I know that it's a few days early but I wanted to kick thing off by wishing each and everyone of you a very Merry Christmas and Happy Holiday season filled with happy , healthy, family memories. Times may be getting harder in the near future and we need friends and family to band together for all things to improve. I try to give a few dollars to charity each year and see that locals benefit from that. I want to thank each forum member that has been a part of discussions on THE FRET, it gives relief to daily stress and ROBERT I say thanks to you for providing such a site. May each of us have a better year in 09.:dude: :dude: :rockon: :beer: :bravo:

Merry Christmas!

I celebrate 4 Christmases every year (Mrs. Kat's parents, as well as mine, divorced and remarried).

We had the first one last night. We started a new tradition last year of making tamales from scratch. So, we rolled tamales, drank a beer or two, and cut up and made general fools of ourselves. Probably the best time we've had in years.

I ate so much that I got a tummy ache, which still hurts this morning. It was worth it.

3 more to go. Everyone have a happy, AND SAFE, holiday season. Don't forget a designated driver, and watch our for the amateurs on the road.:AOK:

Haha, we do two-- one with my folks and family (yesterday, this year at my brother's in Orlando), one with the inlaws (on Christmas up in Atlanta). Mrs. Krashpad's birthday is on Christmas and her dad's is on Boxing Day.

We have always had a tradition of opening gifts Christmas morning and once the first child was capable of climbing out of the crib, that tended to be around 3:00AM. Even as they got older, up until they were 13, I think it was never later than 3:00AM. After that they would give us to a more respectable 6-7:30 AM.

Well, this year my son has to work and starts at 7:00AM, so I suggested we break tradition and open on Christmas Eve. My daughter is rebelling and insists that we stick with tradition. She feels my son can get up, open gifts, and then go to work. I tried to explain to her that it really sucks to open gifts and not be able to sit back and take it all in.

My daughters next solution is that my wife and I have Christmas with him on Christmas Eve and then again with her on Christmas morning. So we have a problem at the Strum house. The only good part of that idea is I don't have to pack up the car in the morning, I can just sleep under the tree until round two arrives.

I will be in California over Christmas. That will be a different experience for sure. We have a 3 day pass for Disneyland, but we don't have any specific plans otherwise. We won't have any gifts this year, because the Disneyland trip is "the one" gift to all of us.

Christmas is different this year. Our family has been destroyed by our step family when my dad passed away last spring. Things are going well though and we are having Christmas at home, it is just a whole lot different. :D I am sorry for the negativity but it helps to let it go.

I wanted to thank you all for the joy that this site has brought to me and thank you Robert for keeping it joyful and for all the time and effort you put into it.

Merry Christmas to those that observe it and Happy Holidays to all.
God Bless:rockon:

Mrs. Krashpad's birthday is on Christmas and her dad's is on Boxing Day.

Mrs. Kat's B-Day is on the 28th, and she gets short changed every year, gift wise.

Mine was originally Dec 26th, but I falsified my birth certificate when the doctors weren't looking and changed it to May 18th.

Well, it's already Santa's Day in this part of the world. Wishing everyone a Merry Xmas, hope the turkey turns out as expected. In Japan, no-one bothers with cooking a whole bird. KFC is the chicken of choice. There was a long queue at the one near my place, The Colonel will be pleased. :)

Merry Christmas to all my friends here at the Fret!

This is indeed a time of gathering with family, sharing gifts of love and joy and, for those of us who believe, worshiping the birth of our Risen Savior! To those of you who don't believe in Christmas or Christ, I wish you also joy, happiness and love during this blessed time of year!

I can actually stand to hear this song this year as I haven't been hearing it three times an hour for the last couple of weeks.

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!

Ah, the mornings carnage is over, the wrapping paper's strewn about the floor. Mrs. Bloozcat is glowing with all of her new presents, and I am busy digging through my new "gear."

I hope that everyone's Christmas is as wonderful as they've hoped it would be.

It is turning out to be a great Christmas morning, new flat screen for the newly assembled computer, a CCR easy tab for Guitar book, two guitar shirts, two new pocket knifes, I won a great new digital game camera, the son and daughter in law are home with us for a few days, sun is out and warming up may hit 50 today.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!:rockon: :rockon: :rockon:

Merry Christmas everyone! I hope everyone enjoys time with family and/or friends. The kids got the Wii here, and we are all having fun with that, and I received the MXR Carbon Copy analog delay, along with some new Livewire patch cables to clean up my pedal board with, and a pack of ultex picks. We also received a huge snowstorm and had more than 2 new feet on the ground and over 3 or 4 feet drifted about. It is awesome!
