Bugger. Let’s try that again . . . ---

As I sit down (after several glasses) to use the wonders of modern communications to litter my now-sloppy Christmas greetings to all corners of the globe, I certainly don’t want to forget our tireless mods and admins. Merry Christmas! God willing, none of you will see this until the 26th or 27th! ---

Neither rain nor snow nor sleet nor the advent of pagan solstice rituals shall stop the Moderators from their pointy rounds. Thanks for the greeting, and it’s reciprocated. ---

Merry Christmas from me to the Mods, Admins and everyone else. _starts passings shots of Wild Turkey bourbon to all present in this thread_ ---

Every single time I read these boards, which is pretty much daily except on my days off, I think to myself, “Man, I’m glad I’m not a moderator.” The mods spend, or rather _donate_, amazing amounts of time and mental energy to keeping these boards running smoothly, and I appreciate it. Thanks, mods and admins! Here’s wishing you a merry Christmas, a happy Hanukkah, a righteous Ramadan, and a Kwaaazy Kwanzaa! And also a new year that sees all your dreams fulfilled. (Except that filthy one about Martha Stewart. Don’t make me get specific.) This goes out especially to **Coldfire** , who has promptly and helpfully answered the few e-mails I’ve had occasion to send him. ---

Thank you, and Merry Christmas to all! I’ll get to see the new year before most of you… I’ll let you know how it is… 😉 ---

Happy New Year to you **Xash**. I’ll be in India for New Year too, but won’t see Mumbai 'til around the 5th. I’m having an uneventful Christmas somewhere off the coast of Andher Pradesh.
