Pure and simple, Christmas is my favorite time of the year. Even if you take away all of the religious and social significance of the holiday, Christmas, more than any other time of the year, really makes me appreciate all the of people in my life who make it richer.
Take time this holiday season to make sure you tell those who are important to you that they are indeed important to you. Take an extra 5 minutes to nap, the extra minute to hug that aunt, the extra serving of turkey, the time to call your mom and dad, the effort to connect with friends you haven’t seen or spoken to in a while… do it all… and be richer for it.
To all of you, Movie Blog readers, I’d like to say “THANK YOU”. Thank you for giving me a place to talk about my favorite topic (the movies) and for talking back. For giving me the gift of conversation and ideas, of debate and discussion. For all of this, I thank you. You guys are all great, and I appreciate the fact that you take time out of your day to come over here and participate in the conversation with us. You’re the best.
So Merry Christmas… and to quote one of my favorite holiday films… “May God bless us, every one”.

Let me drop my festive greetings and good wishes to you all too. Have a great time with the family and friends, and remember to treasure everything you have and everything you receive. Eat well, drink well, leave ill feelings alone, and let the people that you care about know.
Have a Merry Xmas, and a wonderful New Year. Here’s to seeing you all next year.
