Merry Christmas!



With presents to wrap, cookies to eat, and puppet-chow to make, Bertie, Mr. Punch and I are going to take a brief hiatus from our usual updates for a few days. However, make sure to come back on Friday, Christmas Eve and Christmas Day because there just might be some jolly surprises for you.

Regular posting will start again on December 27. We’ll see you then. On behalf of Bertie and Mr. Punch, I’d like to wish all of you a very merry Christmas and a happy Hanukkah.

Merry Christmas to you, you sweetie. And to Bertie and your slightly-scary puppet, and your mother the chef and frame-making father.

Hey...Merry Christmas to you, Joseph. Just want to thank you for all you do. I admire your ability to teach and entertain and your generosity for letting people into your thoughts and life every day. Thank you also for giving me somewhere to escape to when life gets too hectic. I can always come here and know I'll laugh, learn and, on Mondays, get hungry. All the best to you and Bertie and your family, buddy. Keep Mr. Punch away from the menorah and don't let him hit you with that candy cane. MB

Merry Christmas to one of my favorite goyim.  I agree with Matt.  You are the best and you're so brilliant and classy.  I feel honored to be a part of this community since last year.  So for God's sake, save some cookies for me.  You may be all sweet and smart, but you're greedy as hell about your mom's cooking!  I'm not fooled by the baby face and the shiny auburn hair--you're the Scrooge of cakes, a real miser, kiddo.  Oh, I kid, I kid.  Luv ya.  XOXOXO

Happy Christmas!  That's the way to do it.  Thanks for keeping Mr. Punch alive in the USA.

As a part Jewess,  part something Christian-ish, I'll wish you a happy Hanukkah and merry Christmas.  Sometimes I like swanky stuff so I come here and then I get depressed because everything I have sucks compared to the pretty stuff you write about.  I'm tots joking.  Maybe.  Be good and Santa will bring you a braided rope of Queen Mary's hair.  I bet you'd like that, you adorable freak.

Just love your card with the cute little Mr. Punch doll in the middle of the tree and the inimitable Bertie looking even cuter.. Have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New year.

Merry Christmas and happy New Year! Will there be a cottage cake this year? I remember last year's. Thanks for this great blog, Joseph, and for the daily enlightenment, drama, beauty and humor.
