Thank you, Ed and Kelly! :D

The virtual gifts given to many S2K members are great and I agree with them all, in fact I will give one of my choice to everyone mentioned. :D

I truly am grateful for my correspondence throughout the year (especially after Wednesday, February 5th and even more so since the Spring) with the top 166 members of this wonderful message board who come here [just about] daily to interact with me. :)

Thanks...popcorn is great and I'm still giggling over Paolo's gift. I am somewhat unknown amoungst you so the best I can do is wish on all of you that no matter your problems or need that atleast for a few days you get all you need emotionally, spiritually, and physically. If you get that, I'm sure you will carry enough with you the rest of the year to get through the worst of times. Hope everyones Christmas was Merry!!

Paolo is getting, from me if he ever comes back in here, subscriptions to IMPRIMIS, The Weekly Standard and CDs of all 25 years of William F. Buckley's show Firing Line, plus autographed books by Bill O'Reilly for good measure...and a year in that "underground paradise" in Tikrit to enjoy them.
