Santa in Atlanta, Like an Icon

Seasons greetings from your friends on the newsletter staff. We sincerely hope you are enjoying a safe and happy holiday season, while somehow surviving the stress of the shopping rush.

The hustle, bustle and tussle, the traditions that you must follow, can cause one's blood pressure to be hotter than a paper plate inside a microwave oven, not to mention the mood swings that become wider than Uncle Smokey's hips. Just remember to take the time to enjoy the spirit of the many festivities going on as well as reflect on the "true" meaning of the season.

Last week for example, we attended the K-3 Christmas presentation of St. Rose of Lima's Church in Roseville. Our young artist pen pal, Katie (see back page, original art work used by permission of guardian), did an extra special, extraordinary, fabulous job as the second wiseman. A great time was had by all (sorry we had to miss SK's holiday bash that probably out bashed them all).

Also thanks to we discovered a TV show called "Allo Allo" played on Friday nights between 10- 11 on Channel 2. It's a British comedy based in a Frenchman's pub, about his relations with the Germans and British during World War 11. It's a much better version of "Hogan's Heroes. " Check it out.

We want to take this opportunity to thank the many who contributed to the newsletter this past year. We enjoyed hearing from you, and appreciated all the effort and hard work. Also, thanks to those who have already gotten their end of the year lists in. So far all the contributions have been hn reading and entertaining. Next week's issue will be most excellent. A reminder for those still making your list and checking it twice, please get it to the warehouse by Sunday, December 26. The fax number is 644-8566. We truly hope to hear from everybody.

This week's issue is one of our sporadic "theme" efforts that has won us awards in the past. We take a long look at those wacky prehistoric creatures, the Dinosaurs. We hope you learn something as well as laugh and cry. . Enjoy the journey.
