Happy Christmas, y'all!

If You Only Watch One Internet Movie This Year...

I'm sure my feelings towards sampling, music videos, and possibly even crazy-dancing-in-public videos are pretty clear, but there's a dance movie set entirely to the music of Girl Talk called Girl Walk // All Day that is the best thing ever. You can watch the whole thing online at their website, but I posted the first chapter below.

Sorry Hitch, God IS Great

GOULET!

Tim is joining soon, so you all should get in on the action.  Cory and I have it set on 3 days to return a move, but you can make it less or more time.  It has been a lot of fun.  We should do Words with Friends or something else too, for the chess-averse.  

I wish there was a better Settlers of Catan application (supposedly they're working on an iPad version) but if anybody wants to download the playcatan.com program, I'd love to play with you and the random Canadians and Dutch kids who use that.  It is unfortunately in real-time, but it can move pretty briskly, especially in 3-person games.  I can't tell you how satisfying it is to beat Germans at their own game.  And if nothing else, the graphics will make you miss the days of Windows 95:

Help Steph make/win the playoffs!

Q. Was picking up MJD *and* Pierre Garcon a reasonable gamble moving into the postseason?

Any advice moving forward would be greatly appreciated.  She is winning our division but just the fourth best team right now and the guy on the bubble behind her is just 1 game back.  She definitely needs a TE now that Gronk, her MVP, is down for the next few weeks at least.  Clearly dropping the kicker to add either Brandon Myers or Kyle Rudolph unless anyone has any better ideas.
