Being lucky can always be more better than being good. And, no, I have NOT been wearing out my refresh key since midnight, awaiting the dropping of The Christmas Day Holiday Open Thread, just so that The King of Battle, THE King of FIRST could EARN him another Jewel in the Crown. Tho a twofer is always nice to have on one’s resume. Had just padded in from my cocoon and was awaiting the Cup a Joe to brew when I opened up Mr. Chromie and saw that I had a good tone and took the shot. Nice Christmas Present for The Gun Bunny.

Not as nice a Christmas Present that the world got those many years ago when The Father Himself sent the Greatest Gift the world has ever seen. A Most Joyous and Merry Birthday (Celebrated) to all of The TAH Family is wished and ‘lest we forget…May The Good Lord watch over all of our Troops in their far flung Stations that are now maintaining that Eternal Vigilance, keeping watch over the flock.

Merry Christmas CW, And of course I have to add this in.
“My Friends” were sung by the Strangers out of Fort Greene Brooklyn NYC in 1954 on the King record label.

Jesus was a good Jewish boy, y’know. Very orthodox. Even had His Bar Mitzvah in Jerusalem, it seems.

MustangCPT 1:1 – The guy who beats his swords into plowshares ends us plowing for the guy who didn’t.

I cleaned it up for the holiday.

And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.

Merry Xmas to all, and especially to those still out there on the front lines, serving our country and our fellow Americans.

A fine looking family you have there. Merry Christmas to all.

Merry Christmas to all.

And now, for your Christmas listening enjoyment, D’s Cantina brings you a relaxing musical interlude. We’re open all day, tamales are steaming and chimichangas are on the bar, all you can eat. Irish coffee, hot buttered rum, and Sam Adams are waiting! Merry Christmas, dickweeds and dickweedettes!

Sparks

Merry Christmas to my TAH family.

Eggs

Merry Christmas all! Waiting for Mrs Eggs to prep the prime rib, beers with the neighbors later (I actually scored some Yuengling for such occasions). Have a great, safe Holidaze.

Where did you find Yuengling?

Eggs

This old retired flight engineer/crew chief I worked with years ago does a big road trip cross country every summer (he’s a PA boy) and he brought back a case for us poor bastard AZ folks.

Tallwhagger

When Bud got woke Yuengling wasted no time in gearing up to fill the void. Hope you will have easier access as they enjoy their opportunity to claim a market that AB abandoned.

Good beer from America’s oldest brewery.

Eggs

They’re getting closer…

I can find the regular and light most places down my way, and Winn Dixie and a few other stores sell the Black and Tan (my personal favorite). Of course, down here there’s plenty of Abita and Shiner to go around.

Tallwhagger

They make a delicious Porter, as well.

MustangCPT

And the seasonal Yuengling Hershey’s Chocolate Porter is currently available. Good stuff and it makes a hell of an ice cream float with a scoop of a good vanilla ice cream!🍨 🍺

MustangCPT

Damn, now I gotta have me a Yuengling. Fortunately, I keep an emergency six-paquito for just such an occasion!🍺🍺🍺🍺

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, TAH!

Feliz Navidad

More like Feliz Navi-dog.
That picture reminds me of when my wife bought a little sombrero for our Chihuahua and she put it on him. He was NOT happy. He had this look in his face like, “Really? Just because I’m Mexican you gotta give me a sombrero?”

KoB

Bet he wouldn’t look like that if you gave him a tacos 🌮

Odie

Maybe this would have been more to his liking?

MustangCPT

No. As a Norteño from the state of Chihuahua, my dog would be wearing a cowboy hat; sombreros are more a central and southern Mexican thing. And that bandana “ese” thing is a no-go in my house. Plus, he has better taste in Mexican suds than that horse piss you’re showing. 🤣

It would be either Cerveza Indio or XX Amber. Both fine amber lagers from the great state of Nuevo León, remarkably similar to my beverage of choice. Especially the Indio if you can find it on tap!🍺🍺🍺

Fuck that skunky “Defe” shit (Corona).

Odie

I was looking for a cholo chihuahua and that was the best I could find.

MustangCPT

You know what I got for Christmas? A giant bill in the form of my 23 y/o HVAC system shitting the bed. The only Christmas miracle I got was 0% financing. Happy holidays and don’t any of you dare try to sign back in off of leave telephonicly.

Graybeard

I feel your pain.
Although my version is a frame repair on an F150 – the end-of-year bonus goes to someone else.
Hope things get repaired quickly, and nothing worse happens.

Odie

Maybe consider this for a Christmas present to yourself?

Comes with the factory warranty still intact.

Phil Monkress works balls.

Does he also tickle taint and tongue-punch fartboxes?🤣

Well there’s a couple mental images that can’t be unseen…..
