		<description><![CDATA[In the sprit of the holiday season I would like to make this rant about the blatant misuse of Father Christmas by millions of parents world wide. Throughout this highly commercialized world of Christmas. The sweet jolly old man has gone from the symbol of joy and happiness, to be the evil judge of goodness that has in recent years has never cut any kid off that I know of. Face it people you don&#8217;t really need it! Hasn&#8217;t our generation learned yet from Disney&#8217;s The Little Mermaid that things don&#8217;t matter as much as experiences. Then again, experiences are the reason that every parent will get most kids anything they want. You may deny it but for the same reason that you all use Santa to blackmail the kids in the first place you buy them anything. You are self-centered! Using Santa as an incentive to behave provided you &#8230; <a href="http://cefm.ca/2010/12/santa-as-blackmail/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[$167,000. That number is the value of the pledges being made today at the 2008 Empty Stocking Fund. It was a whole lot of fun and a whole lot of work. It seemed as if at the beginning that it was going to be a nightmare, but the number of pure professionals that came together to pull it off was awe inspiring. . . .]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Update: The show was cancelled due to the weather. Night-Rain-Fog-TV Cameras don&#8217;t mix well. Believe it or not the Santa Claus Parade is one my my favourite shows to work on each year. I also like seeing whatg is new each year and really enjoy coming home later to actually watch it. As a bonus for my readers I have the float list for this year&#8217;s parade.

		<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t have much time to make this post but doesn&#8217;t the ground look nicer when all the imperfections are covered by a soft fluffy white layer of freshly placed snow. To day before work I&#8217;m going to bring an Acer laptop back to The Source because the wireless does not have good reception to my network and that it is impossible to network it properly with only Windows Vista Home Basic on it. Also when you dim the screen so it doesn&#8217;t take your eyes out in a dark room it forgets it after several minutes and blinds you. It also does not have easy a find in the dark volume keys. Otherwise it was an okay laptop. I guess that is it for now. I&#8217;ll post back soon.]]></description>
