Pensive Fifties

these short stories are a LOT harder....

to write than they look! Thanks for taking the time!

Great

Thanks for sharing your thoughts during the holiday season.

Cute...

These were quite cute (intended in a good sense). I particularly enjoyed 'Stocking Fillers'. :)

Oops!

The first comment didn't reflect my vote at all. ;)

Love those 50's!

50 words & Ogg captures the feelings of Christmas like nobody else. Great words, as always.

What can ya say?.. classic og

Good as always sir... my hero.. the great og at his best

Warm Fuzzies

It gave me the warm fuzzies... so much in the world to be grateful for. Thanks for the reminder, Og.

Another one?

Can we expect another one like that for Valentine's day?

They are so good, so inspiring, so well written. You should make a point of doing one for every Holiday that exists. :)

Don't know why...my first one appeared as Anonymous :(

Nicely

done. Must be hard to restrict yourself to 50 words!

Black Tulip

Thanks

That's all. Just...thanks.

I liked that

I think I know how Anon from the United States feels. Thanks, Og. That was nice, and very well done.

Rumple

a smile on my face....

thank you Og and happy holidays.

Always, Lizzy

Reminder

An exceedingly well crafted reminder of the spirit of the season in pithy blurbs and covering important ground. Thank you Og.

Awww Og

Now I feel all ooey and gooey inside. Thanks for making me smile. Good luck!

Cookie :)

Very Nice!

Best of luck in the contest!

Wisdom

You can't buy it. You can't give it nor get it as a gift. You have to earn it. thanks for the reminders of the spirit that rules this day, so often lost in the more ostentacious celebration

Very inventive

and imaginative, like I've come to expect your submissions to be. Nicely done. Good luck in the contest.

great stuff

being a non american christian, I could only get some of the stories. However, the ones I got, were the ones I loved. Big applause for reminding me the spirit of xmas in so few words.

Bravo, Og!

You reminded me of Aesop's Fables with this entry. The stories are short, sweet and they make you think. Good job!

It's true

you filled our minds with the spirit of the holidays...

Good luck dearst Ogg...

Amen

Og, I love this!

Your creativity shines, and you tell an entire story is very few words...I admire you. My favorites were "Brotherhood" (for obvious reasons), "Santa's Grotto," and "Correctness" (the ending phrase "inclusion is not exclusive" is absolutely brilliant).

Interesting

and humorous, and brought back some very pleasant memories. I especially remember the chains made from strips of colored paper. We used to make them in elementary school but they probably can't do that now.
