*I can't believe it came so fast.

Anyways boys (and girls), I'm going off the grid here for a few days to spend some quality time with my family, so I wanted to say Merry Christmas to everyone while I have the chance.

I hope everyone here has a really great holiday this year - lots of good friends, family, food and drink. Enjoy yourselves and be safe. I want everyone back here healthy and in one piece after this weekend! (though I expect a few damaged livers - mine will get a workout for sure )

Take care, everyone. Merry Christmas!


*yeah I lobbed that one up in the air - consider it a Christmas gift

You guys know why Santa can't have kids, don't you?

He only comes once a year and that's down a chimney.

*rim shot*


Happy Holidays everyone. Have fun... just don't get caught.

...into the light of a dark black night.

Happy Holiday (of your choice) to all of our AppleNovans! I hope you have a fine holiday season full of friends and family (the birth kind or the chosen kind), and that there is much good food and drink and excellent presents*.

I'm still trying to convince my family that just because they're Christian and open their presents tomorrow doesn't mean they should make me wait till tomorrow given that I'm a pagan and Yule already happened on the solstice. They're not buying it.

You could try pointing out that Jesus was likely born in September, and the whole Dec 25th bit was just chosen to "help" recently converted Pagans. I doubt they'll buy that either, though. Non-traditional stuff is such a hard sell to traditionalists!

Anyway, Merry Christmas or Happy Winter Holidays (whichever gives you the Warm Fuzzies) too all, and to all a good night.

When I was a kid, people who did wrong were punished, restricted, and forbidden. Now, when someone does wrong, all of the rest of us are punished, restricted, and forbidden... and the one who did the wrong is counselled and "understood" and fed ice cream.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all.

Or as we say locally "Feliz Navidad and Feliz Año Nuevo"

Christmas is basically a katamari holiday. It's, like, a bunch of other holidays' traditions, rolled together.

So happy Katamarimas. *** Royal Rainbow! ***

I'll go with what I celebrate and wish everyone a Merry Christmas. If you celebrate anything else, Happy Holidays.

Christmas really did come up quickly this year. I guess buying a house really just took my attention away from it.

Merry Christmas to everyone! Thanks another great year here at AN with all of you. I do pray everyone has a blast this season no matter what "holiday" you're celebrating.

I always thought it was "Prósporo Año Nuevo" (or, as my middle school science teacher used to say, "Roast a roll on your new navel").

Oh, and..... Merry Christmas from Bing and Bowie

Just woke up to my very first white Christmas. Took 41 years, but that's something I can now mark off the "wanna see" list.

BTW, I received the "Making of The Empire Strikes Back" book. Holy crap...it's AMAZING!!

Merry Christmas everyone. I was hoping for a White Christmas, but apparently we're getting snow tomorrow.

The girlfriend got me a trip to Florida to see the Phillies during spring training. I can't wait. Something I've always wanted to do.

I just talked to relatives in Nashville who are also enjoying a rare Christmas snowfall.

I told 'em that my version of a White Christmas is a beach with sugar-white sand that's about a 10 minute drive from here.

Merry Christmas Everyone! Well OK it is just about to turn boxing day here but i thought i would just nip in with the Christmas wishes.

Hope Santa was good to you! So what did everyone get?

I am getting some money towards a new DSLR camera. I think i am going to go for the Canon 550D but i am tempted by the 60D, just for the quicker shots per second. But we will see. Although after playing Supreme Commander 2 i might spend the money upgrading to the ATI 5870 for my MacPro as it seems to struggle on the big maps.

Gifts (among others): new jacket; new overhead light (antique chandelier, actually) for dining room; Doonesbury anthology; new socks; Dire Straights Live DVD. I made out like a bandit....
