Wow...one of the best posts ever, Mark--I wish I'd written it! ; )Seriously--I think this all the time, and it can't be sttaed too often, to look to real life. Apart from that, I just plain love your tale of a Kennedy family version of "A Chirstmas Story"! Priceless. Have a swell time tonight and all week--and I love your daughter's Santa portrait--the kids never leave off the crucial "ho ho ho"--you notice? Thanks for everything!
