A long time ago some shepards were keeping watch over their flock of sheep during the night time when suddenly an angel sent from God appeared before them. The shepards were filled with fear but then the angel said, "Fear not for I bring you tidings of great joy which will be for all the people of the earth. For on this day in Bethleham was born a savior who is Christ the Lord. This is a sign for you. You will find the boy wrapped in swadling clothes laying in a manger." Suddenly more angels appeared in the sky and said, "Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace and goodwill to mankind." The shepards were filled with joy and they set off to find this savior.

God bless the gold-hording cowboys!
During her daily six-hour post at Walgreen’s, Cindy Mendoza makes sure to say hello, goodbye and “Merry Christmas” to everyone — whether they put anything in the Salvation Army kettle or just walk on by. “I’m a people person,” Mendoza said. “I like interacting with the people.”
But she was left speechless when “the cowboy” emptied his pockets Friday, filling the kettle with silver and gold. A smattering of gold and silver coins were dropped into Mendoza’s kettle, with a value estimated between $8,000 and $10,000, depending on market prices.
It is the second time within a week bell ringers in Clovis have found gold coins in a Salvation Army kettle.
Got gold?

Cross-posted on Get Stuffed, but that is slower.
Christmas Eve filet/fillet of beef/the good stuff:
$22.95 per lb at awesome butcher (all trimmed and nice and ready for oven)
or
$9 per lb on sale at supermarket; I'd have to trim etc
Quality difference is tough call--I really don't know, but I know the butcher buys from local farms.

There are times that I get orders from a corporate client based in Canada and another in the Uk asking for flowers being sent to a po box address
Is this something that is done in Canada and the Uk that flowers get sent to a postal address?

i'm a bit overwhelmed. The assistants pool clubbed together and got me a hugely generous gift voucher in a music store, and my former bosses have offered me a hefty bonus for getting my bar exam. I guess that what i'm trying to say is that i hadn't realised how great and appreciated i am.

I'm sitting at my desk eating lunch and posting (so I'm turned away from the hallway which passes my office, there's just an opening, no door) when I hear, "so which one's Barb's office, this one here?"
I turn around to see a snotty looking woman holding a check. Therefore, she is most like a customer so I can't say what I wanted to.
