Dominos in Japan is trying something a little different to deliver pizza this Christmas. They’re training reindeer to bring the pizza to the door of residents in Japan’s northernmost island, Hakkaido. Gotta think this is gonna take way longer than 30 minutes for delivery.

When you walk into a place that looks like your hometown movie theater from the 1980s, recognize you did not arrive at the proper location for the show. It is at The Aragon. Also, that sweater. Yikes.
If someone offers you a fountain pen at The Nights We Stole Christmas, remember. Just say no. Friends don’t let friends accept fancy writing utensils from strangers.
(Wait. I’m genuinely confused by this. Sure, follow the rules. But when placed on a stop sign, doesn’t it send mixed messages? Read literally, it seems to mean…STOP following the rules. I’ve decided this tip does not apply The Nights We Stole Christmas.)
Don’t be the silver haired fox who boxes people out from the merch tables.
It is advisable to wear deodorant to The Nights We Stole Christmas while waving your hands in the air as if there were no consequences.
If you mistakenly drive off with a gas nozzle after filling up on your way over, don’t bring it inside and wave it in the air like some kind of trophy. And you on the left…this ain’t Pants Off, Dance Off.
Don’t use a mirror to create your own homemade band t-shirt. Actually, you’ll probably sell a s#!@ ton of these on Etsy. Go for it.
If you had a bad long weekend due to the Thanksgiving break, you should probably watch this video below! Trust me, all your worries will go away!
The final trailer for the anticipated ‘Rogue One: A Star Wars Story’ hit the web today to give us one last savory tease of the epic spinoff/prequel coming out on December 16th. The story involves a rag tag crew put together by the Rebels to steal information of the construction of the Death Star, putting the movie chronologically before the original ‘Star Wars: A New Hope’ film. This latest trailer shows more of a light-hearted look at the team of central players as well as the droid K-2SO, wild X-Wing dog fights in outer space, and some new fun action scenes with giant robots flinching from missile strikes. The trailer does hit the member-berry feels with a scene involving a mother telling her daughter to “trust the force” which throws back to the core battle of good and evil that has resonated through the entire series.
There has been overzealous fan freak-outs over the recent reveal that ‘Rogue One’ will not have the standard scrolling text prologue that fans have been familiar with at the start of all previous SW films, but Star Wars executive producer Kathleen Kennedy told Variety “We felt that’s so indicative of what those saga films are. Initially, we probably will begin the film in a way that is traditional, with just the title.” And that makes total sense, so fear not Jedis, this movie looks like it’s going to be pretty cool.
Yes this is as cute as it sounds.
BEHOLD WIENER DOGS RACING ON ICE! Kudos to the Tri-City Storm for putting on this adorable doggy event with these weiner dogs wiggling their butts as fast as possible.
If that is not enough hockey meets cute dogs action for you, here is a Crusoe the “celebrity daschund” in a hockey uniform paling around with a fellow hockey fan dog.
Jumping over a fence to sneak into a festival is pretty dumb. It does’nt support the bands performing or help the people who worked to put on the show for everyone involved. We have heard tall tales of people sneaking into Grant Park during Lollapalooza, but ‘fence-jumping’ a fest might have gotten much harder to pull off due to new technology being implemented by an Australian music festival.
The Event Agency, promoters behind the upcoming Arcadia Australia festival are using a special non-drying lubricant ink to fencing for the the concert which will make it harder to climb in without a ticket. The same ink will stain the clothing of fence-jumpers for up to three weeks, which makes it easy to identify them. The promoters said in an article with iq-mag.net they want to make “an impenetrable barrier”,
So I guess these concert-going criminals will have to get crafty with a second set of clothing? No matter what you think, this new ink idea is quite clever and sounds effective.
Anyone else getting the feeling that Black Friday…has lost its punch?
To me, it started when Cyber Monday came on the scene. Then, in the last couple of years, Black Friday sales started to impinge upon Thursday. And people don’t want things messing with their turkey.
So when you start to see news reports or articles on either the apparent success or failure of Black Friday and the kickoff of the holiday sales season, take it with a grain of salt. Actually, you will probably end up ignoring them altogether after reading this article from FiveThirtyEight. They spell out a number of reasons why the data you hear about this weekend is dead wrong.
For instance, MasterCard says the busiest shopping day last year…way above Black Friday. So way to go, slackers.
How do you get it done? —->
It seems the importance of Black Friday as a shopping day is diminishing. How do you do holiday shopping? — @erickristensen

Do you think the music videos for Cleopatra, Angela and Sleep On The Floor are all connected in a timeline?
There is definitely some strong evidence that suggests it! Check out all 3 of the videos down below and let us know what you think!

For 37 years she has graced the TV screens of Chicago, reporting the news and doing so with a natural endearing quality but today was Linda Yu’s last day with ABC7 Eyewitness News. Yu immigrated to the United States from China knowing very little English,then climbed her way up the media ladder and delivered quality news reporting every step along the way. She has been on air in Chicago since 1979, first with NBC5 before starting her long run with ABC7 in 1984. Yu became the first Asian-American journalist to be on TV in Chicago.
The team at ABC7 gave her a tremendous sendoff on her last day.
Here is a retrospective look at Yu’s prolific career which started first on the West Coast and has taken her all over the world bringing the news back to Chicago.
