Dear Santa " Rob " ,

All I want for Christmas, guess I should rephrase that, all I want for my

BIRTHDAY, December 23 is...

The Mini Gastric Bypass!

I have been of good behavior and good cheer through this process. As a

side note, my birthdays have been somewhat on the yucky side due to being

lost in the holidays. Not to complain now, this would be a special gift,

a REBIRTH of sorts for me. So I am not getting panicky when I hear all

these dates being shouted out for their surgery, and like Miracle on

34th Street, the Grinch, and the X Files, I BELIEVE! So feel free to

have Barbara, Diane or anyone, give me a call here at the White House to

schedule, the surgery okay?

I thank you in advance Santa " Rob " . No additional cards, gifts, flowers

or segments of the intestine are needed at this time.

Most sincerely,

Larice White, White House

thank you and ho, ho and all that!

was stirring not even a Krispy Kreme doughnut "
