Deductive Seasoning: A duet - 'tis the season for some reason ๐… 

Go, figure: As in you've probably already figured out, deduced from what's conspicuous by it's absence. No, not those ubiquitous carols that have been almost 24/7 since 12:01 just after midnight on Halloween...and not all those countdowns on what's in, not for last, the next...but more so the ongoing series within a series with...about what's about to happen in the residence of the presiding faculty member -- the "Office of the Principal" -- the one who is principally responsible revoking recess! and prohibiting playground players...

Fair thee well: Only a slight derivation from what one might fare, after being wished well, upon a new year, or when a parent might say..."have a good day, make good choices so that thee might sustain your playground privileges..." But, NO! You'd be almost spot on, using your noggin, a modicum of logic, if you thought, anticipated that I would continue in my campaign to rid the school, root out, all the dirty rotten, unprincipled scoundrels...right minded I am...and just...

To be fare: That is, who wants to encounter the standard fare of what is likely to endure, after sleeping in, putting of home/house work (depending on your station, life) -- and now, wake up to that buzz or voice-over of your choice...and to be fair to about half of the school agers who have yet to return...after helping around the house, clean-up after all the scraps, other-wise, oft referred to as...

Left-overs: No, not that Uncle Harry I wrote you about, just a few days ago here (the year's already flying by!) that had you screaming "Uncle!" but yet two other types, a couple of causes for pauses, to put on your thinking cap(s)...

Causes Celebre!! That at least should demand, command your "undivided attention" about what's behind all this, the real meaning(s) for this season of reason...all the commercial (carriers) and those that go above and beyond the industry standard. What you've probably already deduced, given the collective intelligence of those that frequent this site...

Talk about deductive reasoning! I know, and you shall too, as in "too soon" a thing or two-fer...about what you already selected in the past year, just before the app regarding what health care policy you endorsed in what was touted as "open" enrollment, where lots of sweat equity is put into what "deductible" they (the so-called carrier of your health care, as well as those who have a "good neighbor policy" on you, for your "home-owners" -- part of which is likely co-owned by your "friendly banker"). All in good spirit so far. But weight! I mean wait until you see what's called the EOB (if I have to explain the "Explanation Of Benefits" you clearly need to go back and read all the fine print that you glossed over before endorsing "Agree to all terms"). This, before all the perennial "close outs" (for some, pronounced "clothes out" if a few pounds were added or you put some out for donation given the new ones that you were gifted with...) Speaking of adding...does it not seem just a bit odd to you (if you've bothered to think about it) that when it comes to the IRS in a few months you will have the opportunity to once again what to deduct, partly via those add-ons you've spent whatever number of years raising (including the one we have all come to know as "Standard") , a few of which may be residing elsewhere part-time, but still spending sufficient time (and your in-come) to count them as a so-called "dependent" and thereby lighten, trim your "bottom" -- line, that is...But if you're not careful and over-think this, and deduct too much (only their highly trained actuaries, assisted by the AI guy know where "just enough" stops "greedy" starts...) or, even "none" at all (as in 0) and you may find your-self "in front of the IRS"๐Ÿ˜Ÿ๐Ÿ˜“. 

Inducing: As in this should be sufficient information and motivation to induce you to think about deductive reasoning, all season long. And note the difference; worth thinking about, how...

"No exclusions" - Seen here as when, after all those who were busy "withholding" and other-wise later risers, have finally found their back to school, work...

"Brilliant deductions...come meet strokes of genius" As in next up, one more stop before returning to the OOP! (Office of Principal, for those who did not deduce from the evidence on hand)...

Star Struck: where things are always looking up...

  "King David, where art Thou?" Here and Now: When I need and you most...for a quote, a tip, let alone a quip... Clever crafted commentary: At his best, in his field, "In my humble opinion..."  "Coming to you tonight..." Each and every night, assuming we welcomed him with his partner, known in our home, as simply "Chet" when we referred to him on his own, but more formally when paired with "David" as the "Huntley-Brinkley" reporting team...
