Time for the annual classic (in all it’s geeky goodness!):

The Physics of Santa Claus and of course, equal time for the

Rebuttal of the physics of Santa Claus

That’s a quote from the newscaster on CSU’s 60 foot winning shot over Syracuse last night.

If only the late, family pet, Zionist Infidel Guinea Pig (a.k.a “Cappuccino”) was still around–he’d find this story to be amusing

Jerusalem Post: Palestinians: Israel uses rats against J’lem Arabs

This story is a better attempt than when they claimed that Jews were releasing pigs in the Old City. Granted, with Israel’s feral cat population, this story seems to be quite a tall tale, yet again.

The mayor of the Jersey Shore town of Belmar is under some flack for writing a satirical newsletter about the Staten Island weekend-crowd.

Upon review of the mayor’s writings versus the type of people he was referring to.

The mayor wins.

Carter gets denied entry into Gaza…

Guess that means that he won’t be building any houses there…

Red-Sox Jersey buried under the new Yankee Stadium This man, whomever he is, deserves to throw out the first pitch at Fenway Park sometime in the near future. That is in addition, to the fact that the man will never have to pay for a beer in Boston for the rest of his life.

Even more amusing is the fact that the construction worker is a Bronx native.

Baseball seems to be the one sport most closely tied with superstitions. Ones that instantly come to mind include, the Curse of The Bambino, The Cubs and the billy goat, Curse of Rocky Colavito

Heck, even in Japan, there are curses surrouding baseball: The Curse of the Colonel”

From work:

Emlpyee #1: “How is it outside?”

Employee #2: “It’s a Monday out there”

Saw two slogans while out for a walk this morning,  One was creative and amusing while the other was simply lame.

The lame one, made on someone’s home printer read: “Bill and Hill are lamer than a $3 bill…Vote Obama”

On the opposite end of the spectrum, one that probably has its origins in a Madison Ave ad firm:

“Uptown class…..Canal street prices” (Virgin Airways)

[For those who don't understand, Canal street runs through Chinatown]

A female co-worker on working with females:

“You see, the problem with working with women is that there’s two sides to them.

So an office with three women, would actually be like working with 6 women.

And when it’s that time of the cycle, it’s like 3 women, so you’d have 9…

What do you think Jaws*?

Me: Oh, you don’t even want to know what I think (runs away from desk)

Did you hear about the FedEx truck that was car-jacked in Midtown Manhattan? It happened at West 46th St and 11th Avenue in Midtown Manhattan.  I didn’t hear about it, until our FedEx account representative called us and told me about it.  Then I hit Google news, to find that stories were just coming online about it.’

It turns out that the driver was found in Greenpoint (Brooklyn) and the truck itself in Williamsburg (Brooklyn)

As it would happen, my company had about 20+ packages on that truck, most of which were corporate Christmas gifts!  So if (in the slim chance) any major individuals in the Pharmaceutical industry happen to be reading this, please note that your gift is still on it’s way…it just took a bit of a detour.

A post from my cousin’s blog, about her experience with an early morning fire drill What kind of twisted person though, holds a fire drill at 7:20AM?

The story of the pole-dancing subway riders is all over the place today (Link to video) Quite amusing to say the least–even better that it “enraged the MTA”.

Compare it to some of the other forms of “entertainment” that we have on the Subway:

–Kids selling candy…

–Crazy glue, DVDs, batteries, razors, gloves, etc.

–The singing Mexicans in their charro outfits.

–Breakdancing guys

These girls are definitely much more entertaining and creative.

Balduccis advertising hams for Hannukah Well meaning and well intended…probably.  Well thought out and considered, not so much.

Michael Savage sues CAIR Two sides of idiotarianism go at it….this should be amusing

In what is a most unlikely scenario, a Republican Senator was able to have a letter published in The Justice.

Not only that, it was a letter from Tom Coburn (R-OK), in which he argues against increased gun control

How this managed to make it into the paper, seems to be somewhat of a fluke.  Are pigs flying in Sherman? (Well, on the non-Kosher side at least?)

The NYT has a profile of Dilbert creator/author Scott Adams’ restaurant and its struggles. Say Gordon Ramsey were to come in as part of his Kitchen Nightmares show, to try to help fix things up.

What Dilbert character would Ramsey become were the story to be told in the comics?  A cross between the PHB and Catbert?
