Merry Christmas To All...

So once again, we await the clatter of the big man on the roof and the squeals of the wee ones as they reap Santa's bounty. I trust you all had a dandy year. One with little strife and much joy. Maybe? Maybe not? It matters not as soon the New Year will offer a chance for both creation and redemption; temptation and salvation. As last year, I would like to acknowledge all the good people that have contributed to my life...both to the good and to ta udder. Everyone's life touches everyone and though I can't speak for the others on this list, you all have left a lasting impression on me. So, in no particular order.......

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to.....
