Weekly Roundup – Christmas Tree Edition
‘Tis the season… We spent the evening decorating the Christmas tree and listening to Christmas music. Actually, my wife spent the evening unwrapping and handing out ornaments, the kids spent the evening decorating the tree, and I spent the evening taking ornaments from the bottom front of the tree and spreading them around the tree.
And now I’m sitting here basking in the glow of our Christmas lights writing my weekly roundup…
NCN was getting ready for a yard sale.

Jeremy provided a visual history of the stock market.
