Thanks Josh, and the Joy of the Season to you and yours.

As for the Savior, he can kiss my a**. I'm hanging one less
stocking on the fireplace this year and I ain't got much use
for no Savior. Besides, isn't Easter supposed to the most
blessed of seasons in the Christian faith ?

I feel for your loss, but death happens to everyone, it's part of life,
it's the reason "I" need a Savior.

Don't mean to get into a religious discussion on here, please don't take
it wrong, I'm just feeling your pain, not trying to preach to you, or
convince you of anything (can't do that even if I wanted to, no "one"
can "convert" another person to become a Christian, I wish all
Christians could/would realize this)

Besides, isn't Easter supposed to the most
blessed of seasons in the Christian faith ?


No, we actually don't have a "blessed" season, 365 1/4 days of the year
is blessed.

I just wish your pain will fade, as soon as possible.

Very funny indeed. Quite possibly the best. Too much time alone on the
water?

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to one and all.

MERRY CHRISTMAS
 
Yes, thank you everyone, and Merry Christmas to you all as well. I read
Steve's hilarious disclaimer on this holiday season, and thought I'd add
this little antidote that I found a few years back, It's pretty funny as
well. But once again, Merry Christmas too all!!

Doug



The recent announcement that Donner and Blitzen have elected to take the
early reindeer retirement package has triggered a good deal of concern about
whether they will be replaced, and about other restructuring decisions at
the North Pole.



Streamlining was appropriate in view of the reality that the North Pole no
longer dominates the season's gift distribution business. Home shopping
channels and mail order catalogues have diminished Santa's market share and
he could not sit idly by and permit further erosion of the profit picture.



The reindeer downsizing was made possible through the purchase of a late
model Japanese sled for the CEO's annual trip. Improved productivity from
Dasher and Dancer, who summered at the Harvard Business School, is
anticipated and should take up the slack with no discernible loss of
service. Reduction in reindeer will also lessen airborne environmental
emissions for which the North Pole has been cited and received unfavorable
press.



I am pleased to inform you and yours that Rudolph's role will not be
disturbed. Tradition still counts for something at the North Pole.
Management denies, in the strongest possible language, the earlier lead that
Rudolph's nose got that way not from the cold, but from substance abuse.
Calling Rudolph " A lush who was into the sauce and never did pull his share
of the load " was an unfortunate comment, made by one of Santa's helpers and
taken out of context at a time of year when he is known to be under
executive stress.



As a further restructuring, today's global challenges require the North Pole
to continue to look for better, more competitive steps. Effective
immediately, the following economy measures are to take place in the Twelve
Days of Christmas " subsidiary:



"The Partridge" will be retained, but the pear tree never turned out to be
the cash crop forecasted. It will be replaced by a plastic hanging plant,
providing considerable savings in maintenance.



"The Two Turtle Doves" represent a redundancy that is simply not cost
effective. In addition, their romance during working hours could not be
condoned. The positions are therefore eliminated.



The Three French Hens " will remain in tact, after all, everyone loves the
French.



The Four Calling Birds were replaced by an automated voice mail system, with
a call waiting option. An analysis Is underway to determine who the birds
have been calling, how often and how long they talked.



The Five Golden Rings " have been put on hold by the board of directors.
Maintaining a portfolio based on one commodity could have negative
implications for institutional investors, Diversification into other
precious metals as will as a mix of T-Bills and high technology stocks
appear to be in order.



"The Six Geese-A-Laying " constitutes a luxury which can no longer be
afforded. It has long been felt that the production rate of one egg per
goose per day is an example of the decline in productivity. Three geese
will be let go, and an upgrading in the selection procedure by personnel
will assure management that from now on every goose it gets will be a good
one.



"The Seven Swans-A-Swimming" is obviously a number chosen in better times.
The function is primarily decorative. Mechanical swans are on order. The
current swans will be retrained to learn some new strokes and therefore
enhance their out placement.



As you know, "The Eight Maids-A-Milking" concept has been under heavy
scrutiny by the EEOC. A Male/Female balance in the workforce is being
sought. The more militant maids consider this to be a dead end job with no
upward mobility. Automation of the process may permit the maids to try
A-Mending, A-Mentoring or A-Mulching.



"Nine Ladies Dancing " has always been an odd number. This function will be
phased out as these individuals grow older and can no longer do the steps.



"Ten Lords-A-Leaping" is overkill. The high cost of Lords plus the expense
of international air travel prompted the compensation committee to suggest
replacing these groups with Ten Out-Of-Work congressmen. While leaping
ability may be somewhat sacrificed, the savings are significant because we
expect an oversupply of unemployed congressmen this year.



" Eleven Pipers Piping " and " Twelve Drummers Drumming " is a simple case
of the band getting too big. A substitution with a string quartet, a
cutback on new music and no uniforms will produce savings which will drop
right down to the bottom.



We can expect a substantial reduction in assorted people, fowl, animals and
other expenses, Though incomplete, studies indicate that stretching
deliveries over twelve days is inefficient. If we can drop ship in one day,
service levels will be improved.



Regarding the lawsuit filed by the attorney's association seeking expansion
to include the legal profession ("Thirteen Lawyers-A-Suing") Action is
pending.



Lastly, it is not beyond consideration that deeper cuts may be necessary in
the future to stay competitive. Should that happen, the board would request
management to scrutinize the Snow White division to see if Seven Dwarfs is
the right number.

I'll get it out after the holidays, the manufacturer is closed until the
first of the year.

Mainly Ken, I just wanted to get you some to use, you don't have to do
anything to get it, or after you get it. It's just a great product for
fishermen to use to repel insects

Merry Christmas
I was contemplating buying a new high end reel for myself. I've decided
agianst it since there is no sales before Christmas on fishing gear.
After Christmas there is some sales. Also at the upcoming fishing show
it is possible to get a good deal. Often the retailers may be
overstocked in one item and will offer a discount. Walmart here has no
high end reels. In the USA does Walmart stock high end reels? I look
foward to moving on to using a baitcaster next year.
