Was either tied for 2nd or 3rd in STLB's BIG MONEY NFL Pick-em contest....until yesterday. FML. I hate you, Dallas, KC, San Diego, Washington, Rex Ryan and Tim Tebow. No Merry Crimmuses to you! 
Just watched the Todd Marinovich story on ESPN 30 for 30. I highly recommend this one. The ending surprised the hell out of me.
No kids. Heading over the parents house to play non-cheating Scrabble. Then off to the swanky Allison Inn and Spa. Gathering my books for the overnight trip, I have "The Big Short", the next book in the Stieg Larson Trilogy and the book on Gettysburg I've been slugging through since June. I'm on page 125.
At this rate, I'll finish it in more time than it took to wage the entire Civil War.
Also throwing some magic brownies in the cooler with some mid-tier champagne and a few Widmer Rotator IPAs. I'll be damned if I'm going to pay fancy resort prices for booze all day/night/morning/afternoon long.

Does it require a SARS mask, duct tape and a detachment from reality?

Lease would be my way to go on one of these. Fun rides, no doubt about it.Wife and I leased a beamer for three years when we were young and foolish. It was probably a waste of money but oh my god it was so awesome.'General Malaise said:Most of the BMW owners I've known in life would never get another. Maintenance is a real expensive beyotch with these things. Oil changes are more expensive and god help you when it's in the shop. For the money, I'd look at other luxury lines. Lexus, Acura, Infinti...they tend to grade out higher in consumer reviews/ownership loyalty. But sometimes, a guy just has to have a Beamer.'Keys Myaths said:

How odd. She wanna join us for dinner? We're fixing dinner for the weird people around the corner that I think might either torture and kill us or want to have some sort of wife swap thing. I'm not sure which would be worse.Yeah, she probably doesn't want to join us.Too bad she wasn't here a day earlier--we had a rocking Christmas Eve dinner we could have taken her to.

Merry Christmas GMTAN! I feel so very behind on this thread that, rather than thipple it, I am going to do this randons shot style.
[*]Mac>I think a fingermitten would just be a glove. But I like where your head is at, and congrats on finding someone a lot nicer than your parents.
[*]Imp>sorry I wasn't around that night. Feel free to IM me whenever. Hope you are okay.
[*]Realized at Christmas this year that my father is absolutely baffled by recycling. I stopped him from throwing out a gift box, whereupon the following colloquy transpired:
Dad: what, do you want to save it?
Me: no, put it in that bin, though.
Dad: that's for bottles and cans.
Me: no, it's for anything recyclable.
Dad:
places give you money back for these?
Me: no, but they recycle them.
Dad: :headexplode:
[*]I got an extra GMTAN SS box o stuff, and if I could combine these two guys -
and , that was me. It made me laugh, but I don't get why I ought to get three aerosol febrezes, three car febrezes, three febreze candle canopies, three bags of Cascade dishwasher pellets, a febreze soy candle and a Guster sticker, but if I ever want my house to smell like the back of an NYC cab, I am golden. I thought the Guster sticker might be a calling card for our Guster, but the address is approximately 52 states away. So I'm shuked there.
[*]I texted some of you that my uncle called ahead to my house for Christmas dinner to make sure that I had a full bottle of Skyy for him (I did), and predicted that it would mean a good day. He didn't disappoint. Pretty sure the highlight was when my mother (his sister) was going on and on about mass and how beautiful it was. Now my mom goes to church like three times a week, and my uncle is a retired psychologist who drinks and gets high every day, and I never realized how much he is like Arthur from that early 80s movie, called Arthur, until one of you posted a clip of it the other day. Whereupon, the following colloquy transpired:
Uncle: [holding a vodka rocks in one hand and Miller Lite in the other] Now Janice, all this talk of church during the Christmas season reminds me of a question I've always had.
Mom: [excited that her substance-using/abusing brother finally wants to talk about "the reason for the season"] Oh, okay, what is it?
Uncle: Did the Corinthians ever write back?
Cue uproarious Arthur laughter by my uncle. Others chuckle but stifle because they know better. My mother and some other hens shoot my uncle a look. Sure enough, he looks around with shoulders shrugged (nearly spilling both drinks in the process), "no honestly, I don't know, did they? HAHAHAAHA! We wrote them all those letters, did they ever write us back? HAHAHAHA!
[*]I loved Zooks' poem, but was mildly put off that he's trying to make me known as the guy who texts pictures of breasts. Then I realized it was better than being the George Burns of GMTAN.
All in all a lovely Christmas. Good food and drink, good times, and now I'm walking to the pub in the first snowfall of the year. Cheers!

I had one of my friends give me a reco for Nosh, hope that's ok for you - I think you're more of a dive bar guy than hipster restaurant, but I've heard good things about Nosh. If it's not your thing, I'll totally replace it with another place for you.
