The end of the year is near. Time to get more joyful, thankful, less self focused and pretend I'm not freaked out about all the stuff I haven't checked off my to-do list for 2006. It's a time to spin my emotions and think of happy things. For me, the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree brings back many fond memories, of visiting friends and family. Christmas is a great time to visit New York City. Whether you're looking for window shopping, holiday events and performances. I just wish it was a little colder out. It feels like San Diego weather out- where is the snow?
Oh look, yet another Christmas TV special! How touching to have the meaning of Christmas brought to us by cola, fast food, and beer... Who'd have ever guessed that product consumption, popular entertainment, and spirituality would mix so harmoniously? -Bill WattersonI wish we could put up some of the Christmas spirit in jars and open a jar of it ... -New York Times, 25 December 1937
From a commercial point of view, if Christmas did not exist it would be necessary to invent it. -Katharine Whitehorn
