What kind of Holiday can we expect?

I don't see stockings stuffed with Gucci or Prada brands anytime soon. I have checked around town for some work to provide some extra funds for the holiday season and not surprisingly, there was not much enthusiasm in the atomsphere. The newspaper section for employment opportunies is nonexistence. The stores were mainly fulled with sarce,reluctant shopper. I too am in that class, the X-box and now lower priced Nintendo Wii seems so much less entertaining when more serious responsibilites contantly loom around.
I am not a total Scrooge( even if I am going to the movies lss this season).
A friend reminded that the intangibles are most impotant:health, peace, positive thinking. I don't believe that is absolutely false or absolutely true. So, I could only half-heartedly agree. Those that don't care always get the pleasure of indulgence, while the good gets the pain and burden of maturity.
