You know, seriously, what I'd really like some Christmas is to not even have the "gifts," but rather just the time to sit back holding my wife, the tree covered with lights, the room lightening ver subdued and Christmas music playing softly in the background. Be nice if it was snowing softly out the window.

Just peace. That would really be the gift.

I think that's why Thanksgiving is really my favorite holiday. Not so darn commercial. Can you believe Christmas stuff has been in our stores more than a month now? Plain ridiculous.

Just my thoughts.
