Ouch! Coffee coming through your nose HURTS! Thanks for making me smile (but only because my list is only *slightly* shorter and less ambitious than yours.
 
Wow- you are ambitious! I am only knitting 4 gifts this year and I haven't finished any of them yet.
 
Good luck with *THE* List! Don't forget to rest your hands every now & then!
 
Yes, my dear, you are crazy. I think it may be time to create a knitting hotline for crazy Christmas knitters. In fact I could use that myself...
