Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And the days of auld lang syne?

For auld lang syne, my dear
For auld lang syne
We'll drink a cup of kindness yet
For the sake of auld lang syne

What? It's Christmas morning and you still don't have that light ball untangled?

The Christmas wreath is traditionally made with evergreen branches to symbolize eternal life and adorned with festive red berries, ribbons, glass spheres and decorations. But it looks like someone has gone a little overboard with the ornaments, right? Where’s the greenery?

The wreaths are hung and the lanes are waxed -- it's Family Holiday Bowling Hour! Sometimes, you get strikes, and sometimes you get gutters. So, Dude, wave to Frosty before you roll, spot-up your target arrows, and let the pins fall where they may. Shoosh, I guess that's the way the whole durned human comedy keeps perpetuatin' itself.
