David,

>I hope y'all have one!

Thanks. Just did, and still am. I'm about to make my world-famous creamy eggnog -- my daughters have turned it into a family tradition and are insisting that I make up a batch. (Of course, I had already bought the ingredients just in case). :-)

According to tradition, we watched a video of "A Christmas Carol", this year featuring Patrick Stewart. We liked it, but decided that our all-time favorite is still the version with George C. Scott as Scrooge. We may have to watch it later today, followed by the Muppets' Christmas Carol.

Best wishes to you and yours. And may God bless us all, every one.
