Phone cam round up: dubious holiday roll call

Stumbled upon these militant little bastards in my travels. Those things underneath them are their giant silver turds. Got Rudolph?

Yes, I shopped at the mall. Yes, I ate lunch in the food court. No, I don't like to admit it. But red taco shells? As if taking a "break" from holiday mall shopping by eating at Taco Bell isn't enough punishment. I'm telling you people, everything comes back to you.

These guys are trying. I give them points for trying.

One wonders, one does, if this unfortunate discovery ...

... is related to this one.

Now then, if that guy isn't Christmas-alternative enough for you, stop by SantaCon 2011. You won't regret it.

Off for more ho-ho-ho-ing.

Nine out of ten bartenders recommend "The Club". It will make your car completely undriveable...

Thanks VD. Right back at you. This isn't my favorite time of year but it's really hard to be bah humbugish if you have grandkids. And, I do. And thanks for the Blog Erin. I've been hanging out here for quite a while now. Have yourself a Merry Little Christmas.

I like the dude with the candy cane mohawk. And the barefoot guy with his dogs in the next photo who didn't seem to be part of SantaCon at all.

Merry Christmas, EOB!

Hola gang,

Gotta post this: Dig the graphic in this link.

When I first saw it, I thought the sphere was the size of a baseball. That mother is 3 1/2 feet in diameter!

Behold the importance of the erin foot when it comes to object scale.

Merry merry and happy happy!

Just looked it up. There are over 13,000 man-made objects orbiting the Earth. Man, suppose they all fell down at once?
