Seasons greetings to all...



BEWARE -- The final days of darkness are upon us... BUT Do not despair! Help is on the way...

Here is a PDF file of the holiday card I made this year. You may enjoy it (and feel free to send this as a retaliatory card to all the folks who sent you a card but you didn't).

It prints on one sheet of 8.5 x 11 and is folded into quarters. I find it covers most of the bases as you can check the appropriate boxes for the right flavor of holiday correctness.

Best wishes for a bright NEW YEAR!

and........a Happy Festivus to you too, John and everyone else out there.  Almost out of time to set up my shiny new Aluminum pole.

The Raabe family will soon be airing our grievances...  8-)

Wait, is that hooves up on the rooftop I hear....

Oh, just the rain. Shucks!

Hooves on the rooftop---- Oh rats, I'll bet the deer are in the garden again.

Was poking through the forum and noticed I was the only one on, and suddenly realized - Duh!  It's Xmas morning!    So a very merry Christmas morning to all of you who celebrate it.  May you all get lots of fun & useful stuff.

And where else should everyone be but here, Ailsa---- My excuse is that I stayed up too late playing here last night--- oh - that was this morning too.  Happy whatever you do to you too.  

Whatever it is that I do I just make sure I get lots of toys.  Everyone else gets toys, so darn it all, I'm gonna get toys too, and time off --half days, whole days, whatever---They won't get me to do a full weeks work in one sitting until after New Years.     ---I guess I mainly buy into the commercial part of the season and try to leave the rest the way it really happened-- my mom and dad told me the truth about Santa way too early - I was devastated - I just lay there crying in my crib- giant sobs wracking my body- --

"OK, mom, I cried, through sup sups ( you know -- those funny little jerky cries) tears flowing like rain down my slobber covered little red cheeks :'( -------would you mind explaining who the firemen pulled from the chimney last night if Santa isn't real?",  I screamed at the top of my little baby sized lungs.  There --- I've got her now --- let's see her squirm out of that one.  I thought for a moment there she lowered her eyes to the floor, a slight murmur escaping her lips---------no ---------- I guess I was mistaken.  I was her first child so she wasn't on to baby talk yet -------- didn't even realize what it was that I was saying.  I'll teach her, I thought --- I'll wet myself----------There---that'll show her --no Santa - humpf---what was she thinking --telling me something like that.  Wow - I had just discovered how to stay warm on a cold winters night.   :-/

Shhhhhh  - she'd kill me if she knew I wrote that ---- on second thought, she'd probably expect it.  I know, ------she should have sat on me when I was born.     :-/

Let's just say that was my Festivus rant.

Happy Festivus for those of you who don't buy into the commercial season of the year.
