X-Mas? Really?

Why don't we get it? Financial crisis of historic proportions, and holiday shopping has merely slowed...what's it gonna take to make us learn. A local news story offered tips on talking to your kids about why they may be getting less this year. Seriously...our biggest fear of the holiday season is whether or not my 8 year old is gonna be pissed he didn't get a Wii AND a Playstation 3? In the words of a 21st Century Hawaiian philosopher -" We went beyond where we should've gone". Leave it to my eight year old to put it all in perspective:

"I hate Christmas...(why we asked)...because I get so many presents and there are kids that don't get any"

Exactly...
