Welcome to the Questions Of The Day for Sunday December 11, 2016. As a Sagittarius born on December 11th, you are assertive, open and often restless in your interests. In all matters of life, you make sure that your needs are understood and met. Many people have a birthday today, most I've never heard of. If yours is today, have a good one.

Ho Ho Ho Santa wants to know...
Have you been naughty or nice?
More than once or twice?

Have you ridden in a one horse open sleigh?
Ever ridden any type of sleigh?

Have you jingled any bells?
Ever sneakily rung any doorbells?

Have you ever kissed under the mistletoe?
Ever stubbed a toe?
.
Have you ever built a snowman?
Ever had a snowball fight?

Made a snow Angel?
Thought you were an Angel?

Have you ever seen a partridge in a pear tree?
Seen any bird in a tree?

Have you ever been to any of these cities?
Santa Claus in Indiana, Georgia or Arizona?
Christmas Cove, Maine?
Christmas Valley, Oregon?
Christmas City in Arizona, Florida, Mississippi or Missouri?
Rudolph, Oklahoma?
Reindeer, Missouri?
Bethlehem, Kentucky?
Well then where have you been?

Is there anything special you'd like Santa to bring you?

Is there anything special that you plan to do for Christmas?

Do you celebrate Chanukah (Hanukkah) instead?

How about 'Festivus', do you celebrate it?

Cute Christmas jokey:
As little Emmy climbed onto Santa's lap, Santa asked the usual, "And what would you like for Christmas young lady?"
Emmy stared at him with an open mouth then gasped, "Santa didn't you get my E-mail?"

Quote of the moment....
Christmas waves a magic wand over this world, and behold, everything is softer and more beautiful. Norman Vincent Peale


A few historical events of note for December 11.
0361 – Julian enters Constantinople as sole Emperor of the Roman Empire.
1815 – The U.S. Senate creates a select committee on finance and a uniform national currency, predecessor of the United States Senate Committee on Finance.
1816 – Indiana becomes the 19th U.S. state.
1934 – Bill Wilson, co-founder of Alcoholics Anonymous, takes his last drink and enters treatment for the last time.
1941 – World War II: Germany and Italy declare war on the United States, following the Americans' declaration of war on the Empire of Japan in the wake of the attack on Pearl Harbor. The United States, in turn, declares war on them.
1946 – The United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund (UNICEF) is established.
1968 – The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus, featuring the Rolling Stones, Jethro Tull, the Who, Taj Mahal, Marianne Faithfull, and the Dirty Mac with Yoko Ono, is filmed in Wembley, London.
1972 – Apollo 17 becomes the sixth and last Apollo mission to land on the Moon.
2001 – The People's Republic of China joins the World Trade Organization (WTO).
2016 - Animal Crazy admirably adopts 101 Dalmatians, goes bonkers seeing spots day and night.

Well that's it for this Sunday's QOTD folks, hope you find it informative and entertaining. As usual all events, questions, comments etc were run by and approved by the firm of Hare, Brane and Ideaa, attorneys outlawed.

I've been nice.
More than once or twice?
Oh, yes. Lots of times.
Have you ridden in a one horse open sleigh?
No, that sounds like fun.
Ever ridden any type of sleigh?
No, never. We don't get snow here.
Have you jingled any bells?
Yes, I have a jingle bell card hanger on the hall closet door, and it jingles whenever I open it.
Ever sneakily rung any doorbells?
No, I've actually never done that. (See "Have you been naughty or nice?" )
Have you ever kissed under the mistletoe?
Probably, but it must have been ages ago since I don't remember.
Ever stubbed a toe?
Yes, just last week. Ouch!
Have you ever built a snowman?
Yes, but not until I was in my 60's (See "We don't get snow here.")
Ever had a snowball fight?
No

I'm nice, but not that nice!
Have you ever seen a partridge in a pear tree?

None of the above, but I used to live in Santa Clara.

Yes, wireless headphones.
Is there anything special that you plan to do for Christmas?
I will probably make potato pancakes with sour cream, applesauce and red cabbage on Christmas Eve but other than that, I haven't planned anything. Still working on the Christmas Day menu. Anything but turkey!

Do you celebrate Chanukah (Hanukkah) instead?
No, but I have friends who do. This year it starts on Christmas Eve and ends on New Year's Day.

How about 'Festivus', do you celebrate it?
I'm not familiar with any Festivus traditions, but lots of cultures have celebrations at this time of year, and it's all good.
