Peace On Earth And Mercy Mild, God And Sinners Reconciled
 

I was going to do this in variating reds and greens, but then I thought that it was too much trouble. I had a big speech prepared, but then I drank too much. I had this big thread planned but then I made up an excuse. All I can say is

Merry Christmas!

Or, Happy Hanukah! Or, Crazy Kwanzaa! Or, Tip Top Tet! Or, a sad and solemn Ramadan.

I think I make this thread every year. I just want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas. Or any of the above. Like I've said before, Christmas means a lot to me - there's snow, there's good feelings, there's lights and presents and food and an excuse to dig into the whiskey early...

In terms of Food Bins, Holiday Shelters, Toys for Tots... I hope you guys have full hearts. 'Tis the season. In terms of Christmas Cheer, people are already getting started.
