Welcome to the 72nd Humormeister's Forum edition

We've started the final stretch of 2013. The pace will soon get more hectic with the upcoming Christmas season.

It would be nice if we could take some of the commercialism out of the season and go back to a more relaxed, less stressful and happier Christmas season.

This time of year should be enjoyed, rather than be endured by so many. We should all plan for a happier, less stressful and more relaxed Christmas and make it the joyous time it is meant to be.
