There is no Santa so I have decided to get myself a couple of wonderful rare memorabilia from the QE2. Not cheap but rare collectibles always come with a price. These rare collectibles will be my 2008 Christmas gifts to myself. There will be no disappointment there. :-)

What? No Santa???? You must have been a very nauty boy. Don't tell the rest of the members here that there isn't a Santa. We won't believe you.

For Christmas, I want Santa to bring me a full-time IM biz so I can officially leave my old job behind.

Thanks

I want Santa to bring me some Love,Christie.(What a great play on words!)
And Pat, you already have Richard's and mines heart,even though since he and I are both married it must remain unrequited!

Oh wait, you didn't mean us!
And of course, Concorde Warrior,as that Jeff guy on Survivor says:"I got nothing for you".

I believe in Santa Claus! He is the personification of the spirit of giving, of hope, and aspiration.

In The Year without a Santa Claus, I love the part where Santa Claus heartfully sings "There's no question in my mind that he does exist!" That has got to be one of my all-time favorite lines anywhere in all of the literary arts just because it's so surreal. It's as if I were reading along in Pride and Prejudice and during one of their garden walks Elizabeth turns to Mr. Darcy and says "Wait a minute... Do we really exist or are we just fictional characters?"

I don't know if all of you have seen that cartoon with the mice as many million times as I have, so since it's less famous, I'll give you a quick run-down: The nerdy poindexter too-smart-for-his-own-britches brainiac mouse writes a letter to the editor of the local paper explaining that Santa Claus doesn't exist, and Santa Claus takes offense and decides he won't be giving any presents to anyone in the whole town. (Nice, huh?) So the others convince poindexter to believe in Santa and to fix the town's special clock that was built to placate Santa with Christmas music.

The mouse cartoon has an interesting musical number that gives an intriguing argument against skepticism:

There's more to the world than meets the eye,
when doubt's in your mind give your heart a try,
let up a little on the wonder why
and give your heart a try.

What would Spring be without the Easter Bunny?
Like a rainbow that doesn't end in money.
And a Valentine would certainly look stupid
without a cupid
so let his arrow in your heart.
That would be a start.

The musical number "I Believe in Santa Claus" (from The Year without a Santa Claus) has a similar theme. The skeptical kid's dad sings about seeing Santa himself as a kid and hearing Santa say to him the following:

"So you're too old for Santa Claus?"
he said with a smile,
"Then you're too old for all the things
that make a life worthwhile.
For what is happiness but dreams,
and do they all come true?
Look at me and tell me, son,
what is real to you."

Wishing a Merry Christmas, and Happy Holidays to all.

Thanks

What a gorgeous poem. Yes, you're never too old for Santa.

  No, don't eat car engines or yarn....but need the car running so I can buy the goodies for the holidays and buy the yarn for the kiddies. As well as to go to classes and work.
  
  Serious about the car. It's very difficult when your only transportation goes out on you.

That Pat is soooooooooo picky. She won't let me play matchmaker with her either. Sigh. She needs a particular person. No fun. I wanted to sent her out on a bunch of blind dates. Quit being so picky

For me, I'm not picky at all I accept anything at all

(almost)

Pat, give me this guys phone number. When I'm through with him he'll be banging your door down and proposing.
