Yes, it's that time of year again. A time for joy. A time for pleasure. A time for snow (for some of us, at least). A time for TV specials. A time for really insipid music. This is a time when little kids get together and ask the all important question: "What did you get for Christmas?"

No doubt your inbox is full of journals covering this day from every single angle, from the joyous and wonderful to the crabby and irritable. Thus I don't think it's possible for me to write something that would stand out. Therefore, I leave you with a simple message.

Merry Christmas and happy holidays.

Thank you.
