How Did this Awesome Snow Get on this Photo?

Does anybody know how this photo ended up with snow on it? I posted a bit a couple of hours ago that included this photo sans snow.

The little bell at the top of my google page had a red one on it (I don't believe that's ever happened before).  I clicked on it and ended up at a photo folder with three Christmas alterations.

Was this an automatic google thing to all Christmas-y photos uploaded to the net?

Finally, how do I get them to put snow on the photo of the Lexus on top of dead Santa?  That photo is the real deal.  The Craftsman vacuum is just a riff on the Lexus.

Thanks in advance.

The Home Alone Theme Song Blues

When did the song from Home Alone become THE Christmas song on every TV commercial?

You know the song.  It plays when the spoiled brat gets all misty when he looks at the photo of his incredibly irresponsible mother.  If that mother was poor and black, Child Services would have taken away all those kids, and that photo would have shown up on the front page of the New York Post.

Craftsman tools, Home Alone. The jewelry store in the mall that isn't "Every Kiss Begins with Kay." Home Alone. 

 

I'm gonna take a minute and rant about Every Kiss Begins with Kay.  How effing effed up is that sediment?  It's the Anti-Christ Christmas slogan.  Does anybody know anybody  that wants somebody that will only kiss them when they give them diamond jewelry? If Every Kiss Begins with Kay, shouldn't I buy all her jewelry at BJ's Wholesale?

No, but seriously, if I go out with this kind of chick, what do I really have to buy her to get some head, a Lexus?

The Lexus Christmas commercials use the Home Alone theme, too.

Da,  da,  da,  da,  da da da,  da...

Who can afford to give someone a Lexus for Christmas? Doctors, drug dealers, the dad in Home Alone, and John Williams.

John Williams, the guy that wrote the music in Star Wars, Jaws, Raiders of the Lost Ark, ad nauseum, also wrote the Home Alone Christmas ditty -- because his pile of money wasn't big enough.  He even had to sue Lexus because they used a virtually identical copy of it without giving him credit or royalties.

So when is Mariah Carey going to do a cover version?

This Week's Rejected Daily Mail Comments -- 12/12/13

Another Post Courtesy of the Daily Mail - I kid Rupert Murdoch a lot when we see each other at the Friar's Club but his rag does supply an endless assortment of crap for my blog.

When you really, really need to see celebrity nipples poking through skintight blouses there is only one place to go on the web, the Daily Mail Online. Now there's another reason to visit the Daily Mail, a new game for killing time at work. The goal is to get as many red down arrows as possible when you comment on their articles.

You'd think it would be easy. The Daily Mail is just like the New York Post except it's targeted at toothless limeys instead of toothless guys from Staten Island. Work some pro-ObamaCare into your comment, maybe a gay marriage doesn't really hurt anyone, and those red arrows will start piling up, right?  Right?  Wrong. The problem is you have to get your comments through those warehouses full of censors housed somewhere just east of Mumbai.

Kim Kardashian and the riddle of her nose: How it has morphed over the years
My Comment: When's Kayne's nose gonna start changing?

Kim hasn't had surgery on her nose?  I call BS.

I thought Kayne was going to be a good influence on Kim.  He seemed smart and grounded, but it seems he's getting more like her everyday.  His talent is shrinking as his celebrity grows. Lately he's as dumb as a Kardashian.

Here's a rare photo of Kayne West and Kim Kardashian from New Year's Eve 2018.

I did not know who Paul Walker was before he died.  Movies about fast cars driven by arrogant-looking douchebags aren't my thing.  Mandela I've heard of.  The next time a rightwing douchebag tells you how great Reagan was just say two words, "Apartheid and AIDs."

'You're all over the place!': Anchorman star Steve Carell hijacks weather girl's slot on Daybreak
My Comment:  Ron Burgundy, News Presenter. I'm sick of the endless Anchorman plugs. This movie must really suck if they're expending this much effort for that 1st weekend.  Rating ▼15

So, I'm not much of a Ron Burgundy fan and the rest of the world is. I'll tell you what I am a fan of, Laura Tobin's butt. Look at it. Drink it in.  That butt is standing at attention and saluting. Forget hitting it with a car antenna, I want to put the Compleate Oxford Dictionary on it, build a fire and admire it from the sofa, while sipping a brandy.

Or maybe put a nice potted plant on it, a ficus or a fern, and make all my co-workers salivate with envy.

Who is this Laura Tobin and how can I watch her butt forecast the weather every damn day?

Martin Bashir suggests someone should 's**t' in Palin's mouth

My Comment:  Funny thing, if you paid her enough, she would do it -- with that big s**t-eating smile.

Peekaboo! Kim Kardashian showcases her famous figure in a very revealing cut-out dress for the family's annual Christmas card

'The Angel of 9/11': Haunting face appears in mangled girder taken from EXACT spot where first plane smashed into Twin Towers

My Comment:  Not an angel. It looks just like an Ewok from Star Wars: Return of the Jedi. Probably a commercial tie-in. If you look closely down near the bottom, you can clearly see Mayor McCheese and Ronald McDonald.    Rating ▲2

Okay, I admit that Ronald McDonald and Mayor McCheese were for laughs but I can make a pretty compelling argument for "The Ewok of 9-11."

Angel or Ewok, you decide.

Throwback Thursday - My Brief Career as the Catholic Justin Beiber

Nothing turns on a teenaged Catholic girl  more than a boy that sings like an angleic girl.  After nailing the high C in Miserere mei, Deus I'd strut past the tear-stained faces of Father O'Reilly and Father Harrigan to the community room where I was treated like Mr. Justin B.

I was THE boy soprano at St. Matt's, you know, the one over by the expressway.  In my neighborhood, I was responsible for more damp panties than Leif Garrett and Scott Baio combined.

See that hot blonde in the demure sweater vest and white tights?  One night she hit on me so hard in the rectory I was sore for a week.  Rectory?  She nearly killed me.  In the photo, I'm standing next to Donna "Lefty" Mantione, the girl in the plaid mini-skirt.  We called her Lefty on account of her left knee was 6 inches higher than her right knee.  Lefty hated me but her mom, Mrs. Mantione?  She used to rub my weiner whenever I got my hair cut at her husbands shop.

Then Joseph Michael DePietro moved into the neighborhood.  His family came east from Bensonhurst in a sky blue Cadillac stuffed full of dreams of a better life -- but it was my life that would be forever changed.

As you can see from the photo, Joseph Michael was a smug, confident, little mothereffer.  His hair came euipped with a curl that screamed out "I don't want to be so adorable, I tried to stay up there with rest of the hair, I just can't help falling down onto Joseph Michael's forehead."  Oh, Joseph Michael was better looking than me and younger than me and was always called Joseph Michael.

I was just Bob.  I was just Bob and during Christmas break a couple of short stubby hairs had appeared under my arms.   By Ash Wednesday, I was sporting a bush that would have put the fear of God into Moses himself.   We were practicing for  Good Friday mass when my voice broke for the first time.

"Sing in your head, Mr. Melonosky not your chest. Again from the top. Proceed," screamed a stressed out Sister Agnes. And again my voice cracked.  She whipped out her ruler and to my surprise she used it to point to young Joseph Michael. "You get up there and try it Joseph Michael."

Theresa Sagitaria let out an audible gasp and a single tear rolled down her rosy cheek and got caught in the slight moustache that tickled so nicely when we necked in the coat closet of the Catechism Classroom.

I stepped down from the pimp spot and headed over to the lowly tenors who all scootched over leaving enough room for three former boy sopranos.

When Joseph Michael sang, actual angels stopped singing to listen. Then those angels ripped their wings off and headed straight for a bar.  Which is where I would have headed if I had enough facial hair to pass for eighteen.

Karlie Kloss shows some underboob at Victoria's Secret Afterparty
My comment: Underboob is my second most favorite part of a boob. Karlie's underboobs are kaptivating!

The thoracic region is my second most favorite region of the female body.  Here's an anatomical diagram of my favorite region.

Mamma mia! Jessica Simpson shows off fantastic post baby body

Which one is the fat zebra and which one is the fat ______?  What is Jessica Simpson exactly?  I forget. Let's go with fat blonde.

Can you find Jessica Simpson in this Serengeti landscape?  It's like Finding Waldo, look for the stripes.  Jessica, never the brightest ass in the herd, has made a fashion faux pas with her choice of a massive black handbag.  A hungry hyena will no doubt separate her from the safety of her fellow zebras and eat her for lunch.  She will be a big meal.
