Yeah, It's a LIttle Odd

But you have to admit.

It's a pretty winter perch.

Bangor's New Year's Eve Ball

Despite disparaging news account out of State, Bangor's New Year's Even Ball is NOT a beach ball wrapped in Christmas lights and trailing a long orange extension cord after it gets tossed for the roof...

That was the first year.

Now it's one of those big exercise balls wrapped in Christmas lights and trailing a long orange extension cord after it gets tossed from the roof...

One year it was tossed by Governor Baldacci who unfortunately maintained his footing.

This New Years Eve Vicious Rumor brought to you by the Indoor New Years Eve Revelers here at The Thing of the Moment.

(Besides, if Governor Baldacci were to show up again it would be out of spirits to be screaming JUMP while everyone else was counting down.)

I KNEW THIS WOULD HAPPEN!

My landlords are gone and it SNOWED!!!

How am I ever going to get in there???

North Face Envy

Not because I want.

Because I want to be.

You know what I'm sayin.

TMI! TMI!

Use a Condom, Every Time

Even if just having sex.

This Christmas message brought to you by the Condom Animal Makers here at The Thing of the Moment.

(This post dedicated to the female friend (who remains anonymous but will instantly recognize herself) who once expressed dismay at the waste of having to purchase an ENTIRE package of 6 condoms with a 2 year expiration date.)

Twas the Night Before Christmas at the Bates Motel

Actually, far darker and more sinister, it's the Night Before Christmas at the Home of The Thing of the Moment.

As I mention at Facebook, I'm preparing for my Christmas tradition of waking up, weeping, cold, frightened and alone in my unheated apartment, praying for the light so I can get up for my usual Christmas breakfast of a cigarette and a glass of ice water.

Hee...I slay myself.

A very The Thing of the Moment hello to the very thorough, archive diving, post clicking, new Gentle Viewer from Verizon in Upper Washington State. (I know, I have no idea what a 'very The Thing of the Moment hello' is either.)

Heeeeey! Hooooo! (Ho, Ho!)

Yeah..that's right. Some of you may have seen this before.

But NEVER in the HDTV 16:9 format.

(Why you hatin' for the Holidays, anyway?)
