It’s a pleasure to be a member of this wonderful online community, where I’ve learned so much, had so many belly laughs, and opened so many threads thinking, “Y’know, I always wondered that…” Best wishes to you all. ---

I’m kicking back with a snifter of 27 year old single-malt, the wife has dinner in the oven, the cats are dosing on my chair, the hampsters are up and running their little hearts out…Life is good right now. Many happy returns to all my fellow Dopers. No matter what our peccadillos and disagreements, we are a family. Dysfunctional, sure. But we have more in common than others imagine. Drink deep of the libation of choice, and may the spirit of the holidays fill you and yours with Joy and Happiness. **Silenus** , **deesiresjohn** , **Havoc** and **Pixel** ---

Happy Whatever-You-Celebrate to everyone! I hope you have had a good a time as I have. Yesterday was spent with family, today with friends. My husband and I feel very lucky to have had such a good time during the holidays. ---

It would take all evening to include all the possible religions, so, have a very joyous day and night. Aaaaand, what the hey, tomorrow, too.
