Confession: I am a Santa collector. I love Christmas, both for its greater spiritual meaning (the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ) and for its more secularized meaning (generosity of spirit). And for some reason, that love of Christmas has translated into an enduring affection for Santa.

I believe in him. Sort of.

In any case, all that means I'll be elsewhere Wednesday and Thursday, as I suspect most of you will be. Some of that time will be spent tracking Santa, though most of it will probably be spent enjoying the company of family here in Atlanta before heading to Tallahassee.

Merry Christmas to All! And to all a good night!
