Happy holidays to you as well!  Yule was tedious--part of my now-ex-roommate's Great Airplane Drama--and Christmas doesn't look to be much better, so my holiday wish is that everyone have better holidays than I'm probably going to.

If you're in the southeast, it was pretty bad here - good weather but outbound flights got delayed because of destination storms and incomings got held up at their origins. Just another reason why I never ever travel (far) at holiday time.

Happy holidays, everyone.

I agree, I would not want to be travelling. I spent one Christmas Eve on a bus a few years ago and never want to do that again.

The first day, her flight was canceled because of snow in Chicago.  The second day, we got to the airport barely on time, but an airline employee made her late.  Yesterday, she finally got out and is now in Dayton, which is its own punishment.

I'm not traveling and by the looks of it neither is anyone in the South West of England. Horrible flooding.

Punishment for her, or for the people of Dayton?

Looks like I'm trapped here with you.

Greetings to all from Cornwall.

She'll be speaking to as few of them as possible.  She's not what you'd call sociable.

It would also kind of end our reason for being on this board.  And since I like hanging out with all of you, I've changed my mind.  I wish us all a moon hoax filled New Year instead.

I'd like to talk about a different conspiracy for a while, maybe one where I can contribute.  But for some reason, there aren't hordes of anti-Stratfordians crowding the place.
