I just got off this bus. That’s gotta be worth at least one WOOF on January 1st. Maybe a WOOF-and-a-half.

18. Flipmode Squad - The Imperial I enjoy Busta Rhymes in small doses. He’s very enjoyable as a guest on someone else’s album. I just couldn’t get into this. This is FINALLY the last one of these. Verdict: Sell Of the 18 I bought, I’m keeping 5. We’ll see how much I can get for the other 13.

From 2018, my wife’s Christmas gifts from her students, and mine from my students. Same school district, different socioeconomic realities.

I’ve reached Christmas break, and there is a new Card-vent post for all to enjoy. December is suffering, but this part is bliss. (But I have to do FIVE post-dated posts tomorrow.) deathstarecards.blogspot.com/2025/12/2025...

Last night the rest of our trivia team couldn’t make it, so Mrs. Thorzul and I just went and dominated for a wire-to-wire first place finish. This is now several times in a row playing solo and winning.l

Bathroom remodel update: Not done yet, but getting there.

I treated myself to an early Christmas present. The complete series of The X-Files on DVD in the big, bulky original cases. Paid for out of my reselling account, so it’s basically free.

Got it. Man, that was some digging. Don’t be afraid to go deep into your flesh, you’ll get it.

Dang, huge sliver in my thumb.

Wow, just won a game of spades where my partner and I both bid and hit the nil. First time ever.

After some earlier missteps, balance has been brought to the Card-vent. deathstarecards.blogspot.com/2025/12/2025...

Shoot, I just wrote a whole Card-vent post before realizing that it broke my “a team may only be featured once on each calendar” rule. Scrapping it. A man got to have a code.

MOVIE #186 OF 2025

Can anybody beat this? Unrequited friend request from ex-girlfriend that is nearly old enough to drive. No one holds a grudge like me.

Had a really stressful week highlighted by a planned and shared math lesson taught by me and a teacher coach from Curriculum Associates. Hate doing that shit, mostly because I automatically distrust anyone who doesn’t work in the trenches. But it got back to my principal that I was fucking awesome.

17. Shine - Godfather Buried Alive Had it moments, some funny rhymes, not much else. I knew absolutely nothing about this dude. Went to a club with Diddy and J-Lo and shot some people? Did a ten-year sentence? Got elected to the Belizean House of Representatives? Verdict: Sell (Has a weird voice.)

Is this the first NFL kicker to be featured on the Card-vent Calendar? The historians are scouring the archives. deathstarecards.blogspot.com/2025/12/2025...
