It's about whatever I am thinking about when I open it up to update. No plan, no idea what will show up- they are my 'thoughts for the day.' Although throughout the course of the day I think about more things then what appears on my blog, for those of you who were questioning my mental acuity.

Ho Ho Ho?
Merry Christmas everyone!!! Ever wonder why Santa says "ho ho ho?" Where did he get that? Was he just trying to warm himself up- you know breathing out with gumption to warm up the front of your face and one of his elves said, "Hey Santa, that would make a great catch-phrase. You should start yelling that- it'd be good for PR. Makes your belly shake like a bowl full of jelly. That's the kind of image we want- jolly old St. Nick."
So of course I had to ask Tyler- remember from a previous blog that he's good for that. But he wasn't here. so of couse the next best, ask Jeeves at ask.com.
I went and looked- can't find it! Does anyone know? I found a wesite that said they couldn't find the origin of Santa's ho ho ho either! They found it mentioned in Shakespeare but nothing that would tie it to Christmas.
I am very curious now. Kristen said that maybe it was just his way of laughing- perhaps she is right but why? Who made it up? These deeper questions must be answered! If you know let me know please!
