christmas Present.
Remember, the joy of the season lies in giving, especially to me, a poor, benighted, beggar trapped in nursing home hell. Priced at $3000, you'll find it practically a steal.

Bob: "Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues"
You know you've reached the pinnacle of success or notoriety at least when one name describes you: Bono, Mick, Charlie, etc. At least for me, Mick means Jagger and the last means Manson, but it could amount to a generational thing. So Bob means Dylan and not Dylan Thomas; "Do not go gentle into that good night/Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light."
Does that mean I can still go to a rave at my advanced age? People do find me expressing my rage well. Why keep it in and give myself ulcers? Might as well share my rage with the world.
Right now sharing Dylan, Bob.

No, not the Christmas Nutcracker Suite, but this one at Art Basel, Miami, Florida:

Why I Drink at Home
Because there we have less chance of me running into anything, especially Scotland:
My Nieces and Me
Helen on the left--grad assistant at UT, Austin--and Mary on right, senior at THE University of Florida. Suffice it too say consider them my pride and joy and a reason to keep on living.
They and the sister who still talks to me showed kindness by visiting me at Island Hell where I exist in a state of purgtory, not quite confined but unable to propel myself up the inclined driveway to escape to nearby bar.
Dang, feel some spiritous liquids in my near future but shhhh, don't tell anyone. If God made liquor to swurvive family holidays, maybe He does show some empathy (Sorry for patriarchal phrasing).
"It’s all of us versus ISIS"
During a recent short sojourn in the hospital, it became my distinct pleasure to have as a roommate a teabagging, gun toting, deport all Muslims, Obama hating el stupido grande. What he failed to realize about unfettered access to guns and ammunition in the US lies in that radical Muslims can buy weapons and loads of ammunition also, as proved by recent San Bernadino attacks. Sons a bitches perpetrators had tons of ammo. Peaceful as I am, still thought it justice 2 of the attackers got shot down in the street like the rabid and murderous dogs they acted like.
And, Chuck, my erstwhile roommate failed or lacked the intellect to realize, most Mulims revile the ilk of those barbaric bastards. And our American money obsessed media won't make clear remains the fact Isis has killes millions of Muslims over theological differences--witness the recent bombing in Beirut, Lebanon., but, "Apparently Muslims being killed by ISIS doesn’t attract enough ratings for U.S. media outlets to justify “full team” or even quarter-team coverage."
Since terrorists apparently downed a Russian jet, coordinated vicious attacks in Paris, and visited unspeakable horrors on Muslim countries by beheading Shiiites and Christians alike, we ought to have the ability to build a worldwide consensus and force able to kick some terrorst ass, Lord forgive for writing such. nevertheless, it must look like and become the civilized world fighting cruel oppressors, not have it the Western world versus Islam.
