So, it’s 2020, which makes this the year of hindsight, or, something like that—I’m not going to hold my breath over it.  Anyway, I’m here to keep doing my late-night shtick, and, give us night-owls a place to chat, listen to music, and kvetch about whatever.  Me–I’m gonna try to enjoy a protracted holiday season with a few more 3 and 4-day weekends.  And, I suppose work on Night Shift posts.  Let’s get to it, shall we?

 

I would like for George Carlin to kick off the new year’s Night Shift.  Take it away, George.

Because, I’m sure some of you were very naughty in 2019, you all get this to start off the year.  Shame!

How the strange and stupid wrapped up 2019.  No, that’s not a link to DU or Kos.

I blame the recent white supremacy happening in NYC.  When even the wind is against you, you may just need to pack it all up, and move.

Is this really the hardest part of being homeless?  I find that I hate people on both sides of the issue, if it can even be accurately called that.  One thing to keep in mind:  It’s good when cops are posting on social media, because we get to see their idiocy.  Also, if they weren’t posting, they’d most likely just be monitoring it.

S’up Kane?!

I asked about gifts received a few weeks ago, so:  Who had issues with gifts NOT received?  It seems like Amazon and USPS were more on point this year, although there were certainly screw-ups to be found with deliveries.  Do you have any stories about items disappearing into the aether?

Caution:  KK bait. Part dos.

OK—on the surface, this sounds promising.  I just can’t shake the feeling that the problem is reckoned as not enough cooperation, and, therefore, not more legislation getting passed.

I had an interesting time at my in-laws for Christmas.  I have always followed my wife’s lead in regards to not asking what her father did for work, as he was a USAF civilian employee of some importance (not a contractor).  It wasn’t a “family secret”, so much as there was a lot that I was told he couldn’t talk about.  Well, it turns out he was high up in the B-2 project.  I don’t know much about what he did on the program, or, afterwards.  Still, I found it cool to have that connection.

I do love me some classics.  What—you don’t like my selection?  Alright; something more Glibs-appropriate.

 

I guess that’s enough damage for the first Night Shift of 2020.  I am hoping that this might catch on more with non-regulars, even if that means them forgoing sleep and other commitments, just for the sake of an ego-stroking (ahem).  Anyway, jump on in, and have fun!
