I don't think that too late is too late, do you? also known as "redemption through untimely grace"

I notice that the Christmas holiday is upon us, and I've only sent out "work" Xmas things and not "personal" Xmas things. I love the rush of sending out holiday cards at the last minute, so I run this simple poll to obtain addresses of people who might wish one. I'm rather an opponent of the "acquisitive" nature of such things, so please don't feel that you need to reciprocate if I send you something. Also, I "should" have many of your addresses here, there, or yon, but it would assist me if you'd inscribe it here, because this would give me a one-stop list from which to work. My own address is no secret--it's 1505 Landsford, Allen, Texas 75013 USA. So here's the poll box coming up. Inscribe your name and address, boldly, swiftly, and with a decisive typestroke. The management reserves the right to observe Orthodox Christmas, Christmas in July, Presidents's Day, or any other procrastination-friendly holiday in fulfiling the purposes of this poll. Void where deep space. Did I mention I got a freeware Moog emulator? I love non-sequiturs at the holiday.

This is the stray extra box, which I always find distracting, because it usually says "tell me anthing", and because I can never figure out what people want me to write in the "tell me anything" boxes. Is it some odd ritual of forced confidences? Is it the place to prove that one is (or is not) Dorothy Parker? Is all life a 90 x 90 character epigram? Why did they make both Holiday Inn and White Christmas? Why is Pretty in Pink the same plot as Some Kind of Wonderful, with the ending changed? Why is the classic movie channel playing a Cagney gangster film, when I want to see a holiday movie? Why do I still have a solid handful of unmailed sea shells? Have you ever seen the rain? Let's resolve to communicate in 2006!
