"NO Kidding!" No Tom Foolery, Bowery Boys, no child...

Without a Christmas...OR, is it, in fact, as a result of all the changes...Better stated, to reflect this trend...No Christmas without little ones...

Demo daze: As in the new demographics that seem to be taking over, as in first found on the ground floor or, to be more accurate by location, in the basements of many houses, where lots of stuff along with their owners, tend to gravitate, given the law of gravity...as well as centrifugal, a-parently, with so many of these gens, going, and then coming back, to live with their folks...."just until..." 

Christmas in Jeopardy: As in the answer to..."what RU waiting for...?!" One that might be posed to a contestant as well as all those couples, (gated, most likely) communities, countries, continents, that seem to be shrinking, otherwise atrophying, as in falling birth rates, coupled by not allowing any new young-uns...

Baby boom goes Bust! A lack of labor is followed by a labor shortage…

In, Secure: As in securely behind doors that are behind closed gates that are...not making the "Children are our futureš… " feel like it...We're talking about an uncertain future here, and there...one that might not have enough (kids) to go around, sing carols to all the oldsters, who may also be, as a result of cutting back, not only find themselves missing out on Christmas morn, but also when the Social Security check is supposed to arrive...

There's still time: As they also say, "There's no time like the presents..." You can start, by fooling around...as in "don't be so doggone serious!"

Hallowed out Halloween, Treats without Tricks: Now that's scary!

  "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... Distinctly Brinkley: who got called on whenever things around here, US, were on the brink... "Sow, David..." It's how I heard it, and still remember it, as he was asked to comment, well into the eve of what was casted to be his final telecast of this type, on the eve of a second coming...of the Clintons, their return to the White House...a second (merry) go round... "For the love of Mike!" While he was not shy of the microphone, having gotten used to one on his desk ...
