I have far too many people to wish a blessed Christmas, but that won’t stop me from trying like last year. First, we need some music…

I would be remiss if I didn’t thank Brad V and Ed Driscoll for the linkage. This year, I tried to comment on as many of the blogs listed above as I could and not leave it up to chance, WordPress’ auto-pingback feature, Townhall’s very-fluky auto-trackback feature (which resulted in some double-ping/trackbacks), the suddenly-fluky Google Blog Search or Technorati to deliver my Christmas wishes. I know there’s still people I missed, so to them, and to those of you who missed my annual posting of St. Luke’s account of Jesus’ birth, I’ll direct your attention here.
I hope you had a very good Christmas, and have a happy new year.
[…] Have a blessed and joyous Christmas one and all. (I’ll stick with the catchall as opposed to what Steve is trying). […]
Wow, thanks, Steve. Merry Christmas to you and yours, and may God bless all those in Milwaukee and its environs. Wherever I roam, it’s always my home.
Steve,it seems since I started blogging my family as grown beyond belief.
A very Blessed and Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Paul Socha
And a blessed Christmas to you and yours my friend.
Have a Merry Christmas and a great New Year.
And a Merry Christmas to you as well :)
Merry Christmas to you, Steve!
Merry Christmas Steve, to you and your family and to Shoe and all the boxes. God bless you as we head into the new year.
Merry Christmas, Steve!
Merry Christmas to Steve and his readers!
Thanks, Steve. Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!!! See you on Sunday.
Merry Christmas, Steve!
Have a wonderful holiday season. Merry Christmas!
Wow, quite a list.
Thanks, Steve and trust you and yours had a great holiday together. We did.
Dude.
Wow Steve, I think this post must have taken more work than the last 5 I’ve written.
Merry Christmas! (Or is it too late now to be saying that?)
Actually the hardest thing was finding a good, complete version of “Silent Night”.
