Today it is Christmas, it’s time to forget,
The rising foreclosures and national debt,
Don’t think about swaps or about CDOs
Forget “mark-to-model” and new market lows.
Forget Hank, Ben and “Dubbya”, and CNBC,
Forget bailouts and stimulus, forget the Big 3.
Derivatives? Who needs them- forget what they are.
Forget credit crises both here and afar.
That’s stuff’s for tomorrow- forget while you may.
Enjoy food, enjoy family- no cares for today.
It will be there tomorrow, don’t ever you fear,
But Christmas, dear Christmas is just once a year.
So unwrap some presents, have holiday cheer,
Merry Christmas from us and a Happy New Year.

Isaiah 9:6
From everyone here at Doom Castle, a very Merry Christmas.

Merry, Merry!! I have two feet of wet snow in my Oregon back yard. White Xmas? Be careful what you wish for!
Greetings from Halifax!
At nearly 14 months, grandson Callum in NDG Montreal is doing everything but walking. Maybe today
“And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him … .” (Matthew 2:11)
John-
Show off!!!
By the way, my oldest son started walking right at about 14 months. He was sitting in his dad’s lap and I said, “Walk over here.” He did, and that was the last he ever crawled. I was worried he might be a little slow because it seemed like the baby books said that was late, but as you know, he’s one bright kid. I don’t worry any more. : )
