8. Happy Holidays

I really have very very little good to say about the holidays. I watch the materialist orgy with renewed awe every year and just pray some angry shopper doesn't mow me over in a parking lot in a post-consumer-frenzy rage. I am a big fan of internet shopping therefore and my favourite site for gifts is: http://www.savethechildren.org/gifts/. This year, instead of the run-of -the-mill greeting cards, scarves etc., they have posted some incredibly meaningful gifts, such as "Send a girl to school for a year" ($56!). The teens in your life may resent you, but hey!, they will anyway. Happy holidays to all!
