Seasons greetings. I’m out for the next several days for the first of my two remaining breaks before the end of the year. It’ll go by quickly, I promise. You can insert that Thing here about what happens when I go away, but understand this is a time when news is bound to happen.

I’ll keep an eye on things here, and the bat signal is at the ready. For now, though, how about a good old bowl pick ’em contest? My gift to you. Password: stuff(anything)
