[snarks_when_bored]

Sorry to have been mostly absent after starting this thread. I don't like to post and run, but I've been occupied with one-half of Wordsworth's "getting and spending" (you'll have to guess which half).

For the record (as if anybody's keeping records!), even if I don't respond to each comment posted to me on a thread I start, you can be sure that I've read them all (and all of the others, too). Often I decide not to respond just in order to keep the noise level down; but I always laugh at the jokes (intentional and otherwise).

And with that last, mildly snarky remark (got to keep up appearances), I'll say,

Merry Christmas and best regards to all...

And a very merry Christmas to you and yours.
