    Here is a picture of an old stereo console similar to what we had when I was growing up. We laugh about big screen TVs ,well we had big stereo consoles.

    To me it isn't Christmas without a Bing Crosby record, especially him singing White Christmas . We had the record and then I had a cassette, a CD and now I listen to it on the computer!!!

    A former McDonald’s employee was celebrating Friday after a Brazilian court awarded him $17,500 for weight he gained during his 12-year stint with the company, local media reported.

    The 32-year-old man, who was not named, said he weighed between 154 pounds (70 kilograms) to 165 pounds when he started working for the burger giant in 1996 but gained 65 pounds because of the free lunches given to employees.

    In the lawsuit, the man said he suffered from high cholesterol and muscle weakness because he was forced to eat food that was full of fat, sugar and salt. He also claimed to have been subjected to long working hours and psychological pressures.

    The ruling was signed Tuesday by Judge Joao Ghisleni Filho in Porto Alegre, Brazilian newspaper Folha de Sao Paulo reported.

    The judge said that while genetic factors and a sedentary lifestyle possibly contributed to the franchise manager's weight gain, this did not absolve the responsibility of the employer.
