Merry Christmas from Denver

[dep]

quoth Ted Ozolins:
| Seasons greetings to everyone. I've just got home from Edmonton
| Alberta. This was perhaps the greatest Christmas anyone could have
| given my wife. Being adopted at birth and having spent many years
| searching , it all came about and she met her brother, sister, inlaws
| and all the outlaws for the first time this Christmas. Being on the
| outside looking in, I realized that night, that Christmas at the
| Benedetto home was from the heart and not from some department store.

it's wonderful when something like that happens -- when christmas has a 
non-retail meaning. it happened here this year, too, and it adds a real 
dimension to a holy happyday.
