    Well done!

    We have almost got ours all done as well.

    Just a few little things for the boys Santa sacks to go, but all the big stuff for them is sorted. Plus the nieces and nephews are done as well!
    I don't know why he saved my life. Maybe in those last moments he loved life more than he ever had before. Not just his life - anybody's life, my life. All he'd wanted were the same answers the rest of us want. Where did I come from? Where am I going? How long have I got? All I could do was sit there and watch him die.

      I wonder if Hit Men R Us as a 2-for-1 special?

        Wouldn't it be easier to just go and finish your shopping?

          ...and probably less expensive. Do you know what those guys wanted to charge me?!? Gee, you'd think that human life was valuable or something.

              Perhaps you should go into the business yourself?

                  I like seeing my siblings, but they don't like gtting together for Christmas... so the lst two years I have just astaye dout here.

                  I get lonely and depressed though.

                  The other aspects of Christmas aren't important to me.

                          While I like Christmas Carols/etc and all. It isn't much of how the season is celebrated, maybe a day of it tops. Christmas is mostly a time of rampant comercialism, with a bit of family time and a tiny bit of religiousness.

                          And Christmas is just a time that is traditional to remember, it has no real religious signifigance at all.

                            I'm pretty sure it is actually a religious holiday - no matter what the shops and the PC cranks have tried to do with it.

                              But it isn't the actual birthday of Christ. It's a Pagan festival (Winter Solstice and Mithras' Day) that was taken over.

                                I like giving gifts... I very much do not like getting gifts. I don't like holidays at all.
