Gary's Bauble

In case anyone ever gives you something like this...........throw it away.
Or, give it to someone else.
This is the evil Christmas Tree decoration that Gary gave us.
If you don't know what I am talking about, then take a look back at my blog entries.

Just found this quote from Dave Barry on my calendar and thought I would share.

The Christmas season can be a difficult and stressful time for a certain group - a group whose needs, all too often, are overlooked in our society. That group is : men.
Why is it so hard on men?
There are many complex reasons, by which I mean: women.
This problem dates back to the very first Christmas. We know from the Bible that the Wise Men showed up in Bethlehem and gave the baby Jesus gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
Now, gold is always a nice gift, but frankincense and myrrh - at least according to my dictionary - are gum resins.
Who gives gum resins to a baby?
The answer is : Men.
The Wise Men, being men, didn't even START shopping for gifts until the last minute, when most of the stores in the greater Bethlehem area were closed for Christmas Eve.
The only place still open was Big Stu's House of Myrrh.

Brilliant.
