It’s time to take a moment from cars and love our families and friends. For those who don’t celebrate Christmas, take the opportunity to love your family and friends anyway. Nothing is more important. Absolutely nothing.

Merry Christmas,

Now that all the gifting is done, I want to wish all of you a merry Christmas and happy Chanukah, too. My youngest daughter is dating a Jewish man, and I want to include everyone in the extended family. The best gift of all is spending time this morning with the family: oldest daughter and her husband, middle daughter and her fiancé, youngest and her beau, my wife, and her boss (Her Majesty the Dog). My sister and her wife are coming over for dinner around noon. It just gets better. I hope you guys can spend time with your loved ones, even if it is by phone or Skype. We will do that later with my wife’s brother and his family.

**“anyone else sick and tired of burl Ives and holly jolly Christmas?”**

I’ve been sick of that song since…probably…1975 or so, but the one that **really** makes me cringe is _Grandma Was Run Over By a Reindeer_. I immediately change the station if that moronic song is played.

Merry Christmas, happy Chanukah, happy Kwanzaa. As a cheapskate, I celebrate “Festivus”, you know, the holiday for the rest of us. . . Gotta go now, time for the “Feats of Strength”

Merry Christmas all and I hope you got what you wanted. Take my advice. Whatever you get act happy about it. I opened my present and it was a,new fill valve for the toilet. “It’s a genuine Fluidmaster”, I said acting delighted. You learn to do this after 35 years of marriage. " Why don’t you try it and see if it works?". Mrs. Triedaq replied. I can report that my Christmas present was installed this afternoon and it works perfectly.
