placeu2, you're being a bit naughly.

But placeu2, if Santa brought you a ticket, you wouldn't turn him down would you?! If so, please forward it in this direction--I will send my coal in return.

Bud...I did admit to being naughty, no sense in changing now.

Olive...I actually would turn it down if Santa showed up with tickets to Paris. Naturally my wife would then grab me by the ear (or something) and twist it until I agreed to go with her on the aforementioned free trip.

Sooooo sure, I talk big but I can't find my pants!

Budman, have you been drinking? You said naughly instead of naughty. I like that word, naughly.

Santa, I'll take two lumps with a splash of cream, please.

Olive,

One other thing. You can have my France tickets if.....you promise.....

to show me around those nasty, neighborhood degrading, tourist chasing, offensive places in the St. Pete and TI areas!

Santa, be sure to give extra coal to placeu2 this year. Meaning more than last years quota...

Santy baby, I try so hard to be nice but sometimes you need a little bad to shake things up a bit

Now for my goodies...2 first class tickets to Egypt to see the pyramids, followed by a trip to Sicily and I'd like to keep going endlessly at 5 star hotels for the next year or so.

Now isn't the hate France thing a little stale? I too have a friend that hates France even though she has never been there. It sounds so backwards, hating something you have personal experience of.

Ho Ho Ho Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!

travelinwifey, how colorful and "smiley" -- may all your wishes come true.

Tandoori_Girl -- Oops.

Hey Santa, I'm a bad boy so keep your fat ho ho ho rear end out of my freaking chimney and drinking my dairy products.
Merry Christmas

Cheers Budman May all your dreams come true too Gotta love those smileys

And of course I meant to write "no personal experince of". Perhaps we would start our own Fodors Awards thread... I nominate myself for most typos

There's a difference?

I'd plead the 5th if I hadn't drank it already.
