What is "elf on a shelf"?

I thought it was cute when I first heard about how the elf gets moved around to be found each day. Then this year I learned he actually is keeping an eye on the little ones and reports to Santa on who is naughty or good. I don't like it much any more. I think it started out from a book story.

The Elf on the Shelf®: A Christmas Tradition includes a special scout elf sent from the North Pole to help Santa Claus manage his naughty and nice lists. When a family adopts a scout elf and gives it a name, the scout elf receives its Christmas magic and can fly to the North Pole each night to tell Santa Claus about all of the day's adventures. Each morning, the scout elf returns to its family and perches in a different place to watch the fun.
 
I just turned on the television and was sad to hear pop christian carols. Just happy thoughts and no mention of Jesus Christ, but plenty for fairy tales and sugar plums which won't save you.

In Jerusalem it's 6:52 in the morning. Three thousand years ago Mary is in labor, and Joseph can't find a place for our Lord to be born. They seek shelter in a manger, a humble beginning for the Savior of the world.
 
I just got word a few hours ago that my cousins' girlfriend is in labor 5 weeks early! Baby girl wanted to be born NOW!

She's not in the world yet but I told them they should name her Noelle! :) pictures to follow tomorrow, hopefully!

And don't worry, doctors say she looks good and aren't too worried about her being over a month premature!
 
Wishing everyone a Very Merry Christmas !!! :santahat:

Jodi Arias will get a video call for Christmas, Juan Martinez fights back

"... What this means is the defense is trying to say, Travis abused Jodi and so she should get off for this killing.
Due to an overwhelming lack of evidence, most court watchers aren't buying it. They are saying, “We’re still waiting to see a mitigating factor. And evidence, please.”..."

Vinnie Politan has had enough of Jodi Arias supporter George Barwood

"Former HLN host Vinnie Politan let loose today on a very outspoken Arias supporter. George Barwood believes Jodi Arias killed Travis Alexander in self defense out of "extreme fear" and she has been "wrongfully convicted". Politan posted a letter to "Sir George" on his facebook page..."

Every Christmas my family would watch and listen to this TV station's broadcast of the Yule Log. I noticed that there was still a yule log on TV yesterday, but the music was not very traditional. :sigh:

WPIX Yule Log

The Yule Log was created in 1966 by Fred M. Thrower, President and CEO of WPIX, Inc. Inspired by an animated Coca-Cola commercial a year earlier that showed Santa Claus at a fireplace, he envisioned this television program as a televised Christmas gift to those residents of "The Big Apple" who lived in apartments and homes without fireplaces. This also provided time for employees of the TV station to stay home with their families, instead of working for the usual morning news program.
