PromoGuy's Monday Mission 2.50


1. So, what do you want for Chanukah this year that you probably won't get? A new Commander and Chief.

2. What do you know you will be receiving for Chanukah this year? Actually, the holiday is already over, so I know what I got.

3. If you had the means to do so, what presents would you get some of your fellow bloggers? Be specific, it's more fun that way! Hmmm... well this is a tough one. For Stennie, I'd buy her the best supercomputer money can buy, with lifetime upgrades on all hardware/software and peripherals. Betster would get an exact replica of the music stand she broke, and the Westie of her dreams, her old desk back at work and her mortgage paid in full, including a new roof and all future repairs. LilyG would get.. um.. probably a gift certificate of an enormous sum to her favorite stores. I just don't know if I could figure out her taste, so this would probably be the best thing.
Mikey, well, he ain't a blogger, but he does write some good questions. I'd get Mikey a week alone with the Elv, all expenses for the both of them, paid. The program(me) is up to the Elv. Chrispy would get an entire home theatre, built to his liking, filled with every DVD he ever wants, forever.

Blamb would get a lifetime supply of tahini, and a bananna tree to call his own. Promoguy? I think I'd get the Promoguy a new-fangled digital camera so that he could put more pictures on his blog. If anyone else who bloggs reads this and wants to be included, say so in the comments and I'll set you up with a fantasy gift.

4. Do you support any organizations that provide for the less fortunate during the holidays? Or do any volunteer work? You know, I really used to, and I probably ought to, but lately the answer to that question is a big, fat "no".

5. Each year about this time, I notice Church attendance seems to spike, then drops off sharply after Christmas. It tickles me that these folks think they are pulling a fast one on the Big Guy. What is the most recent thing guilt has motivated you to do? Take on a lawsuit for /on behalf of my grandmother. Wish me luck!

6. According to the commercials, the only way to truly tell someone you love them on Christmas day is to let them "Unwrap a Jaguar" automobile. Are there any examples of excessive commercialism and/or blatant disregard for the "Christmas Spirit" that really get under your skin? Well, Chanukah isn't a commercial holiday at all, so I'd say "no" to that. And as for X-mas, I don't feel I get to have a say in this. I mean, not my holiday, you know?

7. I remember a song where the singers wished they could teach the world to sing, in perfect harmony. What would you like to teach the world? Tolerance.

BONUS: Do they know it's Christmas time at all? Come now, even the cave-dwellers of Iraq know it's Christmas.
