OHMYGOD… they’re back. In a few days, the 2026 Winter Olympics will be coming from Milan, Italy and from Cortina d’Ampezzo, an Italian ski resort that is as popular with billionaire skiers as Epstein Island was popular with billionaire pedophiles. I hardly got over the 2022 Olympics and they’re back again. Here’s what I remember of the 2022 games.

Worldwide gross sales of Mattel’s Barbie Doll fell once again this quarter. So far in 2025, Barbie doll sales for Mattel have seen a significant downturn, with double-digit declines in Q3 sales and increased unsold inventory. It looks like it’s over for Barbie. She’s on life support. Mattel (Barbie’s parent corp.) — is trying desperately to keep her alive saying “Barbie has been brain dead for 65 years so why is her boyfriend Ken so anxious to pull the plug, now?” Ken, whose

I repeat this column every year. It’s about family and memories. This Christmas Eve when I’m cooking for over 40 members of my family,I will be thinking that, like my grandmother did so many years ago, I will be cooking up sweet memories for my grandchildren to have for the rest of their lives ... It Wasn't about Christmas Day for us. Christmas Day was about turkeys and hams and cranberry sauce. That wasn’t our food. The holiday ads of the time showed illustrations of waspy-l
