Lady A’s Charles Kelly says Christmas shopping online is always easier for him … “I always really kick myself when I like, go to the store to pick out gifts for my nieces and nephews, and then I gotta ship it and I realize I spent more on the shipping than I did on the gift. And that’s where online is the way to go.” Amazon dot com.. just a couple clicks and you’re done…I get it..

If you understand the term “Flexing” then you’ll understand this next story…The NY Post says Tom Cruise had his private jet take cakes from his favorite bakery in Los Angeles to London for the cast and crew of ”Mission Impossible 7”. The 300 Christmas cakes flew more than 5,500 miles. A source tells the newspaper, “Tom wanted to give the team on Mission: Impossible a treat for Christmas and decided that only cakes from his favorite bakery in LA would do. He organized for the shop to make 300 cakes especially and they were then flown back to the UK on his jet.”
