Ahhhh Christmastime. Or, to be politically correct, the HOLIDAY SEASON. "AHHH YES, the eternal symbol of secular holidays..." sez a friend of mine, as he sees the huge fake be-candy-caned tree in our History teacher's classroom.

IT'STHEECONOMYTHEY'REALLBUREAUCRATS.

Ahem.

But we all have been victims of this blighted cesspool of a stockmarket. (And I promised meself I wouldn't be judgmental...) The best thing for us, I believe, is to be optimistic and continue to celebrate during this time. We have a /whole lot more/ to be thankful for than money. Like food. And air. And the ozone layer (which may or may not still exist in the next few years, but enough of this).

All right, I'm done preaching. Now, GO EAT SUM PIE.
