I just listened to The Shepherd, as I do every Christmas Eve, which means that for me it is now Christmas.
Happy Christmas, everyone. Here's hoping that next year will be better than this year.

Merry Christmas!

I love the smell of rotaries in the morning. You know one time, I got to work early, before the rush hour. I walked through the empty carpark, I didn't see one bloody Prius or Golf. And that smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole carpark, smelled like.... ....speed.
One day they're going to ban them.

I'm with Norgarth. 4-6 inches of snow over the last 24 hours. I also received a bottle of Scotch and plenty of theobromine. And books to add to Mount Tsundoku.
Merry Christmas, you filthy animals.

Bump for 2021 - a bit before the broadcast so that folks can listen to the reading over the air if you want to.

It's 20 minutes to midnight as I write this, so a slightly early Merry Christmas to everyone in the forums who observe.

Just saying goodbye to my brother's and sister's families at my folks' place. Big dinner and all, I'm feeling festive. ^_^
Merry Christmas!

Bumping this thread early because CBC Radio will be airing The Shepherd today instead of Christmas Eve.
