First of all, they're going to bring 40 people with them .. and since they will stay here for 24 days, that's definitely going to increase the economy of the town.

(Quote by - Cathy Whittlesey)

I sometimes think we expect too much of Christmas Day. We try to crowd into it the long arrears of kindliness and humanity of the whole year.
