| A little more holiday decorating |
I've had the same 3M Command hooks on my windows and doors since the first winter I was here. They've held wreaths and other little, seasonal decorations for years. I decided to replace them this year, but every time I hung my wreaths, I a bit "thunk...

Our Holiday Wish? Come Together for a Benetwit to Benefit the 100 Neediest Cases
We recently asked our Twitter friends and followers about their wishes for the world this season (in less than 140 characters), and here's what they said: @stephaniethum Mine is that babies, toddlers + kids be hugged, never hit. Encouraged, never humiliated. That parents understand, not yell. @timjeby My one wish for the world is that its inhabitants spend as much time & energy striving for civility as it does promoting hatred & anger. @finedogcreative Of my many wishes, one would be Snuggies for everyone! With that and milk and cookies the world would be a better place. @TJParrish A realization that every action has an impact. @davidcraigstl Free wi-fi from sea to shining sea! @tressalynne Stop puppy mills, backyard breeders, animal hoarders & encourage responsible spay/neutering. @lindabeth Here's a wish - to see people embrace positive thinking more than negative to improve self, their work, and their community. @PSimpso That all children will learn, grow and develop to realize their full potential. @ideaguy42 I wish that everyone looks deeply into the beauty of something outside their comfort zone. @JohnBFischer And world peace. . . So what's our wish? Good question. Our wish is that community members would rise up and support each other in times of plenty and in times of need. That's why we're inviting you to join us on Wednesday, December 2, for the St. Louis Holiday "Benetwit" at Third Degree Glass Factory. What's a "benetwit," you ask? Another good question! Benetwit [ ben - uh-twit] -noun
1. When Tweeps and their friends get together for charity. The evening includes a cash bar, complimentary hors d'oeuvres, glassblowing demonstrations and holiday shopping.
