• Boxing Day was a huge day at shopping malls on Tuesday as holiday gift recipients crowded the stores at the return counters. As for cleaning up the house, I put it off.

• The Pentagon admitted recruiting shortfalls have left the U.S. with its smallest active-duty force since 1940.

• U.S. Navy warships shot down twelve drones and five missiles fired by the Yemeni Houthis at oil tankers and U.S. ships in the Persian Gulf Tuesday. In a related story Amazon just announced it will begin delivering packages to houses in the U.S. via drones in 2024. How cool, skeet shooting with prizes.
• Chicago's Mayor pledged money to economically develop high crime areas. The other night I was watching the news and saw a flash mob break into a place, smash their way past the guards and steal everything of value. It recalled a movie I saw back when I was a kid called How the West Was Won.
