The Witte Times: The mother of all Christmas newsletters
This is the home on the Internet of The Witte Times, proof positive that some people have too much time on their hands, and that "some people" includes me.
The Witte Times is a Christmas newsletter that started out modestly enough in 1994 as a two-page black and white missive. It experienced a four-year hiatus and in 1999 re-emerged as a full color, four page wretched excess, which has been its status pretty much every year since then, except 2003, a three-pager the year my father died, and 2013, when we had three exchange students to cover in addition to the usual suspects and went to six pages.
I write and edit this thing in Word, which I must say is a lousy desktop publishing program. I probably should use some other program, but here at The Witte Times, we're all about tradition, even when it involves punishment.
We send out somewhere around 400 copies of this monstrosity a year.
