Bonehead Tip

Tim O'Brien
Scope it, as in Horoscope: You will get this strange feeling that someone is looking at you. In fact, staring at you. You would not be wrong.

Bonehead Tip of the Day: Even though you think it, tell someone that "Baby It's Cold Outside" and "Santa Baby" does nothing to help keep the true spirit of Christmas alive.

The List: Top TV Shows
1. "Sunday Night Football" - 24.2 million viewers
2. "NCIS" - 19.9 million
3. "60 Minutes" - 18.8 million
Source: Nielsen.
Notes: Football is kicking tail this year. If this keeps up look for a highly-rated Super Bowl no matter who plays. And then, if a major market team gets in, wow. "NCIS" continues to be the consistent ratings king when it comes to drama. Whatever CBS is doing, do not wreck it. In fact, CBS, which has the highest average age for viewers, is sometimes laughed at by advertisers and the younger generation. Might want to rethink or at least remember that demographic. And in the brilliant move department goes to Fox with their plan of airing "Glee" after the Super Bowl.

Trivia: The smallest shark sure has a long name. The name is Tsuranagakobitozame. It means "the dwarf shark with a long face." Why the long face? Nevermind, let's move on. Somehow, from Venus came venereal disease. A lobster's teeth are in its stomach.You can die of laughter. Just ask Calchas. No, you can't because he's dead - - and if he wasn't he would be way too old to move, say something, or ...well, you get it. Now, back to the item at hand. Calchas died of laughter when he realized he outlived the predicted time of his death. Now, that's funny.

Closer: Yep, the Flash Mob has now turned into one. So, look for a regulation and outright ban soon.
