News Merry Hanramawanzamas, readers!

My humbug cigar-chomping editor, after a long day of sealing donation envelopes to MoveOn.org and spit-shining his electric automobile, climbed out from under mounds of coal and the scalps of young journalists and shouted, "Wheatley! Write me a Christmas post, dammit! Something about snow, presents, good will toward men!" I, being new to the Atlanta area — and just really, really old — am still confused by this Christmas tradition you Southerners choose to celebrate. Nonetheless, I agreed. Since I know only a little about snow and nothing about presents, I thought I'd aim for the "good will toward men" part.
From everyone here at Creative Loafing, happy holidays to you and everyone in your life. Thanks for picking us up, visiting us online, and continuing to show that you give a damn about Atlanta. We wish you the very best holiday.

dangit Thomas, quit telling everyone how old we are, i've suffered so much age discrimination in 2007 that i'm defiantly poised for double doses in 2008 and i obviously didn't place in sinmaster, shoe shiner Simmon's short story contest, so that's the last time i'll try to slip a non fiction story in a fiction story contest you guys are too smart for me, thanks for the tutorial on botswanian investments, i was startin to wonder how you could be unfamiliar with the south and unfamiliar with snow at the same time, next thing you'll be telling us there is no santa clause or bbib county...
