    You guys know headphones/earbuds are a thing, right? I wear them everywhere I go to avoid having to listen to all kinds of stupid conversations and the constant one-upping of war stories over here (they work so well that I don't have to hear the fat DACs, to lazy or out of shape to leave the shade of the smoking gazebo, yelling that I'm not allowed to wear them outside). I can't wait to get back to a country where I can, once again, become blissfully ignorant of the stupidity that surrounds me at all times without the assistance of earbuds. I'm sure they would work excellent for blocking out that horrible and repetitive Christmas music as well.

    One for every occasion:

    A great early present for anyone you care about.

    Bayawan actually appears to have a competition going on about modelling scenes of bible / Christmas history on small stages. Got into that more or less by accident last year and it was quite impressive.

    Xmas can be really cool once in 2,000 years or so. The trouble is here in the Phils no-one can find 3 wise men or a virgin. I rest my case.

    It did never come up in my mind to make, for instance, a Sunday trip to visit these places and see what is the result of the local designers for a Xmas tree.

    Best Christmas tree for me is a char-coaled one.... 4 months of computerized carols in the mall and all the things attached makes me wonder if its worth to move to south west Mindanao for a those months a year...

    Well everybody their fun, i will just switch off my hearingaid the spare occasion i have to be in Lee or Citymall. How a really nice holiday got so ruined with four months of shopping spree, jingle bells and red hats every year and people don't start a riot i don't understand.

    Can you imagine working a 12 hours shift and hearing 2342124678564 jingle bells every day. I think this is what they try at gitmo to break the hardest terrorists there.

    Well, not to ruin other people's 'most wonderful time of the year' so happy holidays everyone!
