You might have noticed some Christmas cheeriness about NRO today. It’s the beginning of our two-day rollout of Christmas (and other) features. You’ll have a little extra time to read this stuff–our next homepage update after tomorrow will be on Dec. 29, a week from today. In other words, I plan to catch up on a year’s worth of sleep tomorrow, with the Christmas shopping happening on the 24th. That’s the plan. In the meantime, The Corner will be here and hopping (I know where our writers live, afterall) throughout.
