As I have no way to send Christmas cards to everyone here - I just thought I would wish everyone a Happy Christmas and I hope a good prosperous New Year.
This will be my first Christmas without my family whilst being at home - so it will seem very quiet, especially without my young children - but I am sure there will be plenty on the web to keep me out of trouble

Our joint christmas presant (well, mine but she gets to use it; sometimes) is the XBox360... My wife bought me a wireless controller, rechargeable battery, and a battery charger for christmas; all opened already
...
I bought her a bunch of stuff over the last couple of months; and I fixed my moms TV, Satelite, and Telephone problems she's had this month for hers
...
All in all, christmas is all about my son this year, as he's yet to tear anything open yet

That happened to a good mate of mine.
An American* as it happens.
His wife got him to redecorate the whole house - fit an extension (a den? whatever the hell that is) and then told him to **** off on Christmas day.
Wow - that's a special sort of person that could do that!!!!
* Are we allowed to call you American these days? Or is there a more politically correct term?
(More PC madness) Radio one yesterday banned the words faggot and slut from the classic 'Fairytale Of New York' by the Pogues (& Kirsty MacColl)
"You're a bum, you're a punk, you're an old slut on junk, lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed," "You scumbag, you maggot, you cheap lousy faggot, Happy Christmas your arse, I pray God it's our last,"
Erm - Radio 2-3-4-5 ignored the censor.
Radio #1 'reconsidered' and today lifted the ban.
Sigh!

Please don't remind us Americans of the stupidity of our Nation with that Politically Correct nonsense woosie stuff.
Going back to the 1940s with regards to that stuff would suite me just fine.

American is fine. I hate this P.C. crap; what ever happened to Freedom of speech? If you don't want to hear it, don't listen to it. A den is basically a "private" family room (or office that you don't want to associate with work)

Merry Merry Christmas back at you all.
We're spending Christmas with friends this year, down in Melbourne, FL. We got ourselves a PS3 for each other. It's sitting under the tree, all wrapped up with a few games - just driving us crazy!!
Hugs to you all - I've missed you. I'll do better next year.
I do think about you all though - regardless if I visit or not.

Merry Christmas Mark - where have you been? Lapland?
I'm now waiting for bed-time so I can get all the prezzies in from the garage - including a damned heavy pool table!
Normally, I dread the early start on Christmas morning, but this
Laser Challenge Pro might be fun
Especially if I'm still loaded from tonight
