I was here with you little ones as Santa makes his way around the world. All right. We've
been putting this off all morning and we better get around to it because I'm so embarrassed.
I forgot my cookies for the cookie exchange. Calvin, do you buy that? Do you buy that she forgot
her cookies? I was here when she realized it. So I believe her. Thank you. I said, I'd be
seriously, I came in and sat down and I was like, oh my, because I saw Calvin's container and I'm like,
I actually forgot to bring my cookies. You know what I did bring? I brought the recipe book
that I got. What cookie did you make? I made the chocolate cherry cheers. Okay. Mine don't look
anything like that. Oh, trust me. Mine looked not even remotely close. Yeah. Mine looked nothing
like the book. Mine looked like something with a big blob of chocolate on top, but they taste
pretty good. They can last till Monday. I'll bring you some. Calvin, what did mom, a mom
but not make? Yeah. So she made her sour cream cookies. Oh, I don't think they're especially a
Christmas cookie other than that. She only makes them for Christmas inputs, writing green sprinkles
on them. And Greg Bach, what, what, what are these? Those are called peanut butter thumb prints.
Peanut butter thumb prints because you put a thumb print on the cookie and then you put a chocolate
candy on top. What, what chocolate candy did you up for? Mini sneakers. That's a good choice.
Yeah, they couldn't say the name on the, in the book. So, so it's like, it's, it read very generic,
like peanut butter thumb print cookie with chocolate candy topping. Like, so yeah, it's, um,
it's a peanut butter cookie with, um, with a mini snickers on top. With a mini snickers on top.
You can't go, that's hard. It's hard to go wrong with that. Just be careful when you're eating it
because it kind of falls apart fast. Those look, those look really good. All right. I will,
I will dive into those in just a little bit. It's 1154. We've been to get around to it. It's time
for it, Calvin. Oh, there shouldn't be a thing. Today, it is the, you know why I pulled you over
addition of this shouldn't be a thing. Headline reads driver stopped in Wyoming for covering car
in Christmas lights from Ben Hooper police in Wyoming, reminding people to decorate their homes
for Christmas. Instead of their vehicles, after a driver got pulled over with his car covered
in Christmas lights, it looks great. They're amazing. It really looks cool. It's a Mustang,
Ford Mustang. They actually, the Wyoming highway patrol put it up on social media,
showing this Ford Mustang pulled over by a trooper who noticed the entire vehicle was decked out
in Christmas lights. The post reads quote as the holiday season approaches, we would like to
remind you of a Wyoming statute. The statute in question states that no person shall drive or
move any vehicle or equipment upon any highway with any lamp or device. They're on capable
of displaying a red or blue light visible from directly in front of the center thereof. Well,
that cleared it right up. Well, are they right? Do they write ballot measures for Wisconsin?
Sure. My goodness. The post said that while decorating a car might look cool and be festive,
we would like to remind you it is illegal. Please remember to stay safe when celebrating this season.
I think this should be a required thing. I saw two of them this year. I think they're legal if
you use white or amber lights. You can't use color lights, but I saw two because when you pass
them, they're covered in tape. Oh, I'm sure. How are they? What is going out of that car?
You look closer like, oh, they're covered in lights. Oh, exactly. Interesting. Then you realize,
I got to keep my eyes on the road because I am now staring at someone's car. And that's a good
point. And I can understand. Yes, I can understand why they don't want all of us to be driving around.
Yeah. Moving Christmas trees on wheels, but the picture looks pretty good. The picture is very
pretty. How do you think they attached all those patients glue tape probably is Mustang probably
because you can use you can use a gaff tape or a blue tape that will not damage surfaces. That's
like painter's tape will do that. Okay. Okay. I mean, it probably won't last you very long.
It's going to, especially if you're driving in a mag Mustang, it's going to rip off if you're
driving fast. That's right. Aren't you faster? I would say tape is going to be the best option.
Well, that wraps up today's episode of, oh, there shouldn't be a thing. We have news coming up next.
We will be off Greg and I on Thursday and Friday. Dan Shaper is going to be sliding in on Thursday.
And Matt Rothschild will be here on Friday. We will be back on Monday morning. Thank you, Greg and
Calvin and all of our engineers, soupmeister and everyone across civic media without you guys
