Totally off-topic, as this has nothing to do with fandom/anime stuff. *LOL*

This is my favorite (anti)Christmas story - Nackles by Curt Clark.  I came across this little gem about a decade ago in Harlan Ellison's Slippage.  Good book - highly recommend it, if you ever get a chance to read it.

So without further ado, www.nackles.com/

Merry Christmas!
