Allow me to start with a sincere Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and Happy Holidays to all. I wish everyone reading this nothing but the best for them and their families (and friends).
This year, we again had 149 members participate in the (now) annual TCDB Secret Santa. I cannot express enough my gratitude to all of you who sign on and send out gifts. Just wonderful people.
If you do not regularly read the forums, you may have missed that one of our participants this year (spikemg, Mike) passed away earlier this month. It appeared that it happened before he had the chance to send his gift. We have several "elves" who will be handling that one (and if anyone else wishes to be an "elf" for someone who missed out, send me a private message here and we can work something out). Let's take a moment to remember Mike and anyone else we lost this year. ... ... ... Thank you.

If you PM me a link to your blog post, User List, or other method of thanking your Secret Santa, I will add a link in this post. Feel free to leave thanks here for your Secret Santa whether you have something I can link or not. (Please do no use this to talk about not receiving something. We'll handle that privately and later.)
Again, thanks to all who participated and made this another success. I plan to organize it again for 2024. Thank you!
