There are times when you forget that, Steve-o, aka Mr. Vegas, is a PhD-holdin', professor of political science.

This wouldn't be one of them.

Except for one guy I know who actually gets paid for that job. He seems to be a wee bit focused on how bad the Eagles are this year, rather than doing his actual job. Because if he was doing his job, we'd already have dearest Jonathan's critique of the latest Barney and Miss Beazley Christmas Video. (It's on the right hand side)

He had such valid criticism last year. But Jonathan hasn't produced a review yet and I'm just waiting with bated breath to hear what he has to say.

As far as this year's entry is concerned, well, Barney seems a wee bit edgy and I think that might have improved his performance over last year's entry. One wonders if his performance might catch the eye of the academy, but really, that's always a crap shoot, isn't it? Miss Beazley, however, doesn't really add much to the whole shebang. In fact, well, I much prefer the stuffed Miss Beazley of last year (there was a stuffed Miss Beazley last year, right? Don't tell me that was the egg nog talking. Please.) than the real one. Too much of a prima donna for my tastes.

But that's just me and my inexpert opinion. We'll have to wait and see what our friendly neighborhood pro critic, Jonathan, has to say.

It's supposed to get up to 17 degrees today, and if it chooses to do so, well, I might actually leave the house for the first time since Sunday.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled programming.

UPDATE: Because, after sub-zero temperatures, 17 degrees is quite balmy. I know this because I live in Minnesota, where you, too, can gain the experience to tell the difference between ten below zero and twenty below zero without looking at a thermometer.

Have you ever wanted to take panoramic photographs, but you didn't want to buy a Kodak Advantix (can you even do that anymore?) or a 70mm camera that cost thousands of dollars?

You have?

Well, it's your lucky day, my devoted Cake Eater Readers, because I have a tool for you! It's called AutoStitch and if you load a bunch of photos into it, it will stitch them into a panoramic shot.

Take a look at their gallery page to see what you can do with it.

Mom, you should not take the jump. more...

Update: Brought to you by Texxon. Life goes on. And Texxon is there. Because Buckwheat would have wanted it that way.

Update 2: Yeah, I'm still on cold medication. Why do you ask?

2 Margi darling, I hate to do this to you, dear, but you're---ahem---knocked up. You can't have what I'm having. It wouldn't be good for the baby.

Chad is just so wrong about me. Yet, somehow, I'll manage to show up and drink a few with him and the rest of the gang.

Because I'm a lush that way and I need to get out more often anyways and this is as good an excuse as any other.

If you're in the Twin Cities, mark your calendar accordingly. However, you'll want to mark it on the 17th, not the 18th, because the 18th is a Sunday and I'm pretty sure Chad goofed up with the dates and I feel like pointing it out since he said I might bite.
