There's no Jimmy Dean nor Sal Mineo this Holiday Season.
It's days left before Christmas and couple of weeks before 2008 and Saipan tries to lift a smile to be merry this Holiday Season. However, high prices such the gasoline's and commodities impede the utter celebration. Though Christmas decors have been put in place along the road, as early as 9pm nightly the used-to-be glimmering Beach Road is now as dead as the breeze-less nights in December.
I believe the people will party and revel to keep a happy face this Christmas Season but at a very practical way.
So, question is what are the changes you are faced with this Season either at your home, in your workplace or within your community.
Are the flickering lights still on? Does Santa Claus still wear a bright red coat on your Christmas trees?

And the Grinch, with his Grinch-feet ice cold in the snow, stood puzzling and puzzling, how could it be so? It came without ribbons. It came without tags. It came without packages, boxes or bags. And he puzzled and puzzled 'till his puzzler was sore. Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before. What if Christmas, he thought, doesn't come from a store. What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more. ~Dr. Seuss
and Jim Carey stole my xmas presents...
All the Whos down in Whoville liked Christmas a lot,
but the Grinch, who lived just north of Whoville, did not.
The Grinch hated Christmas -- the whole Christmas season.
Oh, please don't ask why, no one quite knows the reason.
It could be, perhaps, that his shoes were too tight.
Or maybe his head wasn't screwed on just right.
But I think that the best reason of all
may have been that his heart was two sizes too small.
...the absence of commercial distractions gives me time to spend chatting with family (outdoors of course where there is breeze and no aircon) and just catching up on what's truly important about our lives (Christmas or not).
Merry Christmas everyone!
