 Congrats on hittin&#039; the bigs.</description>

		<description>Happy Season things!  Hope to see you back in Seattle sometime in the future!

Also, Penny Arcade gave you a nod with &quot;Best Music of the Year&quot; in a video game.  I thought that was pretty cool.</description>

		<description>Actually, National Wolf Awareness Week is the third week of October.

But it can&#039;t hurt to remember that wolves don&#039;t always kill people. Just usually.</description>

		<description>Dear Sir, well, whatever...
YOU made my day, kind of day, I believe. In Germany, I&#039;m supposed to come from..., we get very much many lots of such kind of humor not - actually never.
I&#039;m on the verge of (this phrase wasn&#039;t my idea, but I say/do everything my PC tells me... what? Eat a 200oz steak? Well, your wish is my command...)  drawing a beard and glasses on the golden buddha statue, which is on display in the closest museum. That&#039;s kind of hard work to daze the night-watchman, prance around the laser-beam-system (red light, sometimes purple... sometimes...), which would kill you if you touch it, go to the toilett and all the way back to the entrance hall, where the statue stands... that&#039;s really hard work, but I&#039;ll do it for you... er... maybe.
If you wouldn&#039;t be so far away and male, nevertheless I wouldn&#039;t ask you to marry me. But you&#039;re damn cool, Mr. Coulton... well, kind of.
Don&#039;t wonder why you cannot understand this script, me neither! You should know, that my English is not so good, but my German is much worse.
But actually I wanted to wish you Merry Christmas or whatever you want to celebrate.
In love (well, at least better than in hate...)
A German gay (I believe this is the right word for &quot;cool person&quot;, right?)
Greetings

P.S. I forgott to mention why I like you: you&#039;ve got beautiful eyes... and also you&#039;re music is in some degree o.k.</description>

		<description>Hey, here&#039;s a holiday miracle:  Monkey butlers on 5th Avenue!  That&#039;s right, there&#039;s an actual monkey butler (complete with tea tray and bow tie and jaunty fez) in one of the elaborate holiday windows at Bergdorf Goodman this year.  

I did not, however, spot Brian Dennehy.

		<description>&quot;Japan halts plan to kill humpback whales

By ERIC TALMADGE, Associated Press Writer Fri Dec 21, 5:34 PM ET

TOKYO - Humpback whales are safe — at least for now. Giving in to U.S. pressure and worldwide criticism, Japan&#039;s government on Friday announced a whaling fleet now in the Southern Ocean for its annual hunt will not kill the threatened species as originally planned. The fleet will, however, kill some 935 minke whales, a smaller, more plentiful species, and 50 fin whales.&quot;
