No relation, although my dad did pitch in the minors for the Yankees.

My dad was a catcher in the minors for the Indians.

Neil Tyson is awesome, even if he and I disagree. Smart, funny, respectful. Definitely worth a follow on twitter if you're into that sort of thing.

Merry Christmas my friend. I hope you get a chance to come by while in town.

I also want in on this.

Blew out his knee playing pick-up hoops and since knee surgery wasn't sophisticated and money wasn't crazy back then said screw it, I'll just be a teacher. Given that's he's a lefty we should probably have :boatloads: right now.

I'm feeling nearly orgasmic to be home. Christmas is great and all but it's freaking draining. We've had 4 straight days of parties and family functions and traveling and food and booze and running around and general busy-ness.

#### I have to go back to work tomarrow. Time for another beer.

Hope everyone's Christmas was merry.

I'm actually excited to go to work tomorrow. I'll probably get in around 9, duck out to the gym for an hour and a half around lunch and leave by 3 and it counts as a full day

Thanks. And this is after having the last 3 weeks off for daddy day care too. I will probably stab the first person that comes into my office

Figuring out what our schedule is today and tomorrow. Will let you know.

2. After dinner, we were cleaning up and Dad - who, by this point, doesn't know exactly who my brother & I are and gets confused when his routine is altered - asked me how long a drive I had. "Two and a half hours, but I'm staying here tonight if that's ok". "If my wife says it's ok with her, it's ok with me. But you can drive there tonight just as quick as you can tomorrow".

 

[Disco Stu]

Does that mean he's getting married again or having another kid?Congrats, either way.

Oh, just the first one. She unwrapped the proposal today at my mom's house. On the bright side, the ring I used is extremely Tanner-friendly.

 

[Mr. Pickles]

CZ?

 

[proninja]

CZ?

Moissanite: the classy man's fake diamond

 

[shuke]

Congrats Stu!

 

[Disco Stu]

CZ?

Yeah, probably just temporary. I intended it to be the "stunt ring". Looks pretty good though. May need to rent Blood Diamond this week.

 

[Tremendous Upside]

See if SLB has any of his wife's rings he'd be willing to part with

 

[Uruk-Hai]

@neiltyson: To all Christians of the world: "Merry Christmas." To Jews, Muslims, & everybody else not expecting Santa: "Happy Tuesday."

@neiltyson: Actually, since days of the week are named for Gods, I instead bid "Happy Day 359" to all Atheists & Agnostics of the world.

Don't have a clue who @neiltyson is, but why send this crap out? What does he hope to accomplish? I'm a (completely) lapsed Christian who loves Christmas - not for religeous reasons, but for all of the hokey stuff that I shouldn't at 50 years old.Hey Neil: throw me in the Atheist/Agnostic bunch and I'm still wishing everyone I come in contact with a "Merry Christmas". Screw you and your theocratic politics.

Sorry to 'ninja and our other resident believers, but this kind of stuff is part of the problem IMO.

It's really not hard to be nice to people (or keep your mouth shut if you have no heart).

Anyway - sorry for getting all serious. Carry on, all.

I think we both misinterpreted. Being old and all and forgetting who this awesome guy is.And to top it off, I think he went to Degrasse High

My link

Oops. Sorry for misinterpreting guys. I thought he might be some Westboro-type.

 

[Uruk-Hai]

Congrats Stu!

[belljr]

merry Christmas to everyone..... for you music people. We may have dropped the ball a little. We bought my daughter and Junior Drum set. Which she loved but there is one small problem. It was a "whim" and we didn't want to break the bank so it is one of the sets that have a Bass, Snair, 1 tom, high-hat and 1 cymbal. This thing here The plan is she wants to take lessons (she is 7) if that goes well maybe expand, she already asked where the other drums were

So is it easy to get the other 2 toms? Can I get a bracket to hold 2 toms?

Oh, just the first one. She unwrapped the proposal today at my mom's house. On the bright side, the ring I used is extremely Tanner-friendly.

It only works half the year?

Went to fill up at the gas station here in N. Florida off the Interstate and saw plates from Montana, Pennsylvania, and Texas all at your run of the mill Shell station. (Not one of those truck stops with 72 pumps).

Stu decided to become a poor dumb ******* again for Christmas. Surprise to all other than Stu Jr.

I was going to propose if you weren't. Congrats GB!

See if SLB has any of his wife's rings he'd be willing to part with

My wife was showing her "new" jewelry off yesterday but had to leave her wedding ring at home because she didn't have room to wear it. The other yentas were all complaining about how their husbands weren't as thoughtful as me with their gifts.

I got some more stuff from Sofa yesterday. You really shouldn't have GB. In the package was a nice shirt, some gel for bald guys and best of all, a Brenda Warner autobiography. She actually looks pretty hot on the cover. May have to incorporate this somehow.

LMFAO

She pretty much hates me the way it is.

Hope GM survived his flight with only the need for a few airplane bottles.

My dad was kind enough to drive us to the airport, but because he's approaching Tanner's age and because he has some certain anxieties about flight travel (whether or not it is him flying is irrelevant, he insists that anybody boarding an airplane arrive a minimum of 2 hours before their flight departs) he picked us up FOUR HOURS before our flight and dropped us off. So after checking our bags alone at Delta and before sailing through a COMPLETELY empty security line (never seen that before) we had over 3 hours to kill in an airport that was deader than Homer's liver. Thankfully there was one bar open (Rogue Nation - HI!) and so we camped out at a table and enjoyed some fine craft session beers (or Sprites). Delta was kind enough to sit us all together in one row, taking up 4 seats in a block right in front of the emergency exit row. Guess what that means! No reclining seats. Sleeping was nearly impossible. I tried every position in the book and half the ones in the Karma Sutra. If I got 20 winks total it was all I got. Thankfully, baby Hazel slept most of the way and was quiet. Kellen, however, read the bulk of his Harry Potter book until I forced him to turn off his spot light so his neighbors could sleep. He stayed up all night. And now, here we sit in Lake Orion, Michigan. I just looked outside and there is all this white rain coming down in sheets. Not sure what this is, so will have to investigate and report back. Better start drinking.
