Christmas is almost upon us. Here in Chicago, Michigan Avenue has been lit up since November, Lincoln Park Zoo has its annual Zoo Lights, one radio station has been playing Christmas music for I don't know how long now, and, my personal favorite because of my Germanic history, the Christkindlmarket is in Daley Plaza. When you go to the stores, the sales are all around, the bell ringers are ringing their bells at nearly every entrance, and decorations abound.
