No blog updates until next Tuesday, the 27th. Enjoy the Holidays and days off with family and friends. I won’t be responding to emails to my Caps and Wizards accounts either until next Tuesday. Thank you for understanding.

Taking a Break
It is the holidays.
My family is back together.
Time to reflect. Time to volunteer.
Time to give back.
Time to vacation.
Time to clear one’s mind.
Time to heal.
I am going dark until the New Year. I am unplugging from you all.
No blogging.
No answering anyone’s emails at Washcaps or the TheWashwiz accounts.
If you have any venting or any requests or appeals or insults or immediate asks, they will have to be dealt with by somebody else for a week or so.
Try to enjoy life this holiday season. You can do it.
My family isn’t exchanging gifts this holiday season. We have all that we need. We are supporting two charities instead with help and with monies. So many people and organizations need help – real help – and have real needs. Sometimes I lose sight of that by reading so many emails from the same people with the same issues over and over again.
So it is time to chill. Time to reflect. Time to have some family fun. Time to give back. Time to show gratitude. Time for some privacy.
Happy holidays everyone.
What NOT to Do This Holiday Season
Here are 9 extravagant holiday gifts courtesy of CNN.com from the “needless markup” catalog. What an interesting and decadent list.
Have these folks lost touch or what? We have increasing hunger and homelessness issues in our country. Unemployment is at 10 percent. Foreclosures are up and this retailer wants us to buy cupcake cars?
Once again this holiday season, my family will be making a donation to the DC Central Kitchen in the name of my friends and business partners. We would rather feed the poor and hungry and try to help fellow citizens in downtown DC than look like a goofball wearing a psychedelic hat driving 7 miles an hour down our sidewalk. Are you kidding me?
Here is info on DC Central Kitchen. Be inspired. Help them to help others!
