Christmas Eve is often a time to spend getting together with family, cooking a nice meal and listening for the clop, clop of Santa’s reindeer on the roof. But the normally cheerful occasion has a darker secret — the greatest heart attack risk of the year.

That’s according to a new study published in the British Medical Journal on Wednesday, which found that a person’s risk of heart attack spikes during most holidays and peaks at around 10 p.m on Christmas Eve.

“The peak is very pronounced exactly on Christmas Eve and the following two days, so, I think it is something specific for the way we celebrate these holidays,” said Lund University cardiologist David Erlinge, according to the Telegraph.

Morning, muchachos.

I was questioning the usefulness of moonshiners the other day and I got some info from a couple of knowledgeable sources.  Seems that moonshine is in high demand these days.  A lot of the tv show is pretty accurate.  The old fashioned corn liquor is not where the demand is though, various fruit flavored concoctions are what they want and that goes along with the tv shows.  Cherry, peach and orange are very popular flavors.

And Apple Pie. That stuff can put the hurt on you.

Right now, I'm splitting my time between actual work and enjoying the pig-out our department is having today.

I saw that. Wondering if the habano will be the "original"?

All these damn food recalls are getting ridiculous!  Used to be you took them back for a refund but most of them now are saying F.U., throw it away it is dangerous and do not return it so you eat the cost.  I had to throw away a pack of expensive ground prime rib a couple of weeks ago.

That's BS.
