I hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable holiday, however you choose to celebrate this time of year. I'm athiest, but I do enjoy the commercialism of giving gifts... because that's what love is all about.
Seriously though, sometimes I wish I still lived away from home during the holidays. Christmas alone was fun...if I remembered to buy food before all the stores closed. Now my two year old already knows what this holiday is about. Well, not the Christ part, but the presents part. Which is worse?

Feliz Natal e próspero ano novo a todos!

"Forty-five moments of perfection translated through a cautionary escape into the perils of the mundane, the inherent entropy in ultimate order, and the potential threats of eternal, unchecked apathy in civilization; all cloaked in musical expression so thoughtful, creative and forward thinking that almost a quarter-century later, few can even comprehend it, much less match it." (autothrall)

What's the "christ" part?
Everybody gets to be Jesus for Xmas and have people bring them gifts... isn't that what it's all about? What the hell is frankensense anyway? Does it smell like that hippie perfume Pachulli?
If you wanna kill the joy of christmas, just work retail. My spirit was killed over 25 years.
I do enjoy giving gifts.... and for all of you I give you my "presence".
