Tis the Season…

…for what? What exactly is it the season for? On one hand, I’m kind of a pessimist about Christmas (at least, Christmas in OC). There’s no snow. There’s very little “holiday cheer.” And there’s an awful lot of stress and commercialism. Seems like what could be a beautiful concept has been perverted into a Hallmark holiday, perfect for retailers and not so perfect for anyone else.

Of course, that’s the pessimist in me. Tonight I had my Forum boat party … I just love all the people in my Forum (including the much-missed M Go), and it was great just to spend time with them. And there’s family event … the friends coming into town just to see you …. great things that truly -are- in the spirit.

Okay, enough philosophizing (yes, it’s a word. I looked it up.) Some random things:

1) Major updates to the website, including all new pictures of Spain and Morocco at www.f8fotos.com.

2) Does anyone watch Sleeper Cell: American Terror? Did you see the finale tonight? What a trip… good show, though, I enjoyed it.

3) A couple of choice pictures from my new computer’s camera are below for your viewing enjoyment. They got quite the laughs tonight on the boat. It’s Tiffany, Stacie, Boaz and Eden:
