...in my best George Bailey voice...

"Merry Christmas, you old Building & Loan!"

Happy Holidays to everyone on the BB! May your Polk Bros. Santa Claus provide eternal light each and every holiday and all year long!

Also, I heard Christmas was fixed this year...Rudolph never even finished the race. It was Dasher and Dancer in a photo finish for first with Prancer and Vixen in a photo finish for third. Stewards are telling everybody to hold their tickets until they can determine the parimutuel pool for all of the gimmick bets.

If they find a reindeer head in the bed of a movie producer, and Will Ferrell appears in another Christmas movie, I would suspect foul play.

And if I had a favorite Christmas song, it would be from The Tom Waits Christmas Album -- A December 25th of Bourbon in my Stocking. And the song would be titled Gingerbread Soused. Or maybe Christmas Eve With A Waitress...I'm not sure.
