Bummer about the Great Santa Scandal of '08. Mine's been delayed at least a while longer, though the last tooth extraction (from under the pillow) was a close call. And, on an unrelated note--love that you're reading Geek Love. I adored that book when I first read it (what, 20 years ago?) and now you've made me remember it and I can read it again (and thanks to my sieve brain, it will be just like the first time.)

I well remember the joy of finding them out! So, parents of small ones, don't worry about it, just give them a wink, like, 'isn't this stupid?' and then leave your kids' goodies available on the closet shelf. They'll be so empowered!<br /><br />And if you really want to empower them, buy them pet rats instead.

As in, they can rip the crap out of eachother trouble??? Just thought I'd mention it...

Hurrah! Everytime the CFO gets thin lipped about imminent puppy, I point him in the direction of Fussy, where lizard, tortoise, bulldog and now hamster live in perfect harmony. They do, right? Mrs K? MRS K???? Dearest Mrs Kennedy,
