   I just remembered that I ordered a bag of actual coal to use as runners-up prizes in the costume contest in our Nightmare Before Christmas sing-along and it never arrived. It seems it was delivered and stolen. (Mail theft is a problem in my building.)

   Someone stole my COAL.

   Definitely going on te naughty list.

     Well, you don't have to hope for them to get coal

     @jwz One time I had the same idea so I biked up to the steam train ride in Tilden Park and asked if I could have a few lumps of their coal. They said they had transitioned to diesel years prior. So embarrassing! So instead I went to the Candy Baron on Pier 39 and got some coal candy.
