Christmas thoughts

I love Christmas. I love everything about Christmas - the lights, the tree, the gifts, the songs, the Nativity scenes and story, just the whole thing.

The only thing I don't like about Christmas is trying to put out a newspaper.

It is the deadest time of the year for sports events (which is a good thing). But man, filling up a paper can be hard some times.

For that we're thankful to the Independence Bowl and the local high school basketball tournaments.
