Chrismaas? Aredy?

Here at GATW (Greetings Across The World), the season kicks off in July (yes I said July)...Paying fees, hours of standing in various lines for visas.  Writing letters, meeting about meetings to have meetings.  Long distance phone calls.  Weeks of waiting for travel documents, searching for airline tickets, checking equipment, more fees, finding hotels...this year we had the pleasure of being fingerprinted as well! Lemme just say this...bring a book, an umbrella and a snack!     
After all that is done, we pack (making sure to weigh each item before placing it in its assigned spot in the luggage), measure our liquids, hop on a plane, try to bypass airport security without being harassed eerr sorry, I mean 'questioned for our own safety'....head to the JN Branch, set-up and wait for you.  So when you walk into your local JN branch and see us standing there with the lights and camera set-up in the middle of October...don't say....

"Chrismaas??........Aredy:?....how unno so previous?" 

truth is...we've been at it since July...where YOU been?  Merry Christmas!
