The time has come for us to slow down over the holiday season, but first we want to wish all our readers a Happy Holidays and New Year. It’s time to kick back by the fire and get some relax time on the books.

We’ve had an amazing last 1/3rd of 2008 with our site re-launch and want to thank everyone who visits tFS for making it grow into one of the most unique blogs on the internet.

Posting will be intermittent while we work on new content for the upcoming year, so don’t get too feisty.

We’ve got some big plans for 2009, stick around and you’ll see what we mean. Keep it fresh and we’ll see you on the flip side.
