From central Pennsylvania, where it was so cold yesterday our kitchen water pipes froze and we had to put a space heater on a ladder in front of them to get them going again... who cares when there's a wonderful list like ours! 
(It worked, btw -- the water is flowing!)
Merry Christmas, Happy Chanukah, Joyous Kwanzaa, and everything else! And a happy, healthy, PEACEFUL 2009 to us all!!
Hugs for everyone!!
