But we’re already in full on Holiday mode… If you don’t believe me just walk into any store.  And the 38 degree weather in the valley this morning made it feel like the holidays.  I am kidless through Thanksgiving, so I have made it my goal to have my place decorated by the time they return…  Now to see if I actually pull that off.

I had a good solo weekend.  Friday the Magnolia Park area of Burbank had a big holiday kick off street party… I have to say it was an excellent event.  Burbank has a history of some cheesy events (Burbank on Parade for example), but this was really well done.  They blocked off all of Magnolia from Hollywood Way to Buena Vista and the street was full of Burbankians getting in the holiday mood.

On Saturday I decided to take myself to a concert, I very rarely get to go to shows anymore and it is something that I love to do.  I saw Bob Mould (ex – Husker Du and Sugar) at The Bootleg Theater (which I highly recommend, it’s supper small).  I guess that’s one of the benefits of getting older, bands you liked when you were young are no longer playing huge venues to thousands, you get to enjoy small, intimate shows.

My sister and Ethan returned from Australia yesterday, so I’m sure she’ll be posting tons of photos soon… I know they has encounters with koalas and kangaroos, but haven’t heard their stories of The Great Barrier Reef yet.

This is horrible, I’ve seen (drunk) adults almost fall from there too.   Stench would do this if she provided Hot Wings!  Here’s a big surprise.    You know he hooked this up through Facebook!  Jake is the walrus.   Problem solved.   Why didn’t they mooooove?

Rock on, Jack

I guess we can officially start saying it.  Today is supposed to be the biggest online shopping day of the year, so quit wasting your time reading this and do some whopping (I made it up, web-shopping = whopping… Think it’ll take off?)

We are back live on the CRN tonight, and on WBIX 1060 in Boston…  Which is very cool.

Can’t lie, I’m not really into the holiday thing yet…  This will be the most difficult Christmas I’ve had to weather, my financial problems continue and no kids on Christmas Eve.  I know so many of you are going through hard times, which really isn’t comforting for anyone… Wouldn’t be nice is things were better for us all!

The Toluca Lake Holiday Open House is Friday… If you’re in the area, it’s always a fun evening.  Also, Sunday is The Studio City Holiday Parade...  See, there’s a lot of holiday spirit in the valley.

Drunk fish.  Oh deer.   That’s $900 a six-pack.  Too broke to hire santa. Quick Tweet this.  Holy Iron.  I told you this months ago.  This isn’t good news if you’re in Texas. Guess who in Hollywood is getting a face lift now.  See guys, don’t do meth!

Rock On, Jack
