I wasn’t going to post this, but I keep giggling at it, so up it goes. The Christmas songs are playing through the mall, and I either tune them out or get annoyed by them. But I think if they played these tunes, they’d get my attention…and probably the attention of a few gazillion angry …

Hey, It’s Tradition!
And now, Gill’s apparent holiday VC takeover continues. Every year around this time people gather around, put up decorations, and sometimes drag out those awful sweaters with Santa doing the hula.

Merry…Christmas?
So um, guys? Where did 2013 go? Who ate it? It feels like we’re just getting warmed up, but here we are, getting ready for Christmas. Exactly how did that happen? I started writing this yesterday when we were in the middle of one hell of an ice storm, in which the cops are telling …
