We must remember the primary reason for Christmas -- to get me a new Xbox 360.
However we also should take some time to commemorate the birth of a certain Jew some millenia previous. As an aide-memoire you can download, print out, and assemble these Christmas creches. The one pictured is from a 1940's American design; there are others from Greek, German, and other traditions. Most of them are simple enough for children to cut out and put together.
You'll need a free Adobe Acrobat reader; a color printer and some heavier-grade construction paper. Also you'll need to register at the site.

Re: your entry of June 8, 2005 concerning " a new volume every couple of weeks of some encyclopedia offered by a grocery store for 2 bucks if your grocery order was above a certain level "
Can you remember the name of this series, it's driving me nuts? Much appreciated if you can help.
Regards, Peter

Gee, that's a tough one. They might have been rebranded as "The Safeway Encyclopedia" or something, but they were from an established maker. I found this list at Wikipedia -- two that fit the timeframe are the Encyclopedia Canadiana or the Encyclopedia International. You might want to take a look to see if any of the names ring a bell. Sorry I can't be more specific, but it was a long time ago.
