I've often been accused by close family members of being
slooooow to catch the holiday spirit. They've even associated me
with the phrase Bah, Humbug!!! Well, in my defense, I simply don't
want to peak too early. Starting holiday shopping in early July
would have me peaking in July instead of late December. Hence, just
to PROVE I am not a Scrooge in 2011, I present this hide to you as
a holiday gift in the form of a little fun (the puzzle shouldn't
prove too difficult) and an easy smiley (pretty straightforward
hide). Have a Happy Holiday, everybody!!!
