GOOD MORNING, BLOGTOWN! Knees jerkin', girls workin', work it till your stomach hurtin'. LET'S GO TO PRESS.

Special Blogtown Notice! We're still technically on vacay this week, but don't worry! We'll be popping in now and then to give you some rough, dry Blogtown lovin'. (Hmmm... didn't come out the way I planned.)

Newt Gingrich is busted for another lie; this time for saying his first wife wanted a divorce, when it was actually him, because allegedly she "wasn't young or pretty enough" to be the first lady. OUCH.

Because North Korea is crazy, South Korea sends a "citizen delegation" to pay their respects to the late Kim Jong Il.

In Nigeria, 35 people die in a terror attack on a Catholic Church.

Twenty-three protesters die in Syria after government forces fire on them... WITH TANKS.

Because they are such forward thinkers, Iranian officials are now considering hanging an alleged "adultress" instead of stoning her.

A Texas family are gunned down in their apartment while unwrapping presents on Christmas day... by someone dressed as Santa Claus.

Two female Occupy Nashville protesters get into a knock-down, drag out brawl—with each other—on Christmas day. (Maybe they were play acting the struggle between the 99 and one percent?)

Is Apple working on a hydrogen fuel battery that could potentially stay charged for weeks?

In sports, the Trailblazers kick off their season tonight at home against the 76ers! Tune into Blogtown tonight at 7 pm for some hot, special guest live blogging action from Bobby "Fatboy" Roberts!

Now here's what's going on in your neck of the woods: Enjoy today because we have a rainy, windy, balmy week ahead!

And finally, a few people who did not get what they wanted for Christmas.

Even more (sigh) here.
