| 3581 | Article | Vaporman87 | This story of your father helping others during Christmastime reminds me of the stories I've heard of my Grandfather and how he helped others without ever saying anything about it. That's what the Christmas Spirit is really all about. The giving. Especially to those who are struggling and just hoping to make it through another Christmas with food on the table. Thanks for sharing these memories Mickey. They will do us all a lot of good this Christmas. | Dec 15, 2016 |  | |
| 3597 | Article | Vaporman87 | Another epic NLogan Christmas article. This was a lot to digest but I managed to take it all in in one sitting. I love the detail you go into here. I really get a bit of a sense of what your time at your Grandma's was really like during Christmas and beyond. Despite all the family separation, you seem to have made the best of it and overcame the rifts to have memorable and joyous holidays. Thanks for sharing this with us my friend. | NLogan's Christmas at Grandma's House | Dec 18, 2016 | |
| 3602 | Article | Vaporman87 | How did people keep from cutting themselves on aluminum trees I wonder? | NLogan's Christmas at Grandma's House | Dec 19, 2016 | |
| 3607 | Article | Vaporman87 | Thanks for this nice little review of the people and events that shaped Christmas into what it is today. I think we hear or read bits and pieces of this type of info from time to time, but rarely does any of us have the time or inclination to research the whole history. This is a nice way to discover that without having to devote a lot of time and attention to it. Great stuff. | The History of Christmas | Dec 20, 2016 | |
| 3608 | Article | Vaporman87 | I have a feeling most of us have stories that would fit right in with the theme of this article. For myself, the first thing that comes to mind is that every year I asked for a golf cart, and every year I was disappointed. LOL. I wanted a golf cart to drive up and down the neighborhood in. I used to think it would be so incredibly cool. The closest I ever got was a four wheeler, and that's just not the same. I also wanted the U.S.S. Flagg, and never got that either. Nor did I get the Eternia playset. So yeah, I was disappointed a few times on Christmas. And man, can I relate to your feelings about extended family gifts. They are usually such "throw away" items that there doesn't even seem to be a point in opening them. | Christmas 64 | Dec 20, 2016 | |
| 3609 | Article | Vaporman87 | This was a very touching story. I'm glad you shared it with us Supes. I'm glad you still got to build that snowman, even though it was with your mother. It still made a lasting impression on you and your Christmases from then on. | The First Snowman I Ever Built | Dec 20, 2016 | |
| 3610 | Article | Vaporman87 | It's weird to see Howey Mandel as that character, but that casting actually makes sense to me. He is good at that sort of manic, off beat weirdo. It's kind of neat that you have made a tradition out of your favorite show. | Christmas with Superman | Dec 20, 2016 | |
| 3641 | Article | Vaporman87 | These concert experience articles were a lot of fun. I'm glad they are back up on the site again! | 90's Concert Experiences Part 1 | Dec 31, 2016 | |
| 3642 | Article | Vaporman87 | Another Hoju classic that I'm glad to see back up again. | Family Road Trips | Dec 31, 2016 | |
| 3643 | Article | Vaporman87 | Before the disastrous server screw up with KnownHost, there was a forum thread in which I ranted about the new comic. I too am a big M.A.S.K. fan (probably my favorite toy line/cartoon of the past, second only to Masters of the Universe. I was anticipating a revival of everything familiar, only to see that a lot of things had been changed. I think the straw that broke the camel's back for me was changing Matt Trakker into an African-American. If the writers wanted to make the property more diverse, more power to them. But do it with a NEW character! Don't go making major changes to the old ones. Make your new leader a disciple of the original Matt Trakker, or a friend... or anything but the actual Matt Trakker! Understand that my sense of aversion to these types of changes are heightened because of the world we live in now, with it's precious snowflake infested safe spacer political correctness running amok. Not to mention I found this out around the same time I was finding out that Iron Man was now a young woman of color. What?! So yeah, the changes that were made to the characters and their stories/motivations were too great for me to overcome, and in my view totally unnecessary (kinda like an all female Ghostbusters movie). | The Rebirth of M.A.S.K. and the Nostalgia Struggle | Dec 31, 2016 | |
