1. Egg Nog or Hot Chocolate? A soymilk hot chocolate with real whipped cream. You don't want to be near me when I've drank a glass of real milk. But the whipped cream does no harm.
2. Does Santa wrap presents or just sit them under the tree? Wraps them
3. Colored lights or white lights on tree/house? Colored solar Christmas lights on the lawn.
4. Do you hang mistletoe? You can't get real mistletoe out here.
5. When do you put your decorations up? At the last minute.
6. What is your favorite holiday dish (excluding dessert)? Boston cream pie -- I'm no traditionalist.
7. Favorite Holiday memory as a child? Seeing "Santa" look into my bedroom in silhouette on Christmas eve as I tried to sleep. Okay, it was my father, but _I_ believed it.
8. When and how did you learn the truth about Santa? Don't remember, but early. I was too damned logical.

11. Snow! Love it or Dread it? Love it! But we rarely get it.
12. Can you ice skate? No
13. Do you remember your favorite gift? A Vac-u-Form. A device which built up amazing amounts of heat and allowed you to make plastic vaccuum-formed replicas of about anything you could shove into the chamber. Kids today aren't allowed anything as good.

15. What is your favorite Holiday Dessert? Boston Cream Pie
16. What is your favorite holiday tradition? Cat bowling.
17. What tops your tree? Tree?
18. Which do you prefer Giving or Receiving? Giving. Presents don't excite me much.
