Dagnabbit! These annual celebrations must CEASE IMMEDIATELY! After a while, they begin to come quicker and quicker and before long, your celbratory pastry becomes a conflagration laden with empty calories and the gaily wrapped packages contain items that you pile in the closet or the cellar or attic and never see again and eventually, they end up in a wake where others celebrate your passing!

STOP THE MADNESS!
