Do you find it eerie that the crowded highways are empty on Christmas day?

Yeah but I think it would be cool to have a new national holiday called NO DRIVING DAY.  One day per year no one could drive a motorized vehicle except for police, fire and ambulance.\nIf you had to get somewhere, you had to walk or ride a bike.  \nIt would give perspective of how good we have it and what politicians/city planners have to deal with.

Probably because everybody flocks out to get their Christmas Trees? Or maybe it's when a lot of Christmas Tree farms open or something.

Maybe or the truck transporting them on the "high" way lost them due to an open door,and you happened to walk underneath that road.Maybe it will stop in a few seconds:then it was a truck.\nIf it keeps on raining it will be manna from heaven for you.Your daily bread.

On christmas eve, my family of 6 piles into the mini-van, wearing our pj's, and drive around looking at the soothing Christmas lights.  We listen to Christmas music on the radio during the drive, and a station that reports Santa's whereabouts for little kids.

For the first time I am spending Christmas away from my Wife and kids.  I know how you feel when it comes to  relitives that are a little odd, but it is a different story when you can not be there, it's that "You do not know what you have tell it is gone" thing.  \n\nI well be sitting in Iraq waiting for Feb to come around so my year well be over.  Well there is always Valentines Day... *S*

On the way home one day I could feel a possible flat tire. I was just about to pull off the road a young man in the car behind me waved me to stop. He got out and told me my tire was flat and smoking! He offered to change it for me and did so, even though he was already running late to work and had been warned of lateness before. I felt so greatful to him and I certainly hope he didn't get in trouble at work!\n\n************************************************************\n\nAnother time, 2 Christmases ago, my husband had been in the Army and was over in Iraq. He had been there 10 months and Christmas was going to be sad without him. His regular job here in the States is a full-time Fire Fighter, so his co-workers here on the department brought over a ton of toys for my then 2 year old son. It sure was generous of them and a bright spot in our Christmas here! I'll never forget that! :)

Yup. Specially at night when it's really coming down but in a way that it's not really all that cold. You know, gentle. The clouds low, but not depressing bouncing back all that available light almost warm and friendly. Like heaven is that much closer, it almost makes street lighting unnecessary and traffic is almost non existent. It makes everything look clean and new. There aren't any real shadows, and when the light does hit the snow, even in the shadows, the snow sparkles here and there like little stars or diamonds. I really love that.

I guess some people are just already looking forward to the holidays and getting excited and want to start early. I've even noticed that a lot of people are saying "happy holidays" already.\n\nPersonally I think it's too early for all this stuff and it kind of kills the fun of Christmas to have everything decorated and Christmas songs playing so early, because by the time it's Christmas people are already tired of it, it's not so special anymore. I think it would be nicer if everyone waited until December like they used to.\n\nBy the way, they started decorating shopping malls in my area in late October. I wonder how long it will be until we'll bump into Christmas trees in August.

YES!  I think it is awful. Black Friday is so much hype!  Most of those sales will be run again and again until Christmas.  Also, the busiest shopping day of the year is actually December 20!  I think it is sad but I guess if someone prefers to stand in line that is their choice.

You will feel empty and let down like the day after Christmas. So immediately begin psyching up for the next game so you won't become deeply depressed or anything. Just kidding, you know ;)\nP.S.\nLet us know how you feel. The US did so badly, I definately did not feel like the day after Christmas--more like the day after surgery!

Yes I agree with u,\nBlack is elegant,but not on Christmas day.\n\nMine would be dark red during the Christmas season.

Fairly unlikely. \n\nThis is considering all of the rigorous training that reindeer have to go through to pull a sleigh.  You thought watching "Highways of Death" was hard to watch in Drivers Ed.?  Well that's nothing to the horrific gore that reindeer go through.  Every film for them depicts terrible tramplings and ends with children wailing, barely able to get "Christmas is ru- ruined forEVER!" out.  \n\nGrandma has to take some of the blame for this.  She was high on eggnog AND forgot her medication.  I wouldn't be surprised if she was the one who started the whole thing.
