■ But because you’ve been a good reader, we have a few gifts for you now:
1. A download of the full Final Report of the Select Committee to Investigate the Jan. 6th Attack on the United States Capitol (which dropped too late last night for Chicago’s morning papers).
2. The Associated Press’ list of key takeaways from the 814-page report …

3. Men Yell at Me columnist Lyz Lenz’s revelation of her readers’ pick for Dingus of the Year.

■ The other by the late Mayor Harold Washington.
5. And, last but not least …… a special holiday news quiz, brought to you by The Conversation. Your Square columnist got all but one right. Can you top that?
