   I’ll always remember one special Christmas.

   I got up at 6 a.m., went to look in my son’s room, and he was gone.

   You fit in just fine. I celebrate Winter Solstice. Family celebrates Christmas. I’ll put up my wrought iron tree this coming weekend; they decorated all their trees on the Thanksgiving break. I say “Celebrate the uniqueness that is you!”

   Girlfriend must have had a medical power of attorney. Or she was her partner’s legal spouse.

    Actually, no. I couldn’t stand it. After Beverly Hillbillies and Petticoat Junction, it was too contrived.
