Santa better be packin' more than coal this year.
Merry Christmas Everyone!!
BTW, I think Santa wins the prize for worlds largest Tactical Man Bag. He's probably got a couple platoons of soldiers, heavy artillary and enough air power to easily defend the cookies and milk in that thing. Not to mention Transformers, HeMan and the entire Justice League.

Merry Christmas indeed.
However, if some guy comes trapseing around my house tonight in a santa outfit, he may have a significant emotional event on his hands.

Santa's an all around guy. Just got in awhile ago from Sealy. Been fighting that Houston traffic. 2,700,000 people in Houston and 2,000,000 of them were on I10 & US 59. I'll probably sleep too hard to hear anything.
MERRY CHRISTMAS

This here jolly fat man is about to climb into the ol' red sled (a rather faded '82 GMC
), then go home to spread some cheer.
Little Man is getting his first two-wheel bike, and lots of things to delight the heart of a 4 year old.
We did our part to boost Apple's stock this year... it's a three iPod Christmas for us (two 4 GB Nanos for teenagers, and one 80 GB video for Mom).
I don't know what I might be getting, but I strongly suspect there will be some goodies celebrating the
World Champion St. Louis Cardinals! Whoop!
Merry Christmas, everyone!

Russell wrote:Merry Christmas. I just got through reading this. I remember hearing about it a little bit in old history classes, however this is the first time I ever actually got to read a whole story about it. It's very moving, and it's too bad things like this won't happen now-a-days.
Thank you, Russell. I'd forgotten about that story. And thank you for closing it with Niven's brief poem:
O ye who read this truthful rime
From Flanders, kneel and say:
God speed the time when every day
Shall be as Christmas Day.

Merry Christmas to all and let's remember those on our prayer lists.
Russell, thanks for posting that. It's a great story and I recall seeing something on the History Channel about this. I seem to recall something similar happened during WWII, but on a much smaller scale.

I'm glad none of you located a "freezer full of venison" on your roofs.
