CHRISTMAS EVE

Click on the title of the post to watch NORAD track Santa. Dick Cheney once ordered the Air Force to shoot down Santa when he squawked the wrong frequency when approaching Washington, DC. Thankfully the President overrode the order.


POPE IN "INCIDENT". UPDATE: POPE KNOCKED DOWN- woman assailant tried to attack him a year ago. Swiss Guards asleep at the switch. NY Times coverage here.

There was an "incident" at St. Peters today as the Pope began to celebrate mass. The Pope is OK. More on this as it becomes available.





Not a bad place to hike, eh?

MERRY CHRISTMAS

  2. The Captain Reports:

    AP is reporting .......

    (AP) -- A woman jumped the barriers in St. Peter's Basilica and knocked down Pope Benedict XVI as he walked down the main aisle to begin Christmas Eve Mass on Thursday, a Vatican spokesman said.

    The Rev. Ciro Benedettini said the 82-year-old pope quickly got up and was unhurt. As the pope's procession was making its way toward the main altar gasps rang out through the public and a commotion could be seen among the clergymen surrounding Benedict. The procession came to a halt and bodyguards rushed to the trouble spot.

    Cap Out ....

  3. None of the "Fakes" are funny; none are clever. In particular, anything connected with "Shumie" is pathetic.
    Go away.
    Merry Christmas to everyone else.

  4. Merry Christmas from one of the regular participants on vacation far from Miami.

    So, why every year does some judge have to set hearings all next week? (Fred S).

    (This is a blog tradition)

    Twas late afternoon near christmas
    and all through the firm
    not a lawyer was working, the paralegals were gone.

    The files were hung by the cabinets with care
    Without any hope that Shumie would be there.

    The partners were nestled all snug at the bar
    while visions of bills paid were viewed from afar

    When out in the parking lot there arose such a clatter
    I sprang from table to see what was the matter
    Away to the window I flew like a flash
    and bowled over a secretary and tore her red sash.

    When, what to my wondering eyes should appear
    but a tricked out Ford with hot rims on the rear

    With a jolly old driver not looking at all gloomy
    I knew in a moment, it must be the famous Shumie

    More rapid than eagles the drinks and food came
    and as he ate he called out by name

    more ribs, more chicken, more potatoes and pie!
    and the staff came to eat with a contented big sigh

    His eyes how they twinkled! His dimples- how merry;
    his cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry!

    He had a broad face, and not too small a belly
    that shook when he laughed like a bowl full of jelly

    He was chubby and plump, a right jolly elf and attorney

    and I laughed when I saw him, and I imagined his journey.

    From obscure lawyer
    to early -leaver of fame
    the first out the door
    the first at the game

    He finished his meal and lay a finger aside his nose
    and giving a nod, all the valets rose
    to get him his car and send him on his way
    to bring Shumie Time to more attorneys today

    And as he roared off
    I heard him chime

    Happy Christmas to all, and to all Shumie Time!!

  8. You dumbass. If you were born in Germany during Hitler's time...you think you would have a choice to join Hitler youth? It's not the f'ing boy scouts!!!!

  9. 11:23 a.m., your post doesn't even sound funny let alone intelligent. It just sounds ignorant of both, history and current events. The woman who attacked the Pope is just 25 years old. She was not even alive in Hitler times. Bigotry doesn't lead to anything good, dude.

  10. It seems to me that the Catholic Church could have easily avoided all of this controversy by simply not choosing to elect an ex-Nazi as its Supreme Leader in the first place.

  11. Hey Faux Clement Moore:

    You just proved 4:27's point. It's just pointless and wearisome.

  13. We're here mourning the resignation of Urban Meyer. But we must press on with our ho-hum football picks. Everytime we ask the gambling gods for a 4-1 week, we get 3-2. So now I'm asking for an 0-5 week. Each pick for $500.00

    Buffalo +9
    Carolina +9
    New England -9
    Pittsburgh -3
    Philadelphia -7

    35-37-3 48.61% -$2850
