Watch that potpourri on the stove trick. When we were trying to sell our first house, I decided to follow some "tricks of the trade" I read in some real estate rag. Filled the house with fresh flowers, scrubbed the toothbrushes 'til they shone and set apples bubbling in a cinnamon broth on the woodstove, to permeate our perfect home with the scent of apple pie. I got so caught up in hiding dirty clothes and stuff under the beds that I forgot about my simmering potpourri. It burned horribly, wafting black burnt pie smoke through the home just as the prospective buyers arrived. They were most impressed.

Ho Ho Ho.
This is Santa.
And, in case you all haven't figured it out,
you were Bad this year.
So. Guess what I brought to all you naughty children?
Yes.
Taht's right:
A nice fat, ferocious Bear.

Now where's my cookies?

Janice was wondering if (for thermal purposes) she was gonna take a bath. I just found the snowball on the cliff's egde, waiting there, and gave it a nudge. You're a collateral casualty, nothing personal; a consequence of SI redirecting my posts.
