Subject: Merry Christmas

Every year, you read in the papers at the start of the shopping season how all of the merchants feel this is going to be the "Greatest Christmas ever !". Odd... I thought the first one was.

I love Christmas -- the festive spirit; the gathering of friends & family; the foods, cookies & candies; and especially getting to play with the Grandchildren's new toys.

I'm afraid I'm longer so sure about Santa Claus being able to deliver what everyone asks for. This year when I told him what I wanted, and he replied, "Me too !!!"

The spirit of Christmas lives on in the US, even in such places as Las Vegas, gambling mecca of the west coast.

Of course there, Santa gives all the boys and girls the odds on receiving the gifts they ask for.

We've hosted a couple of Holiday Parties already at the Moore residence.

The other nite I told Mrs JimJr that the eggnog needed some more alcohol, & she suggested that I just breathe on it a while.

We got my one Grandson (lil' Laine) a complete Marine's combat outfit. It even had all the necessary weapons including a toy mortar.

I noticed that Mrs JimJr wrapped the present in paper that said: "Peace on Earth".

When our kids were growing up, Mrs JimJr and I loved to watch them hang up their stockings on the fireplace mantle.

Mostly because it was the only time either of them ever hung up anything.
