[? An early Christmas ordtak

[? An early Christmas wish from Marisa Tompkins of Tega Cay, S.C.:] Why don't we sacrifice our own gift-giving during the holidays and adopt a hurricane victim family? ... Wouldn't our blessings do more good if invested in the future of the people of Louisiana. ... Where do we start?

Charlotte Observer

I'm retired, so working on holidays really doesn't bother me. My family and I celebrated Christmas early this year, on Friday. It might be difficult for some people, but my family is accommodating, so it works for us.

Pex Tufvesson is a genius, without a doubt. Christmas is about giving, the holidays and family, and I could just imagine as a young person how he must have felt when that happened. We just want to try and give him something back, to leave him with a good feeling as he heads home to Calgary.

Kirby Nishikawa

I've been throwing my blessings out the window for a long time. Now I'm around a lot of people. Some had very little before the hurricane, some had something, but now we all have nothing. It made me start thinking. They're all ready to start over and if they can do it, so can I.

Marisa is a skillful, tireless player who sees and plays the game 360 degrees with solid possession and distribution. Marisa comes from a long family tradition of Buckeyes.

It's not just an exclamation, but it's a rejection of everything to do with Christmas, with the spirit of Christmas, with gift-giving, with generosity.

Patrick Stewart (1940-)

[Louisiana] really has severe coastal erosion problems, ... At the start of every hurricane season, the state of Louisiana is more vulnerable to storm surge and storm wave effects than it was the previous hurricane season.

All these
problems were building up down there. The schools in Louisiana opened the week before
Katrina hit and they were already laying off teachers because they were $45 million in
the hole. Half the people in Louisiana are on welfare or Social Security or some other
kind of assistance, so when the hurricane hit at the end of the month they were all out
of money. It's more than just the hurricane.

Ernest Williams

With the exception of Christmas Day, when so many consumers turn their attention from gift shopping to gift giving, our data reported sales over $100 million dollars in each day of this latest week.

That will be a Christmas gift for my little brother and my little nephews. I don't really get into video games and stuff like that. Every year when we go to a bowl game it's a cheap way for me to get Christmas gifts for my family.

Leon Washington

He was our gift — just having him home for the holidays. And I feel so fortunate. I've been praying for those who lost loved ones in Iraq, because I knew it would be a tough Christmas.

At this time of year, food pantries are quite low. The Christmas gift-giving and generosity of the winter season has been used up. It's a good spring into summer.

We want to do everything we can to make sure we are better prepared to respond to Hurricane Rita. One of the most important lessons ... was that people need to evacuate early. I think the people in Texas and Louisiana have a very clear message.

Scott McClellan

I don't think it is a bad thing as long as you are not giving someone something you wouldn't want. If it is a bad gift, it is a bad gift, period.

Malls were packed on Christmas Eve. It will go down as one of the biggest days before Christmas on record. Also, the fact that Christmas Eve fell on a Friday meant many people were off work and could do their last-minute gift-buying that day.
