Thank you, and the same to you, yourself, merry christmas! I hope everyone receives many mac-related gifts
I just got the pink iPod mini in the mail that I had bought for my girlfriend's gift, wish I had bought it for her last year, since they have been discontinued demand has gone up up up and I had to pay $300 for the thing And no, she wouldn't settle for a nano, it had to match her gameboy (rare pink anodized aluminum model that was only available in japan)
I don't know what I'm getting from the little woman this year because it's not Christmas yet and, since we're not heathens, we don't open our gifts before Christmas; neither do we give each other lists of what the other should buy for us. So it is a mystery to me and a fun one at that.
I've bought and wrapped 32 presents so far. I think I am done now, but there are still a few more days.
My old high school can't use the words X-mas, christmas, Hanukah, Kwanzaa, or any related words anymore because it is "discriminatory"
I find this hard to believe, since almost all of the "War on Christmas" is based on half-truths and outright lies(the schools in Plano never banned red and green clothes, major business chains will not fire employees for saying "Merry Christmas," the ACLU is not part of a plot to end the celebration of Christmas, that town in Michigan never banned red or green colors, etc).
(If my parents, who were communists, could have a Christmas tree and send Christmas presents, then I don't see any reason why the rest of us shouldn't.)
May [insert your God of choice] see you OK this post-solstice, and may you get great presents, and may you not argue with your family and may you eat yourselves into a coma.
Happy Christmas all Christian folk, Happy Christmas all it's-been-Christmas-for-1000-years-so-why-stop-now? folk, Happy Holidays everybody else, apart from all die-hard-we-remember-Northern-Europe-before-the-Christians folk, to whom may I express my wish that you pass a Happy Rebirth of the Undying Sun.
Happy Christmas everyone! After a very stressful month I think I'm finally getting into the Christmas spirit, of course it didn't hurt that we went out to lunch at work today on the boss and the waitress left a brand new bottle of Patron on the table!

So domesticated. . .
This year, it's overpriced fruit packs for everyone. Except that I live on the Indian River, so it's actually pretty cheap.
Wish I was going, I wanna see Steve's keynote!!

Oh you two haven't had THAT fight yet.
That's okay. It doesn't typically come until after there is a house payment.
Then the lists are mandatory.

It's raining in Missouri this Christmas Eve. \
Aftershock: Three ho's.... I laughed so hard I snorted at that one!
