• New York is preparing for the New Year's Eve party in Times Square Tuesday where one million celebrants will join the countdown at midnight during the ball drop. I have the exact same thought every December 31st. I just can't believe it's been an entire year since I failed to become a better person.
• Beyonce rode onto the football field on a horse in Houston Wednesday to deliver a halftime show on Christmas Day during the Baltimore-Houston game. Beyonce belted out country songs in the voice of a new character she's created called Cowboy Carter. It's a new genre of music called Hick Hop.
• Chicago Cubs legend Sammy Sosa finally confessed his steroid use during his playing career in which he hit over 600 homers. Steroid regimen is not unknown here in the Hollywood entertainment world. You have to eat right and train every day, and cover up the fact that you had a baby with the maid.
• Bucks County staged a re-enactment of Washington Crossing the Delaware on Christmas 1776 to ambush sleeping Hessians. It's immortalized in the famous painting. And if you don't think Americans are monarchists by nature, look at the painting and you'll notice Washington is the only one not rowing.
• Politico published a demand by two writers Thursday that Congress refuse to ratify the Electoral College vote and refuse to recognize Trump as the elected president. The Political Left picked the wrong time of year to sell the nation on this ploy. A civil war could delay the NFL playoffs and the Super Bowl.
• President Biden called off his attempts to forgive college loan debt last week citing the likelihood of its defeat in courts on constitutional grounds. I say shrug it off. It was when I was in OU back in the 1970s that I learned to take life with a grain of salt, followed by a bite of lemon and a shot of tequila.
• President Biden rushed more weapons to Ukraine Friday as Russia welcomed tens of thousands of North Korean infantry. They're to help in a final push before peace talks. Russia's army is not as strong and ferocious as expected because two years ago they wasted all their steroids on figure skaters.
• Donald Trump urged Wayne Gretsky to run against Trudeau for Canadian Prime Minister. He's a hockey immortal. The first jockey strap in ice hockey was introduced in 1874 and the helmet was made obligatory in 1974 so it took 100 years before men realized that the brain was worth preserving, too.
• Panama's President Mulino slammed Donald Trump for trying to steal the Panama Canal. He misses the big picture. The way Anglo-Saxons see things, we stole North America, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa, so at this point what's stealing a 50-mile-ditch that we built in the first place?
• Daily Variety says the movie and TV industry in Los Angeles is in recession due to production cutbacks since last year's strike, leaving thousands of people jobless on both sides of the camera. Last week I saw William Shatner in the Beverly Hills Pawn Shop. He was wearing a tag that read $800.
• Car and Driver reports the classic 80s DeLorean sports car is returning to showroom floors. In an FBI sting in 1983 founder John DeLorean agreed to sell $24 million in cocaine to try to bail the company out of debt. The good news is, the U.S. Auto Dealers Association named him Dealer of the Year.
