A bunch of kids are hanging out talking about what they’re getting for Xmas.
One kid says “I’m getting a bike!” The other kids say “How do you know that?” The kid says, “I saw my Mom hiding it in the basement!”
Another kid says “I’m getting an X-Box!” The others say “How do you know?” The kid says “I heard my Dad talking about it on the phone. He hid it in the attic!”
A third kid says “I’m getting a bike, too!” The other kids say “Oh, you know that because you know where your parents hid it, right?” The kid says Yeah! It’s in my Dad’s pants!”
The other kids are like, “It’s in your Dad’s pants?!?!?”
The kids says, “Yeah! When I asked my Dad for a bike for Xmas, he grabbed his crotch and said, “I got your bike right here.”
Does anyone know where I can get a Gregorian (western) calendar that hangs on the wall showing a month at a time but w/ months & days in Mandarin?
I like the car commercilas where they highlight the overindulgence and overspending of the season with one family’s personal santa, another with a real reindeer and, the funniest, the guy with the 1960s post-modern elaborate gingerbread house!!!!!!

I think someone needs to make a movie telling the story of The Grinch Who Stole Christmas from the grinch’s perspective. The people in the town should be portrayed as selfish, self-absorbed backstabbers who give lavish Christmas presents to government officials to win government contracts. The grinch should be portrayed as a selfless moralist fighting against corruption and injustice. Obviously he dumps the presents off the cliff at the end instead of bringing them back to the fat little selfish children of the town.
In our family Santa wrapped his presents in white tissue because he hadn’t time for fancy wrap. We never got presents from my mother (a widow) but never noticed that until she mentioned it when we were adults. I knew there had to be a Santa because she couldn’t afford all the stuff we got.
Kids should have Santa, tooth Fairy, Easter Bunny, leprechauns on St. Paddy’s day – it’s magic & fun.
biff,
Did you know they have semi-pro Hockey games at Aviator Sports in Floyd Bennett Field? The Brooklyn Aces.
They’re pretty exciting and they always have stuff to get the kids involved like giveaways and shots at the net.
