- December 27, 2010
- “I’ve been working at Furniture Gallery for four years. I do just about everything: books, ordering, delivering, sales. I fell into it, I just went to work for the owner and as the business expanded and changed direction, it’s where I ended up. Before that, I kind of bounced around, I did some landscaping, different seasonal jobs in Steamboat, some retail. “I like dealing with the people who want to improve what they have, whether they’re looking to get something more value-priced or real fine furniture. We do deliveries all over the region, so we get to deal with all that — houses, people’s different decors. We deal with 120 different companies, we get stuff from all over. We try to run the gamut as far as price, quality, selection. You see furniture stores that have a lot of real high-end stuff, like most Steamboat stores have. We try to give everybody a choice so that they know what they’re doing.

- H. Neal Glanville: Post-traumatic Santa stress
- December 27, 2010
- Notice: This is a real, honest-to-goodness disclaimer. I took no part in this misadventure, and studies have shown that parents who attempt this may cause phobias even Santa Claus can’t buy his way out of. Long ago, when Roy and I were much younger (I believe I was younger then than our sons are now), my beloved brother caught a bit of the weak side flu and decided dressing up as Santa Claus on the eve of his getting there was the way to go. Now, I’m a bit on the sinewy side, but Roy was always older, taller and, much to his dismay, skinnier. Was that, combined with the lack of a Santa suit, going to halt this man on a mission ordered by the weak side?

- Horoscope for Dec. 27
- December 27, 2010
- CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Don’t involve yourself in anything in which you can’t use your full strength or muster the forces needed to advance a personal interest. You’ll fail by being sorely inadequate. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — A failure to use your full talents or vivid imagination would be tantamount to quitting before you even got started. All you would do is endow the opposition with powers it wouldn’t normally have. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — Shakespeare reminds us never to be a borrower or a lender. Follow this advice, especially in situations that would involve you fiscally with friends.
