The Annual Christmas Letter, Part 8: 2007
Ah, 2007. It was the year I was locked in the house for a week while San Diego County burned down and we drew up plans for our divorce (aka, home remodeling). And to all the visitors from the State … Continue reading

The Annual Christmas Letter, Part 7: 2006
After a weekend of Christmas Partying and catching up on my “real” blogging obligations, I’m back. If you’re following along at home, 2006 was probably the dullest year of the last decade. Somehow, we still managed a potty joke in … Continue reading

The Annual Christmas Letter, Part 6: 2005
Tired of this yet? Better get a cup of coffee because we’re only up to 2005. If this, this, this, this or this didn’t bore you to death, the 2005 entry surely will. This is the actual picture we sent in … Continue reading

The Annual Christmas Letter, Part 5: 2004
Somewhere along the way we lost the 2003 letter. (So go read 2002, 2001, etc., etc.) It’s a pity because that letter would have won the Pulitzer for worst punctuation, ever, which is saying something about that letter versus others … Continue reading

The Annual Christmas Letter, Part 4: 2002
Sometimes, the years are just dull and lifeless for us with no inspiration for a good MockMas letter. 2002 was one of those years. If you want high comedy, you should read some of the letters we RECEIVE. That, or … Continue reading

The Annual Christmas Letter, Part 3: 2001
If you’re new to this, I’m posting old Christmas letters to catch up our friends and family who only just learned to read or callously tossed our screeds aside in prior years. 1999 and 2000 are behind the links. By … Continue reading

The Annual Christmas Letter, Part 2: 2000
In the event you thought Part 1 was a fluke, here’s our second attempt at (badly) writing a Christmas letter that doesn’t suck. Hell froze over that year and we expected to spend New Year’s Eve in the hospital, differing … Continue reading

The Annual Christmas Letter, Part 1: 1999
Fifteen years ago we started a tradition in my family that has become a holiday staple for our friends and the random family member with enough of a sense of humor to tolerate our occasionally pointed barbs. The annual MockMas … Continue reading

My wife’s at a conference at which I should be speaking
It’s a bit of a role reversal, what with me not on the road and all, but I’m good. I know how to heat a Hot Pocket and feed the kids from a bowl. McDonald’s is healthy, right? Still, she’s … Continue reading
