So, we've been on something of an impromtu hiatus here at DYHP. As life can sometimes get in the way when writing unfunny material isn't your full time gig. Sadly, we fell victim to the curse of having to be grown ups, and go to work, deal with "life", and pay bills. And when we can't pay bills, running away to Mexico to marry a woman named Guadalupe as a cover, and rocking a sweet stache to go incognito.

Who is this mystery man?

With the new year approaching, we hope to bring you more of the funny and comedy genius our dozen or so loyal readers have come to expect (Hi MOM!) and take less spontaneous trips to Mexico (Yo siempre te amaré, mi Guadalupe!) With that said, we have big news! We are happy to announce the NEWEST episode of the Drifters is now complete! It's a story of horror, suspense and intrigue all wrapped up and placed under your internet tree! So, click here, to view the newest episode of the Drifters, entitled "A Cult of Radio Personality".

Welcome to more of the odd and insane. When you love reading as much as I do, you come across many a book in your search to quench the thirst of the mind. So, this week we talk about a few of the most offbeat books that I've ever seen. Now, after reviewing my choices, I've come to realize that all, except for our first entry, are slightly NSFW, with some of the taboo topics they cover. However all images included in this article are safe for work. So, please, show your superiors as much as you'd like, I'm sure it'll help you get that raise.... pun not intended, but quite appropriate.

If you do alittle more digging, like clicking the links to the Amazon pages, then you  may find some more interesting pictures. But enough stalling, onward to some books that will certainly liven up your coffee table...

Mullets: Hairstyle of the Gods
by Mark Larson and Barney Hoskyns

Honestly, this book speaks naught but the truth. No other hairstyle has been rocked by the likes of the NASCAR fan, hockey players, Roman rebels, all the way up to David Bowie. It's motto of "Business in the front, party in the back" has been around for centuries and these 2 intrepid writers have set out to educate the world on all that is mullet. I hope they follow up this smash hit with "The Flock of Seagulls: I don't care if it was the 80's, What the hell were we thinking?"

It's time once again for the Jam of the Week! Now, for those 5 people that read this blog, you may remember I promised a song on Christmas day. Sadly, in the hustle and bustle of the holiday week, I was unable to post it. I apologize for my tardiness, but I really wanted to share this song with people, because it's such a well written and pretty song. The song is Christmas Time by the Smashing Pumpkins from the compilation album A Very Special Christmas Vol. 3.

Now I know what you're thinking... Smashing Pumpkins? Alt Rock? Is this just like the Kinks, with a very fast version of a Christmas tune?

Welcome once again to everyone's favorite blog, DYHP's Pantsless Babe of the Week. I've moved this week's blog to Saturday because I wanted it to fall exactly on Christmas. Now if you remember from last week, I said that I was working on something special for today, and I'm happy to say I didn't disappoint. So gather the family and feast you eyes on this week's special...

This week I tackle the real issues. Christmas fashion, kitty cats, family squabbles, and child abandonment are all waiting for you in this week's Letters. So, pull up a chair and let's solve some problems!

Last Saturday, I went Christmas shopping. Here are a few choice images and thoughts from my adventure.

As I leave the house, I walk down to the end of the drive way to pick up our trash can, which was so lovingly thrown aside by the sanitation workers, and I find, at the end of our driveway, in the snow still fresh from the overnight snowfall, the local children in the neighborhood are getting into the Christmas spirit.

'Tis the season for Yuletide rocket ships

Every week I'm going to talk about something I hate, something that's overrated, or something that just flat out sucks. This week we discuss Christmas movies. They're the cheer filled holiday spectacles that are supposed to teach us all a lesson about giving or Santa. But the only lessons that we end up learning are to stay away from Whoville and that "reindeer games" means teasing someone who looks different then you. You also learn that it's OK to keep slaves as long as you call them elves.

But tiny human trafficking isn't the reason Christmas movies suck..

Today, I wanna talk about homemade gifts. The most heartfelt of all the gifts, the homemade gift is sure to make the recipient break down and cry, in recognition of the blood, sweat, and tears you poured into this magical little item that is now proudly in their possession. They're inexpensive, sweet, and the best way to show you love someone this holiday season. The best part is, you can create homemade gifts for anyone in your family... spouse, mom, dad... even the kids!

Merry Christmas Baby! We're only 4 days away from the best holiday of the year, right up there with Thanksgiving, and I wanted to share another song I always have to hear to make my Christmas season complete. This week we feature the one and only Boss himself, Bruce Springsteen.

Now, at this point, I know Justin has probably closed the window or just sighed to himself in disappointment, as he is not a big Springsteen fan. I, however, grew up listening to the boys from E-Street since I was a wee lad... so Justin can suck it. My dad and uncle have been to almost every Springsteen concert since '75, and I've accompanied him to one .The first set of concerts at Lincoln Financial Field the year it opened, and Bruce's last show of that 4 night homestand. So, The Boss has a very near and dear place in my heart with any of his music, let alone his awesome versions of Christmas songs.

OK, so it’s almost Christmas. Time is fleeting! You have a few couples left on your list, and you have NO clue what to buy them.

Well, here I am to save the day, with some AMAZINGLY wonderful ideas of gifts to give to your paired off family and friends! Enjoy!
