Dear Season's Humbugs,<P>
Shopping sucks and so do my picks! I keep searching for a handicapper helper, but alas, there is no cure available.<P>
Congrats to those who've already clinched a playoff spot - Fetish and BeeBee. Rot in hell.<P>
Thanks to the Butt and Big Byte for the Xmas party. Next week is our last at Shaner's before we gather again for the Super Bowl (location info on site later).<P>

May the Ghost of Christmas Past eat the cookies you left for Santa,<P>
