Did you know that in Iceland they exchange books on Christmas Eve? This is much better than the ugly sweaters I sometimes get (I am an INTELLECTUAL as you can see from my work on TUM).
It is not, however, better than getting a flat screen TV, or the latest game console or even the bottle of Jack Daniels that others have sent. But reading and chocolate are satisfactory until something better comes along. Plus this is very quaint and it makes me feel warm in my heart.
If you’d seen Icelandic sweaters (made from their long-haired sheep in natural colors, very soft and fluffy), you might not say they were ugly!
OK provide me a source, and I will do an ugly minute article. “The ugly sweater that is not ugly!”
Cheers,
Tim
