With all the holiday merriment going on at our cyber-office Christmas party, we neglected to announce that the winner of our comments contest on Buck-a-Hit Day this past Wednesday was "Oregbear," for this comment. It was a most worthy entry, as were the other finalists. Thanks to those who commented, and those who voted for the best comment of the day.

Now Oregbear will get to steer $250 of my money to a charity of his or her choice. If he or she would please step forward and let me know who that might be, we'll get the check out quick.

And now, back to the party...
