It's closing in fast. There's no escaping it. We're not talking about Christmas... we're talking about the day that you have to stop procrastinating and get off your butt to go gift shopping. We were just at the mall, and the sheer volume of people who left things until the last week and apparently don't have jobs to go to on a Friday afternoon was frightening. Not that we weren't working hard. *cough* At the mall. Yes.

Anyway, we recommend good body armor and an emergency airlift evacuation contingency plan if you're going this weekend. Having your will in order might not be a bad idea either. We saw a fight to the death between two irate shoppers dueling over the last Show-Me-the-Money-Elmo. Sadly, one of them knocked over a stack of Spongebob Action Figures, and they were both killed from the ensuing "wacky pants action". If you make it out alive, you should hurry home and relax with your loved ones with a warm drink in front of a fire, because that's what it's all about anyways. Even if no one got you a Spongebob this year.

P.S. Don't forget we have more Christmas drinks up.
