happy holidays

I'm going to take a couple of weeks off. I should resume blogging some time in January.
I just wanted to say thanks and wish you all Merry Christmas.
See you in the New Year.

P.S.: I wanted to leave something cheerful, and found this pearl of wisdom from Fernando Sabino, a Brazilian author:
"No fim dá certo. Se não deu, é porque não chegou ao fim".
Roughly translating it goes something like this:
"It'll end up well. If it didn't, it's because it hasn't ended yet". (can anybody offer an alternative translation?)
