Goodbye and Good Riddance 2005: the Year of the Penguin
Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Christmukkah, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering. Oh, and 2005? Don't think we've forgotten about you.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Your post, Trudy, is the best Christmas present I could get this year. I'm so glad!
I'm not sure if you got my email yet, but there's a card as well, that got covered up by the express label. If you still have the package, you might want to dig through the label and tape for it.
Two days by USPS Express from Alaska to NYC. Not bad. It gives me hope for the rest of the stuff I mailed, even though it was priority.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Santa brought it.
I read this as "Santa bought it." I thought, "What? Santa's dead?!?"

I thought, "What? Santa's dead?!?"
Santa's been dead for years now, it's an entirely elf operation now. The elfs used their toy factories to construct an army of Santabots for public appearences, but it's just an elaborate facade. The scary thing is that current elf regime is lead by a fanatical faction that broke away from the Kebler party in '89 and have pursured a plan that takes the elfs from just maintaining the commercial christmas traditions to seeking world domination. They secretly have forged alliances with Canada, Switzerland, and Luxembourg (the Axis of Elfdom) to further this goal. Not that you'd hear about any of this from the liberal media.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I thought that Santa was bought out by the Germans. In an economy move, the Germans let go half of the elves. The elves, knowing only toymaking, opened their own one-elf toy shops in smaller towns, where they sell genuine Santa-quality toys for half the price (or even less).

That's what they want you to think.

The Keebler Elves have detailed bios on the Keebler website: [link] . Click on the button above "Meet the Elves," and then each tab of the book that appears has a bio for each elf.
And all I can think is -- that's a paying job! Someone got paid to write bios for the Keebler Elves! Where do I apply?

I bet they omitted elves with substance-abuse problems, like Smackie.
