"More rapid than WES, his courses they came"
We have a clear winner in our Buck-a-Hit Day comments contest. Laurel Ann's Portland take on the classic "Visit from St. Nicholas" was the hands-down favorite among 100 readers who voted.
Congratulations to her on a most excellent entry, and now she gets to designate where $250 of our charity kitty goes. All we ask is that she choose a legitimate nonprofit organization that's recognized as a section 501(c)(3) charity. Laurel, who should get the dough, and if you don't mind our asking, why?

Thank you, Jack, and all of those who chose my "comment." I had a lot of fun writing it. I agree that this year's choices were excellent.
My charity of choice is the Family Dogs New Life Shelter. They are a no-kill facility that gives many dogs a second chance. We adopted our Miss Lilly, a corgi mix, from them in April. She's made a tough year full of unconditional love and a great amount of joy. Here's a link to their website.
