Twas the Night Before Christmas, and all through the house, not a creature was stirring ... except SteveU trying to think of a way to wish Happy Holidays to all the readers of DyeStat ... and that goes for YOU whether you celebrate/celebrated Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, something else, or nothing at all ... So here's my corny offering ... and here's to a great 2008 in the world of track and field and cross-country!!!
