Christmas is just a few measly months away. Soon there will be snowing outside and Christmas carolers and lights, trees and all kinds of festive fun.


So let me be the first to wish you all a very merry Christmas!!

[bigred]Merry Christmas, Everybody!![/bigred]



Love from Francine xoxoxoxo

So here it is, Merry Xmas,
Everybody's having fun
Look to the future now
It's only just begu-u-u-unnn

- Slade

Someone always has to start this during the summer!

Are you hanging up a stocking on your wall
It's the time that every Santa has a ball
Does he ride a red nosed reindeer
Does a ton-up on his sleigh
Do the faries keep him sober for a day.
So here it is Merry Xmas
Everybody's having fun
Look to the future now
It's only just begun.
Are you waiting for the family to arrive

Are you sure you got the room to spare inside
Does your granny always tell ya
That the old songs are the best
Then she's up and rock and rollin' with the rest.
So here it is Merry Xmas
Everybody's having fun
Look to the future now
It's only just begun.
What will your daddy do when he sees
Your mama kissin' Santa Claus
Ah ah

Are you hanging up a stocking on your wall
Are you hoping that the snow will start to fall
Do you ride on down the hillside
In a buggy you have made
When you land upon your head
Then you bin slayed.
So here it is Merry Xmas
Everybody's having fun
Look to the future now
It's only just begun.

That's a wonderful song, Googa. Thank you.

Christmas will be here sooner than you think, Chris.

Yeah, but this is worse than those stores who start the Christmas decorations in September!

Sheesh!

Do you think it's too early to put Christmas decorations up now? Just to be prepared?

I haven't had my Halloween or Thanksgiving Turkey yet, so yes, it's too early........

Exactly.

Don'r forget, Easter will be here shortly after Christmas, Robert. Then it will be Augest again and almost time for Christmas.

One season at a frickin' time, okay? We're still celebrating...August.

Evil September is coming up as well.

Happy Halloween, Chris!

One month at a time, Francine.

Excited for your first Earth Christmas, Francine?

I've actually had a few here, Prowl. But yes, I am always excited about Earth Christmas.

I can't wait to go bobbing for broccoli and opening gifts and celebrating Christmas time. There will be decorations, snowflakes and loads of hayrides... or is that sleighrides?



Anyhooo, it'll be a blast. And it's only a few measly months away.

I stand corrected. In addition to getting kickbacks from the Steinbrenner and broccoli lobbyists, Francine is also an agent of retail!

I've never heard of bobbing for broccoli for Christmas before ET Girl started her campaign to push broccoli on us earthlings. Makes me wonder.

I actually like broccoli.

Christmas sucks here in Australia. It's always hot.

Families feel obligated to do a hot Xmas lunch, but no-one feels like it.

And as a kid, you'd watch all these cartoons and sing songs about these joyous, snowy Christmases.......then nothing but burning heat.

Why Santa, why!!!!

I think Australia is cool, Prowl. It's a little like Canada in a way. Your Christmas sounds pretty good.

Btw, you can always put fake snow on your rooftop like they do in L.A.
.

Bobbing for broccoli is a treasured pastime in ummm.... Iceland, Brazil, Nunavet, North Carolina and Markusvale New Hampshire.



So eat your broccoli and break out the candy canes and sing some Christmas carols, Mr Scrooge!
