By Randy Gardner
Wow, is all I can say since the last time. I don’t even have to say another word as we all know what I am talking about. It was like a bombshell that fell out of the sky as Albert Pujols signs with the Angels. I have so many opinions on this that it will almost sound like I am contradicting myself.

Boomer’s Journal: A Christmas Tale in 2012
(Dec. 13, 2011)
By Tom Anselm

BY TOM ANSELM
It is fair to say that Thanksgiving is my favorite of all the holidays. And I bet I have a lot of partners in this sentiment.

Maybe I’m just a grumpy old man, but 8th grade should be the cutoff.
