Happy Christmas to you too!

Um…Are we to infer that you will not be posting until 2003?

If so, why?

I want a 1,500 word essay on why whatever you have to do is more important than the SDMB.😃

Merry Christmas, everyone! Especially given all that’s happened the past few days, it’s a pleasure and an honor sharing a board with you! Now to come up with a new target for the snowball fight. . .

Oh, yeah, almost forgot:

Happy New Year!

So is it prawns and a BBQ at the Dollhouse today?

Merry Christmas everyone.

It’s been an honour and a joy to share this year with such a vibrant, caring community.

May your day be full of good food and good company.

And to all the G’doper parents out there, may you have managed to sleep past 4 am before hearing the squeals of delight from your little-ones as they discovered what Santa had left for them. 😃

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE
