"Today Is The 15th Day Of December In The Year Of Our Lord 2011."

"It Is Now Post Time."
We're Off.. Adeste Fidelis, latae triumphantes venita, venita  et Beeethlehemmm. Non tu vi da cha regim angelorurrrmmm. Venita, adoramus, Venita adoramussss, Venita adoramiuuuuuuusssss Doooommmminum....
Had a challenge come into the ville, that me and my friends could not sing O Come All Ye Faithful in two languages, well there is Latin.. Now, would you like to place a wager on singing it in English.. I dooonnn'ttt think so...
Hey Plain, and Jimmy McFinn jumpin in early.. McFinn thinks he is now a photographer...McFinn has no idea what he is, what day it is, or where he is at..I never thought James would wind up with Carol on a couch in a cartoon picture..sad....Gotta love the guy..
Hey Plain, question, you can't get away from the Simpleton.  I know you toads had a meeting last night at Buffalo Bills Valley View Inn.  The question is DRUM ROLL EASY.......................................................................... Why is Floyd there?? Does he have too be at every social event in the 21st ward just to get a night out.. You think maybe the iron man would go home to the iron woman onnce in awhile.. Oh yeah, then she goes out with him...LOL!!! The Big E named him right "The Iron Man."  People think I can hang.. He destroys me...I couldn't believe it in Florida, when I said you ready?? and he said he wasn't going out.. You have to understand I have been with that man since birth and never heard those words.  He told me his stomach was upset.. I immediately went upstairs and started praying...Him nor I, knew at that time that Sue packed her pills in his Meds..Guess she knew what she was doing slowed his ass down....
Back to Christmas..Decorations...remember the Angel or Star on the top of the tree.. Well my daughter believes that Minnie Mouse is her cousin or something of that nature..because if there is a bigger Disney freak I haven't met her or him.. Maybe Mrs. Eck..Nahhh..  Anyway, I buy this giant artificial tree and get a two year supply of Disney Characters, that are collectors items, I get one per month., they are Christmas tree ornaments.. Well she starts decorating this (gotta be 15ft.) tree with the Disney characters, and all the paraphernalia left from my childhood, her childhood, and I sorta just get outta the way....I leave and go back  to see how she is doing, and lo and behold it is done..and what is on top of the tree.. Minnie Mouse with Angel Wings and a white robe and an angelic look around her rodent head..Now, I ask is this a Christmas Tree or a Disney Tree?  LOL!!! I know, I know..Only Christmas.. Hey pretty good stories yesterday, bring on some more...Decorations, presents. Christmas happenings that you remember...
Let me tell the story, that Strebor alluded to the other day.. I get up this one Christmas morning about five AM and me and Strebor are staring down Fleming St.  waiting for my Mom to get home from the 5 O'clock Mass..We weren't allowed downstairs till she got home.. Well you ask, how would she know if you went down stairs?? Because the Old Boy was still sacked out in the bed, saying. Don't go down there till your mother gets home.. It never really occurred to me what he was doing home..He wasn't much on religion..Anyway Mom gets home and down we fly, and you all remember our living rooms or parlors, they weren't very big, now here is a platform taking up half the room with a tree on it and, yep, Lionel Trains, like to know where they are... He is in his official morning gear robe and bare feet..The Big E says ok son come here,  this was the first time I really looked like Marty Feldman, my eyeballs are popping out of my head..he has the switch and turns it on and this train starts around the tracks whistling and a smoking.. , I was in awe..He says you want to try it??   I still can see the red switch on the black transformer, as Butchie was now the engineer, and flipped that fucking switch as high as it would go, that train sounded like a real one, smoke was going up to the ceiling, I heard my Dad yell. SLOW IT DOWN!!!  It only made one turn, and derailed, with the locomotive, sailing into the air and then straight down onto his bare foot.. I will never forget the howwlllll!!! as long as I live, as I sprinted up the steps to hide under the bed. I saw out of the corner of my eye that he was hopping around on one foot and trying to dodge the box car and passenger car, then I saw the caboose get him.  My last words as I dove under the bed were... MERRY CHRISTMAS DAD, HOPE THAT DIDN'T HURT..............shakin like a dog shittin razor blades...

Those were the days - waiting for Mom to get home from the 5:00 Mass so we could down and see what the jolly old elf set up under the Christmas Tree. Remember them always. Other memories will always be when my kids were young and still believed in Santa. They, too, were not allowed downstairs before us. So many a Christmas morning saw us getting up very early to watch the amazement on their faces. Continued on with my wonderful grandchildren but my youngest is 10 years old this year and now no longer believes in Santa. It is still fun to get together with them all and I'm thankful that we are all still able to do this. Like I said before I totally enjoy Christmas Eve and Christmas but I could do without all the hype and greed that starts as early as September. For all those out there that want Christ out of Christmas "get an effin' life".

Ahhhhhhhhh, Plain knows the value of a good nap........You must also have a clear conscience to be able to enjoy some Cranial Down time. It is imperative to regenerate the brain cells that are used to wake up in the morning and keep you active and plan your day, Naps clear your head.....Sneaking anything is good but sneaking sleep is priceless..........It is like Fish with feet,they hardly get any sleep and look what happened to them..........ergo
